2 SAFETY ƽ WARNING DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in your seat. ALWAYS shift your weight in the direction you are turning. DO NOT shift your weight in the opposite direction of the turn. Shifting your weight in the opposite direction of the turn may cause the inside drive wheel to lose traction and the wheelchair to tip over. DO NOT shift your weight or sitting position toward the direction you are reaching as the wheelchair and/or seating system (if any) may tip over. ALWAYS keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts to avoid injury. DO NOT use with a broken or missing joystick knob. DO NOT use if joystick does not spring back to the neutral position or becomes sticky or sluggish. DO NOT use if joystick boot is torn or damaged. ALWAYS check foam grips for looseness before using the wheelchair. If loose, contact a qualified technician for instructions. DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with the wheel locks. Wheel locks are not brakes. DO NOT engage or disengage the motor locks until the power is in the off position. DO NOT use your wheelchair unless it has the proper tire pressure (P.S.I.). DO NOT overinflate the tires. Failure to follow these recommendations may cause the tire to explode and cause bodily harm. The recommended tire pressure is listed on the side wall of the tire. A Note to Wheelchair Assistants When assistance to the wheelchair user is required, remember to use good body mechanics. Keep your back straight and bend your knees whenever tilting wheelchair or traversing curbs or other impediments. Also, be aware of detachable parts such as arms or legrests. These must NEVER be used to move the wheelchair or as lifting supports, as they may be inadvertently released, resulting in possible injury to the user and/or assistant(s). When learning a new assistance technique, have an experienced assistant help you before attempting it alone. Invacare® TDX®SP, TDX SR 18 Part No 1143190
