safety tips
1. Before entering or leaving the chair, engage the
dual wheel locks against the tires on both rear
wheels. Make sure the front casters are in the
forward position before transferring into or out of
the chair.
2. Do not move forward on the seat while leaning
forward out of the chair. If it is absolutely
necessary to do so, make sure the front casters
are in the forward position. If you are picking an
object up from the floor, go past the object, and
then go backwards. The casters will then swing to
the forward position.
3. Leaning out of the transport chair without
proper assistance could cause tipping.
4. Do not step on the foot plates when
transferring, as this could cause tipping.
Note: You and your aendant should consult a
qualified professional for correct techniques on
ramp negotiations.

lock. Swing outward and rearward. Simply li up
and off to remove the footrest.

without the assistance of an aendant.
