WARNING

DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery. This will change your center of gravity and may cause you to tip over.

NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 3.5.

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