READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE OPERATING YOUR WHEELCHAIR
1 INTRODUCTION
Important safety, operating, and maintenance instructions that warrant
your attention are included in this owner's manual. Read the entire
manual carefully before operating your new wheelchair, and refer to it as
often as necessary to help maintain good performance standards.
Consult your healthcare professional and Graham-Field dealer for as-
sistance in developing and learning safe and effective techniques for
performing your daily activities according to your individual physical
abilities and needs, and to make certain that your wheelchair is properly
prescribed and adjusted for your use.
The safety precautions in this manual are general warnings intended to
be used only as basic guidelines. You may find it necessary to develop
your own methods for safely solving frequently encountered challenges.
Again, consult your professional medical advisors for their recommenda-
tions about safety methods, and never hesitate to ask for their assistance.
Your wheelchair should receive frequent, regularly scheduled mainte-
nance, including an inspection of the mechanical parts, to ensure proper
operation. Some suggested inspection procedures, troubleshooting pro-
cedures, and adjustment procedures are included in this manual. When
it comes to service and repair, remember that your Graham-Field dealer
knows your wheelchair best.
All information and specifications in this manual are current at the time
of printing. However, because it is Graham-Field policy to continually im-
prove the quality and reliability of all our products, we reserve the right to
make changes at any time without notice.
