WARNING
ALWAYS perform this procedure in the presence of an assistant. The
position of the footrest, camber tube, back angle, the tautness of the back
upholstery as well as the user's condition are directly related to the
wheelchairs stability. Any change to one (1) or any combination of the
five (5) may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability. Use EXTREME
caution when using a new seating position. The addition of anti-tippers
may be required .
After ANY adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure all
attaching hardware is tightened securely - otherwise injury or damage
may result.
