CAUTION:

Stability - Wheelchair is designed to be safe and stable as long
as center of gravity is maintained while going about normal
activities. Care must be taken while performing activities that
shift your center of gravity in the chair. Never reach so far that
require you to shift in the seat or bend over out of the chair.
When you have to reach for objects that require you to lean,
be certain front casters are pointing in a forward position that
extends the wheel base and will stabilize the chair.
Ramps - Be sure of your own capabilities, limitations and
strength before attempting to go up a ramp. Correct
techniques on ramp negotiation should be shown to you by
a qualified professional. Assistance is recommended when
going up or down inclines greater than 10
o
. If you must stop on
an incline, avoid sudden, abrupt movement when you resume
movement. Because of backward angle of the chair, sudden
abrupt movement could cause instability. Attempting to use
the wheel lock brakes could result in accidental locking, tipping
to one side, or cause a sudden stop. Avoid changing direction
when going down an incline, as this could result in instability
of tipping over.

What are the safety precautions and maintenance instructions I should follow for the proper usage of the wheelchair?

To ensure the proper usage of the Drive Medical Silver Sport wheelchair, it is important to follow the safety precautions and maintenance instructions outlined below: 1. Engage the wheel locks before getting in or out of the chair, leaning forward, or using an elevator or wheelchair lift.

Replace them if they become severely worn or show signs of cracking. 5. Periodically inspect and lubricate the front casters. Grease the caster stem bearings and wheel bearings to ensure smooth operation. 6. When adjusting the length of the footrests or leg rests, make sure the user is sitting in the wheelchair with their feet on the foot plates. The front rigging should not cause uncomfortable pressure on the thighs. 7. Inspect the large rear wheels at least once a month to ensure proper tightness. If a wheel wobbles or is loose, tighten the axle bolt slightly. 8. Wipe the chrome parts with a clean, soft cloth at least once a week. Use auto wax or similar products to clean all metal parts, and dry them immediately if exposed to moisture. 9. To open the wheelchair, tilt it to one side and push down on the seat rail until it is fully opened. To close or fold the chair, first fold the foot plates to a vertical position, then lift the seat from the front and back edges. 10. If you need to remove the arms, depress the spring button and lift the arms out of the front and rear sockets. Remember to read the manual carefully for safe usage and understanding of maintenance instructions.
