Invacare® TDX® SP2 Series Adequate mobility and upper body strength is required to perform this activity independently. 1. Transfer to and from the wheelchair in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional to determine individual safety limits. 2. Turn power button OFF BEFORE entering or exiting the wheelchair. 3. Reduce gap between transfer surface B and wheelchair seat C to the minimum distance A necessary to perform transfer. 4. ALWAYS ensure both motor locks are engaged and wheel hubs (if equipped) to prevent the wheels from moving before transferring into or from the wheelchair. 5. Align casters parallel to the drive wheels to improve stability during transfer. 6. Invacare strongly recommends ordering the optional wheel locks as an additional safeguard if not present. 7. Flip up footplates or swing footrests outward. 8. 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. 2.5 Pinch Points WARNING!
