3 SAFETY 3 Safety The safety section contains important information for the safe operation and use of this product. 3.1 General Guidelines ! WARNING DO NOT use this product or any available optional equipment without first completely reading and understanding these instructions and any additional instructional material such as owner’s manuals, service manuals or instruction sheets supplied with this product or optional equipment.
3 SAFETY 3.2 Operating Information Anti-tippers WARNING Anti-tippers are specific to the different seat-to-floor angles and/or seat-to-floor heights. Refer to Anti-tippers/Wheel Locks on page 54 for correct usage and adjustment. If these requirements cannot be achieved, DO NOT use the wheelchair. Contact a qualified technician. If changing the seat-to-floor height with or without a change to seat-to-floor angle, the correct anti-tippers MUST be used to maintain a 1½ to 2-inch ground clearance.
3 SAFETY General Warnings WARNING To determine and establish your particular safety limits, practice bending, reaching and transferring activities in several combinations in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional before attempting active use of the wheelchair. Avoid storing or using the wheelchair near open flame or combustible products. Serious injury or damage to property may result. DO NOT stand on the frame of the wheelchair. DO NOT use the footplate as a platform.
3 SAFETY Information for Healthcare Professionals/Assistants WARNING When assistance to the wheelchair user is required, remember to use good body mechanics. Keep your back straight and bend your knees whenever tilting the wheelchair or traversing curbs, or other impediments. Make sure occupant’s hands and body are clear of all pinch points before reclining back. Use caution, otherwise injury may occur.
3 SAFETY Seat Positioning Strap WARNING ALWAYS wear your seat positioning strap. Inasmuch as the seat positioning strap is an option on this wheelchair (you may order with or without the seat positioning strap), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the seat positioning strap as an additional safeguard for the wheelchair user. The seat positioning strap is a positioning strap only. It is not designed for use as a safety device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts.
3 SAFETY Wheel Locks WARNING DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with wheel locks. Wheel locks are not brakes. If the wheelchair is equipped with push to lock wheel locks, elevating legrests, and wheel lock extension handles, the wheel lock extension handles MUST be removed before swinging the elevating legrests to the side, otherwise injury or damage may result. Interference between the top of the elevating legrest and the wheel lock extension handle causes the wheel lock to disengage.
3 SAFETY 3.3 Safety/Handling of Wheelchairs Safety and handling of the wheelchair require the close attention of the wheelchair user as well as the assistant. This manual points out the most common procedures and techniques involved in the safe operation and maintenance of the wheelchair. It is important to practice and master these safe techniques until you are comfortable in maneuvering around the frequently encountered architectural barriers. Use this information only as a basic guide.

3 SAFETY Reaching, Leaning and Bending Forward or Sideways WARNING DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them up from the floor by reaching down between your knees. DO NOT attempt to reach or lift objects that would cause you to shift weight to one side of the wheelchair. Reaching or lifting objects on the side of the wheelchair can cause the chair to tip over sideways.
3 SAFETY Coping With Everyday Obstacles Coping with the irritation of everyday obstacles can be alleviated somewhat by learning how to manage your wheelchair. Keep in mind your center of gravity to maintain stability and balance. Tipping WARNING DO NOT tip the wheelchair without assistance. When lowering the front casters of the wheelchair, DO NOT let the wheelchair drop the last few inches to the ground This could result in injury to the occupant and/or damage to the wheelchair.
3 SAFETY Method 2 - Wheelchair Without Step Tubes This method requires two assistants. The second assistant should be positioned at the front of the wheelchair lifting upward on a non-removable (non-detachable) part of the wheelchair frame when lifting the wheelchair and stabilizing the wheelchair when the wheelchair is being lowered to the ground. The first assistant should stand on the sidewalk and turn the wheelchair so that the rear wheels are against the curb.
3 SAFETY Moving Up Stairs 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. If necessary, rotate the anti-tippers so the wheels are facing up. One assistant (positioned behind the wheelchair), securely grasps a non-removable (non-detachable) part of the wheelchair for leverage and tilts the wheelchair back to the balance point. After the wheelchair has been tilted back to the balance point, the assistant behind the wheelchair backs the wheelchair up against the first step.
3 SAFETY Escalators 3.4 WARNING DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors. Serious bodily injury may occur. Transferring To and From Other Seats WARNING Before attempting to transfer in or out of the wheelchair, every precaution should be taken to reduce the gap distance. Turn both casters parallel to the object you are transferring onto. Also be certain the wheel locks are engaged to help prevent the wheels from moving.
3 SAFETY 3.5 Unfolding and Folding Wheelchair WARNING ALWAYS keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury. DO NOT place hand or fingers on the underside of the seat frame rail when opening or closing the wheelchair. DO NOT sit or transfer into the wheelchair unless it is fully open and the seat frame rails are fully seated into the side frame H-blocks.
3 SAFETY Folding Sling Seat If the wheelchair is equipped with carry straps, the wheelchair may be folded by pulling up on the straps. 1. Swing footrest/legrest in locked position to the front of the wheelchair. 2. Pivot footplates upward to vertical position. 3. With both hands, grasp the middle of the seat upholstery at the front and back edge and flip up. Or, tilt the wheelchair to one side and close by the push handles.

4 SAFETY INSPECTION/TROUBLESHOOTING 4 Safety Inspection/Troubleshooting 4.1 Every six months or as necessary, take your wheelchair to a qualified technician for a thorough inspection and servicing. Regular cleaning will reveal loose or worn parts and enhance the smooth operation of your wheelchair. To operate properly and safely, your wheelchair MUST be cared for just like any other vehicle. Routine maintenance will extend the life and efficiency of your wheelchair.
4 SAFETY INSPECTION/TROUBLESHOOTING ❑ Inspect handrims for signs of rough edges or peeling. ❑ Inspect axle assembly for proper tension by spinning caster. Caster should come to a gradual stop. ❑ Adjust front casters/forks bearing system if wheel wobbles noticeably or binds to a stop. ❑ Ensure wheel bearings are clean and free of moisture. ❑ Check headtube locknuts for tightness. ❑ Inspect casters for cracks and wear. ❑ Inspect front casters for cracked, bent or broken spokes.
4 SAFETY INSPECTION/TROUBLESHOOTING Inspect/Adjust Periodically ❑ Inspect frame and crossbraces for loose or missing hardware. ❑ Inspect for bent frame or crossbraces. ❑ Check that wheel locks are easy to engage. ❑ Inspect seat and backs for rips and sagging. ❑ Check that there is no excessive side movement or binding in the rear wheels when lifted and spun. ❑ Inspect handrims for signs of rough edges or peeling. ❑ Adjust front casters/forks bearing system if wheel wobbles noticeably or binds to a stop.
4 SAFETY INSPECTION/TROUBLESHOOTING 4.3 Maintenance Maintenance Safety Precautions WARNING After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is tightened securely. Otherwise injury or damage may result. DO NOT overtighten hardware attaching to the frame. This could cause damage to the frame tubing. Suggested Maintenance Procedures 1. 2. 3. 4. Before using your Jymni Series wheelchair, make sure all nuts and bolts are tight.
