6. Have the rider make small movements of the hand rims to stay in balance.
Failure to heed these warnings could result in damage to the chair, a fall, a tip-over and/or
loss of control, causing severe injury to the rider, yourself or others.
Descending A Curb Or Single Step
WARNING: Follow these steps to help a rider descend a curb or single step going
backward:
1. Stay at the rear of the chair.
2. Several feet before you reach the edge of the curb or step, turn the chair around
and pull it backward.
3. While looking over your shoulder, carefully step back until you are off the curb or
stair and standing on the lower level.
4. Pull the chair toward you until the rear wheels reach the edge of the curb or step.
Then allow the rear wheels to slowly roll down onto the lower level.
5. When the rear wheels are safely on the lower level, tilt the chair back to its
balance point. This will lift the front casters off the curb or step.
6. Keep the chair in balance and take small steps backward. Turn the chair around and
gently lower front casters to the ground.
Failure to heed these warnings could result in damage to the chair, a fall, a tip-over and/or
loss of control, causing severe injury to the rider, yourself or others.
Climbing a Curb or Single Step
WARNING: Follow these steps to help the rider climb a curb or single step going forward.
1. Stay behind the chair.
2. Face the curb and tilt the chair up on the rear wheels so that the front casters clear
the curb or step.
3. Move forward, placing the front casters on the upper level as soon as you are sure
they are past the edge.
4. Continue forward until the rear wheels contact the face of the curb or step. Lift and
roll the rear wheels to the upper level.
Failure to heed these warnings could result in damage to the chair, a fall, a tip-over and/or
loss of control, causing severe injury to the rider, yourself or others.
