Be aware of ramp slope.

6WDELOL]LQJ:KHHOFKDLUV Powered and manual wheelchairs are designed to remain upright and stable during normal operation. All activities which involve movement in a wheelchair have an effect on the combined center of gravity of the occupant and wheelchair. Be aware of the Rampvan ramp slope (angle). The slope of the ramp has a direct effect on the center of gravity. Keep in mind your center of gravity and your ability to maintain stability and bal- ance.

Do not operate your wheelchair on the Rampvan ramp without assistance if you are unable to maintain stability and balance. Counterbalance devices (anti- tippers) may be available from your wheelchair repre- sentative to enhance stability and balance.

Do not tilt your wheelchair without assistance. Op- erate the wheelchair at a slow and constant speed when on the ramp. Do not accelerate suddenly when on the ramp. Do not raise the front wheelchair wheels (pull wheelie) when on the Rampvan ramp.
