INTRODUCTION Congratulations on the purchase of your KARMA product. This well-designed wheelchair provides excellent customer satisfaction at a very competitive price. Before using your wheelchair, please read the following material, particularly the Safety Tips. It is important that you consult your healthcare professional and authorized Karma supplier to make certain that your chair is properly adjusted for your safety.
SAFETY TIPS Anti-tippers Anti-tippers will prevent the wheelchair from tipping over backward. Antitip tubes are available from your local supplier. Karman recommends antitip tubes be used at all times on these wheelchair models. Footrests To install the foot rest, be sure the diagonally sliced area between the axle and the nut is lined up before it is insert into the frame.

2. Make sure the axles are inserted properly. After mounting the axles, check to be sure the wheels won't release without pushing release button and insure that the axles are locked in place (check the release buttons extend completely, rear wheels spin freely but can't be pulled off), and two small elastic balls should come out.
