3 SAFETY Escalators ƽ WARNING DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors. Serious bodily injury may occur. Transferring To and From Other Seats ƽ 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. Wheelchairs with adjustable height armrests only: Adjust armrests to lowest position prior to transferring into or out of wheelchair - otherwise injury or damage may occur. CAUTION When transferring, position yourself as far back as possible in the seat. This will help prevent damaged upholstery and the possibility of the wheelchair tipping forward. This activity may be performed independently provided you have adequate mobility and upper body strength. Position the wheelchair as close as possible alongside the seat to which you are transferring, with the front casters pointing parallel to it. Remove or flip up the armrest. Engage wheel locks. Swing away or remove front rigging. Shift body weight into seat with transfer. During independent transfer, little or no seat platform will be beneath you. Use a transfer board if at all possible.
