Transfers

Transferring onto and off of your power chair requires a good sense of balance. Always have an attendant or healthcare professional present while learning to properly transfer yourself.

To eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends that you or a trained attendant perform the following tasks before attempting a transfer:

νTurn the power off. See VII. “Operation.”

νEnsure your power chair is not in freewheel mode. See IV. “The Jazzy 1143.”

νTurn both caster wheels toward the transfer destination to improve power chair stability during transfer.

νMake sure both armrests are flipped up or removed from your power chair.

νFlip the footrest up, or move the leg rests aside; this will help to keep your feet from getting caught on the footrest or the leg rests during the transfer.

νReduce the distance between your power chair and the object you are transferring onto.

WARNING! Before transferring, position yourself as far back as possible in the power chair seat to prevent the power chair from tipping forward during transfer and causing injury.

WARNING! Avoid using your armrests for weight bearing purposes. Such use may cause the power chair to tip and cause personal injury.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the footrest. Such use may cause the power chair to tip and cause personal injury.

Positioning Belts

Your authorized Pride provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your power chair safely.

WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your power chair, make sure it is fastened securely. Serious personal injury may result if you fall from the power chair.

WARNING! The positioning belt is not designed for use as a seat belt in a motor vehicle. Nor is your Jazzy suitable for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle should be properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer.

WARNING! Do not sit on your power chair while it is in a moving vehicle. Personal injury and/or property damage may result.

WARNING! Always be sure your power chair and its batteries are properly secured when it is being transported. Failure to do so may result in personal injury and/or damage to your power chair.
