SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES

Weight Training

ProBasics DOES NOT recommend the use of its wheelchairs as a weight training apparatus. ProBasics wheelchairs have not been designed or tested as a seat for any kind of weight training. If occupant uses said wheelchair as a weight training apparatus, ProBasics shall NOT be liable for bodily injury and the warranty is void.

Weight Limitation

The wheelchair has a weight limitation, including seating system and accessories, of 250 lbs. Refer to Percentage of Weight Distribution on page 22. ProBasics recommends that only heavy-duty wheelchairs should be used for individuals weighing more than 250 lbs. Further, the activity level of the individual wheelchair user is important. For instance, a 170 lb. active wheelchair could subject the wheelchair to more stress than a 250 lb. user. ProBasics recommends that very active users consider the use of heavy-duty wheelchairs.
