2. If you suffer from pressure sores, or if you are at risk that
they will occur, you may need a special seat system or a
device to control your posture.
Consult your Healthcare Professional to find out if you
need such a device for your well-being.
D. FASTENERS
WARNING
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.

2. If fasteners become loose, tighten them immediately.
3. Over- or under-tightened fasteners can cause damage to
your chair or it’s components.
E. FOOTPLATE & FOOTRESTS
WARNING
1. At the lowest point, footrests should be
at least 2 1/2 inches
(65 mm) 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:
Make sure your feet do not “hang up” or get caught in the
space between the footrests.
Avoid putting weight on the footrests, as the chair may tip
forward.
Remove or swing the footrests out of the way, if possible.

locks are disengaged.
G. ON/OFF SWITCH
WARNING

stop, and may
cause you to fall.
2. To slow your chair to a stop, return the joystick to neutral.
H. PNEUMATIC TIRES
WARNING
Proper inflation extends the life of your tires and makes your chair

side and result in a loss of control.
