Safety requires the constant attention of the wheelchair user and the
attendant. It is extremely important to learn and always use safe methods
of performing basic daily activities. Always consult your healthcare
professional to determine those methods most suitable for your
individual abilities.
Protect yourself and your wheelchair by having your Traveler HTC
serviced regularly. Whenever any part of your Traveler HTC is not
functioning properly, contact your Graham-Field authorized distributor
immediately, as a hazardous situation could result, causing personal
injury or damage to your wheelchair. ONLY EXCELLENT CONDITION
IS ACCEPTABLE WHERE SAFETY IS CONCERNED. Periodic
inspection, adjustment, and replacement of worn parts will provide many
years of superb performance.
