E. FASTENERS
Many of the screws, bolts and nuts on this chair are special high-strength fasteners.
Use of improper fasteners may cause your chair to fail.
1. ONLY use fasteners provided by an authorized supplier (or ones of the same type and
strength, as indicated by the markings on the heads).
2. Over- or under-tightened fasteners may fail or cause damage to chair parts.
3. If bolts or screws become loose, tighten them as soon as you can.If you fail to heed
these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur and
cause severe injury to the rider or others.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur
and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
F. FOOTRESTS
1. At the lowest point, footrests should be AT LEAST 2" off the ground. If set too LOW,
they may “hang up” on obstacles you can expect to find in normal use. This may
cause the chair to stop suddenly and tip forward.
2. To Avoid A Trip Or Fall When You Transfer:
a. Make sure your feet do not “hang up” or get caught in the space between the
footrests.
b. Avoid putting weight on the footrests, as the chair may tip forward.
3. NEVER lift this chair by the footrests. Footrests detach and will not bear the weight of
this chair. Lift this chair only by non-detachable parts of the main frame.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur
and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
G. OFFSET SEATING (OPTIONAL)
1. A fore/aft change in the backrest position will affect the center of balance of your
chair.
2. Only use this option when installing a forward offset mounted seating solution, not
using the standard back sling.
3. Each time you adjust or modify the backrest plane location, the change may make it
easier to tip backwards. Use anti-tips until you adapt to the change, and are sure you
are not at risk to tip over.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur
and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
H. PNEUMATIC TIRES
Proper inflation extends the life of your tires and makes your chair easier to use.
1. Do not use this chair if any of the tires is under- or over-inflated. Check weekly for
proper inflation level, as listed on the tire sidewall.
2. Low pressure in a rear tire may cause the wheel lock on that side to slip and allow
the wheel to turn when you do not expect it.
3. Low pressure in any of the tires may cause the chair to veer to one side and result in
a loss of control.
4. Over-inflated tires may burst.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur
and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
