Page 8: Section 1-General Guidelines
Service Information After the first six months of operation, inspect all pivot points and fasteners for wear. If the metal is worn, the parts MUST be replaced. Make this inspection every six months thereafter. Regular maintenance of the mobile recliner and accessories is necessary to assure proper operation. Operation Information Check all parts for shipping damage. In case of damage, DO NOT use. Contact Carrier/ Dealer for further instructions. ALWAYS keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury. DO NOT use near an open flame or heat source, as all upholstery materials, even though treated with flame retardant, can ignite when exposed to open flame. Rear caster wheels MUST be locked during user transfer to or from recliner and while tilting and/or reclining or inclining (sitting up). Ensure that casters are free of debris. Casters and axle bolts require inspection every six months to check for tightness and wear. DO NOT enter or exit the recliner when footrest is elevated. DO NOT sit on the footrest when recliner is extended. The recliner will tip and bodily injury may occur. DO NOT push or pull footrest to position the recliner. DO NOT stand on the footplates. When getting in or out of the wheelchair, make sure that the footplates are in the upward position or swing the footrests towards the outside of the wheelchair. DO NOT place hands or feet into any openings when adjusting the recliner. Attendant or care provider should always verify placement of user’s hands and feet prior to adjusting the recliner. Failure to do so may result in serious bodily injury. Invacare Mobile Recliners Part No. 1141494... -
Page 9: Weight Limitation
DO NOT attempt to stop the recliner with the wheel locks, while in motion. Wheel locks are not brakes. Before attempting to transfer in or out of the recliner, every precaution should be taken to reduce the gap distance. Turn the recliner toward the object you are transferring onto. When transferring to and from the recliner, ALWAYS engage both wheel locks. Special care MUST BE taken with people that have physical limitations which may require an assistant. DO NOT traverse, climb or go down ramps or slopes greater than 9°. Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured for use in conjunction with Invacare accessories. Accessories designed by other manufacturers have not been tested by Invacare and are not recommended for use with Invacare products. Weight Limitation The weight limitation for Invacare Mobile Recliners is 250 lbs (113.6 kg). The weight limitation for model IH6065WD Wide Recliner is 400 lbs (181.44 kg). The tray for models IH6074A, IH6065A, and IH6077A has a weight limitation of 40 lbs (18.2 kg). Recline Option Operated by an Attendant Test the recline feature of the recliner first without an occupant to ensure the gas cylinder is operational. DO NOT operate the recline option if the gas cylinder is not operational. ALWAYS make sure that the recliner is stable before using the recline option. Make sure the patient is properly positioned in the recliner before reclining or inclining to maintain maximum stability and safety. When returning the occupant of the recliner to the full upright position, more body strength will be required for approximately the last twenty degrees of incline (sitting up). Make sure to use proper body mechanics (use your legs) or seek assistance to avoid injury. Physical limitations of a user and larger occupants of the recliner can present conditions that can injure the assistant. When in doubt, assure that additional assistants are present before operating the recline feature. Part No. 1141494 Invacare Mobile Recliners... -
