Reaching, Leaning and Bending Forward or Sideways

WARNING

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.

DO NOT attempt to reach or lift objects that would cause you to shift weight to one side of the wheelchair. Reaching or lifting objects on the side of the wheelchair can cause the chair to tip over sideways.

DO NOT lean over the tope of the back upholstery to reach objects behind you, as this may cause the wheelchair to tip over.

Forward

Position the front casters so that they are extended as far forward as possible and engage wheel locks.

Backwards

Position wheelchair as close as possible to the desired object. Point front casters forward to create the longest possible wheelbase. Reach back only as far as your arm will extend without changing your sitting position.
