b. Avoid putting weight on the footrests as this may cause the chair to tip.

GET READY
J. CURBS & SINGLE STEPS
Before riding over curbs, or negotiating even a single step, ALWAYS ask for assistance first. Curbs and steps
can cause tipping and serious bodily harm. When in doubt as to our ability to avoid, or traverse any obsta-
cle, ALWAYS ask for help. Be aware of your riding skills and personal limitations, develop new skills only
with the help of a companion.
For Attendant: Each person who assists the rider with curbs and steps should read and follow all instruc-
tions and warnings pertaining to attendants, and caregivers.
1. Do not try to climb a high curb or step (more than 4 inches high) UNLESS you have help. Doing so may
cause your chair to exceed its balance point and tip over.
2. With the help of an attendant, go straight up and straight down a curb or step. If you climb or
descend at an angle, a fall or tip-over is likely.
3. Be aware that the impact of dropping down from a curb or step can damage your chair or loosen fas-
teners.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur and can
possibly cause severe injury to the rider or others.
K. CLIMBING A CURB OR SINGLE STEP
For Attendant: follow these steps to help the rider climb a curb or single step moving BACKWARD:
1. Stay behind the chair.
2. Continue backward until the rear wheels contact the face of the curb or step. Lift and roll the rear
wheels to the top of the curb.
3. Pull the chair backwards until the caster wheels have cleared the edge of the curb and return the chair
to it's rolling position.
If you fail to heed these warnings damage to your chair, a fall, tip-over or loss of control may occur and
cause severe injury to the rider or others.
