OPERATING THE WHEEL LOCKS

To activate the wheel locks:
1 . Press down on the pedals (A) until they stop .
2 . To release the wheel locks, depress the upper face of the pedal with your foot or lift up with your toe under the
pedal . The upper portion of the pedal will rest against the chair frame when the wheel lock is released .
WARNING
• Only use wheel locks during passenger transfer or without a passenger on the chair . Tipping could occur if the
chair is moved while the wheel locks are applied, resulting in injury to the passenger or operator and/or damage
to the chair .
• Wheel locks are only intended to help prevent the empty chair from rolling while unattended, and to aid in
passenger transfer . A wheel lock may not provide sufficient resistance on all surfaces or under loads .
• Never leave a passenger unattended on the chair or injury could result . Hold the chair securely while a passenger
is on the chair .
• Never use a wheel lock on a chair with excessively worn wheels . Using a wheel lock on a wheel with less than a
5" diameter could compromise the holding ability of the wheel lock, possibly resulting in injury to the passenger or
operator and/or damage to the chair or other equipment .
