Days Healthcare Escape Wheelchair
User Manual
Many activities require the wheelchair owner to reach, bend and transfer in and
out of the wheelchair. These movements will cause a change to the normal
balance, the centre of gravity and weight distribution of the wheelchair.
To determine and establish your particular safety limits, activities involving
reaching, bending and transferring should first be practised with a qualified
health care professional.
WARNING! Do not tilt the wheelchair without assistance.
1) The attendant should grasp the push handles securely,
making sure that the handle grips are firmly attached.
2) Inform the chair occupant before tilting the chair and
remind him/her to lean back. Be sure the occupant's feet
and hands are clear of all wheels.
3) Place one foot on the tipping lever and apply a continuous
motion until the balance point is achieved. At this point, the attendant will
feel a difference in weight distribution (this usually occurs at about 14°
angle).
4) Turn the wheelchair in the direction required.
5) Lower the front end, placing one foot on the tipping lever and grasping the
push handles to slowly lower to the ground.
NOTE After mastering the techniques of tilting the chair, use this procedure
to tackle kerbs, steps, etc.
!
1) The attendant should stand on the pavement and turn the
chair so that the rear wheels are against the kerb.
2) The chair should be tilted back to the balance point and in
one continuous movement, the rear wheels should be pulled
up and over the kerb.
NOTE: We recommend that two attendants are utilised for this
procedure.
