Controller Settings/Repair or Service
Set-up of the Electronics Control Unit is to be performed only by a qualified technician.
The final adjustments of the controller may affect other activities of the wheelchair.
Damage to the equipment could occur if improperly set-up or adjusted.
Wheelchairs should be examined during maintenance for signs of corrosion (water
exposure, incontinence, etc.). Electrical components damaged by corrosion should be
replaced IMMEDIATELY.
Wheelchairs that are used by incontinent users and/or are frequently exposed to water
may require replacement of electrical components more frequently.
Operation Information
Ensure that driving surfaces, ramps, lifts, elevators, etc. are capable of supporting
combined weight of user and wheelchair (for a 500 lbs user, the combined weight could
be up to 800 lbs).
Performance adjustments should only be made by professionals of the healthcare field or
persons fully conversant with this process and the driver's capabilities. Incorrect settings
could cause injury to the driver, bystanders, damage to the chair and to surrounding
property.
After the wheelchair has been set-up, check to make sure that the wheelchair performs to
the specifications entered during the set-up procedure. If the wheelchair does not
perform to specifications, turn the wheelchair off immediately and reenter set-up
specifications. Repeat this procedure until the wheelchair performs to specifications.
ALWAYS shift your weight in the direction you are turning. DO NOT shift your weight in
the opposite direction of the turn. Shifting your weight in the opposite direction of the
turn may cause the inside drive wheel to lose traction and the wheelchair to tip over.
The arms on the M94 wheelchair are designed as armrests ONLY. The arms are not
designed to support the full weight of the wheelchair user.
