GENERAL GUIDELINES

DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them up from the floor by reaching down between your knees.

The back height, seat depth, back angle, seating system, tilt angle, seat height, size/ position of the rear wheels, size/position of the front casters, as well as the user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to one (1) or any combination of the eleven (11) may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST be performed by a qualified technician.

CENTER OF

GRAVITY

UNOCCUPIED OCCUPIED

Many activities require the wheelchair owner to reach, bend and transfer in and out of the wheelchair. These movements will cause a change to the normal balance, the center of gravity, and the weight distribution of the wheelchair. To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice bending, reaching and transferring activities in several combinations in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional BEFORE attempting active use of the wheelchair.

Proper positioning is essential for your safety. When reaching, leaning, or bending forward, it is important to use the front casters as a tool to maintain stability and balance.
