WARNINGWHEELCHAIR SELECTION
Motion Composites manufactures different models of wheel-
chairs to meet the needs of the end users. However, Motion
Composites is not a health care advisor, and we are not
aware about the individual condition or needs of the wheel-
chair user. Therefore, the final selection of the particular
model, how it is adjusted, the type of options and accessories,
rest solely with the wheelchair user and the health care pro-
fessional adviser. Choosing the best chair and setup for your
safety depends on the following criteria:
1. Your disability, strength, balance and coordination;
2. The types of hazards you must overcome in daily use
(where you live and work and oth-er places you are likely
to use your chair); and
3. Your need for options for your safety and comfort (such as
anti-tippers, positioning belts or special seating systems).
If you ignore this warning, you may endanger your health.
WARNINGTIEDOWN SYSTEM
Motion Composites recognizes that the safest transit option
for a wheelchair user is to transfer in an appropriate seat of
the vehicle and to use the motor vehicle restraint system.
If a paratransit system is to be used, ensure that the
wheelchair is equipped with the Motion Composites anchor
system. It must also be ensured that the straps, hooks and
tie-downs of the Paratransit Vehicle’s tie-down system meet
the safety standards of the province, state or country where
the user is being transported, and installed according to the
tie-downs manufacturer’s standards.
Motion Composites can not recommend, and does not
recommend, tie-downs or manufacturers od tie-down
systems.
WARNINGSEATING RESTRAINTS
It is the obligation of your dealer and health care
professionals who are advising you to determine if you
require a seating restraint or positioning system in order to
ensure that you can safely operate your wheelchair.
Serious injury can occur in the event of a fall from
a wheelchair.
