Make sure that the legrest is completely dry before using.

The use of an ALR can affect the stability of the chair. Be especially careful when riding up or down slopes.

Depending on the flexibility and strength of the user, it may not be possible for them to adjust the height of the manual ALR by themselves. This may need to be carried out by attendant.

With the leg in an elevated position it is more likely that the user could injure the leg on obstacles in the environment. Make sure that you are aware of your terrain and be cautious when driving the chair that your leg cannot impact on anything around you.

Do not drive your chair too close to any source of open flame. With your leg in an elevated position you may not know that the bottom of the footplate is getting hot.

Do not hang items from the legrest, or allow anyone to stand on the legrest with it in the elevated or non-elevated position. This could cause injury to them, to you or could cause damage to the chair.

Inspect the legrest, footplate, calfpad and heel loop regularly for signs of damage or wear. Damage to the legrest could result in the users leg being dropped and could cause injury.
