VIII. WARNINGS: COMPONENTS AND OPTIONS
E. FOOTRESTS
WARNING
1. At the lowest point, footrests should be AT LEAST 2 1/2 INCHES off
the ground. If set too LOW, they may “hang up” on obstacles you
can expect to find in normal use. This may cause the chair to stop
suddenly and tip forward.
2. To Avoid A Trip Or Fall When You Transfer:
a. Make sure your feet do not “hang up” or get caught in the space
between the footrests.
b. Avoid putting weight on the footrests, as the chair may tip forward.
3. NEVER lift this chair by the footrests. Footrests detach and will not
bear the weight of this chair. Lift this chair only by non-detachable
parts of the main frame.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair
, a fall, tip-over or loss of control
may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
F. PNEUMATIC TIRES
WARNING
Proper inflation extends the life of your tires and makes your chair
easier to use.
1. Do not use this chair if any of the tires is under- or over-inflated.
Check weekly for proper inflation level, as listed on the tire sidewall.
2. Low pressure in a rear tire may cause the wheel lock on that side to
slip and allow the wheel to turn when you do not expect it.
3. Low pressure in any of the tires may cause the chair to veer to one
side and result in a loss of control.
4. Over-inflated tires may burst.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control
may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
G. POSITIONING BELTS (OPTIONAL)
WARNING
Use positioning belts ONLY to help support the rider’s
posture. Improper use of these belts may cause severe injury
to or death of the rider.
1. Make sure the rider does not slide down in the wheelchair seat. If
this occurs, the rider may suffer chest compression or suffocate due
to pressure from the belts.
2. The belts must be snug, but must not be so tight that they interfere
with breathing. You should be able to slide your open hand, flat,
between the belt and the rider.
3.
A pelvic wedge or a similar device can help keep the rider from slid
-
ing down in the seat. Consult with the rider
’s doctor, nurse or thera-
pist to find out if the rider needs such a device.
4.
Use positioning belts only with a rider who can cooperate. Make
sure the rider can easily remove the belts in an emergency
.
5. NEVER Use Positioning Belts:
a. As a patient restraint. A restraint requires a doctor’s order.
b. On a rider who is comatose or agitated.
c. As a motor vehicle restraint. In an accident or sudden stop the
rider may be thrown from the chair
. Wheelchair seat belts will not
prevent this, and further injury may result from the belts or straps.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control
may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
A. ANTI-
TIP TUBES (OPTIONAL)
WARNING
Anti-tip tubes can help keep your chair from tipping over backward in most
normal conditions.
1. Sunrise Recommends Use Of Anti-Tip Tubes:
a. UNLESS you are a skilled rider of this chair and are sure you are
not at risk to tip over.
b. Each time you modify or adjust your chair. The change may
make it easier to tip backward. Use anti-tip tubes until you adapt
to the change and are sure you are not at risk to tip over.
2. When locked in place (in the “down” position) anti-tip tubes should
be BETWEEN 1 1/2 to 2 inches off the ground.
a. If set too HIGH, they may not prevent a tip-over.
b. If set too LOW, they may “hang up” on obstacles you can expect in
normal use. If this occurs, you may fall or your chair may tip over.
3. Keep Anti-Tip Tubes Locked In Place UNLESS:
a. You have an attendant; or
b. You have to climb or descend a curb, or overcome an obstacle
and can safely do so without them. At these times, make sure
anti-tip tubes are up, out of the way.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair
, a fall, tip-over or loss of control
may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
B. ARMRESTS
WARNING
Armrests detach and will not bear the weight of this chair.
1. NEVER lift this chair by its armrests. They may come loose or break.
2. Lift this chair only by non-detachable parts of the main frame.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control
may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.
C. CUSHIONS & SLING SEATS
WARNING
1. Quickie sling seats and standard foam cushions are not designed for
the relief of pressure.
2. If you suffer from pressure sores, or if you are at risk that they will
occur, you may need a special seat system or a device to control
your posture. Consult your doctor, nurse or therapist to find out if
you need such a device for your well-being.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of
control may occur and cause severe injury to the rider or others.

chair parts.
