Ki Mobility does not recommend the installation of power drive systems on any Rogue ALX

Rogue ALX / Little Wave wheelchairs have not been designed or tested as power wheelchairs. If
you add a power drive system to a Rogue ALX or Little Wave wheelchair, be sure the manufacturer
of the power drive system has validated and approved the combination of the power drive system
and Rogue ALX or Little Wave wheelchair as safe and effective.

serious injury or death.
F. Ascending Stairs
• Have at least two people, who have sufficient strength and skill to handle the weight of the
user and wheelchair, assist when trying to go up a set of stairs in this wheelchair.
• Move the wheelchair and user backwards up the stairs.
• Position one person behind the user and one person in front of the user. The person in front
must hold onto a non-removable part of the wheelchair.
• The rear attendant tilts the chair back and they both lift together. Take one step at a time.
• This may require the anti-tips be flipped up or removed. Make sure the anti-tips are
reattached or flipped back down before using the wheelchair.
WARNING: Failure to comply with the instructions above could result in serious injury or death.
G. Descending Stairs
• When descending a set of stairs the user should be facing forward.
• A person behind the user, who has sufficient strength and skill to handle the weight of the
user and the wheelchair, should tilt the chair backward and let the chair down the stairs
one step at a time on the rear wheels.
• This may require that anti-tips be flipped up or removed. Make sure the anti-tips are
reattached or flipped back down before using the wheelchair.
