7 TRANSPORT READY OPTION (TRRO)

￿ WARNING

Seat angle is factory set at time of shipment. Adjustments to the wheelchair may void WC 19 compliance. To maintain compliance, refer to wheelchair service manual before making any adjustments.

DO NOT alter or substitute wheelchair frame parts, components, or seating systems.

A sudden stop and/or collision may structurally damage your wheelchair. Wheelchairs involved in such incidents should be replaced.

Spill proof batteries, such as “gel cells”, should be installed on wheelchairs to be used during travel in a motor vehicle. Transport ready packages are not retrofittable to existing models and are not field serviceable.

7.1About Transport Ready Packages

TRRO includes four factory-installed transport brackets and a wheelchair anchored pelvic belt. TRRO has been crash-tested in accordance with ANSI/ RESNA WC Vol 1 Section 19 Frontal Impact Test requirements for wheelchairs with a 130 lb crash test dummy, which corresponds to a person with a weight of 125 to 165 lbs. for Junior seat sizes or a 168 lb crash dummy, which corresponds to a person with a weight of 165 to 300 lbs. for Adult seat sizes.

As of this date, the Department of Transportation has not approved any tie-down systems for transportation of a user while in a wheelchair, in a moving vehicle of any type. It is Invacare’s position that users of wheelchairs should be transferred into appropriate seating in vehicles for transportation and use be made of the restraints made available by the auto industry. Invacare cannot and does not recommend any wheelchair transportation system.
