WHEELCHAIR USER
As a manufacturer of wheelchairs, Invacare endeavors to supply a wide variety of wheelchairs to
meet many needs of the end user. However, final selection of the type of wheelchair to be used
by an individual rests solely with the user and his/her healthcare professional capable of making
such a selection.
WHEELCHAIR TIE-DOWN RESTRAINTS AND SEAT POSITIONING STRAPS
Wheelchair users should NOT be transported in vehicles of any kind while in wheelchairs. As of
this date, the Department of Transportation has not approved any tie-down systems for
transportation of a user while in a wheelchair, in a moving vehicle of any type.
It is Invacare’s position that users of wheelchairs should be transferred into appropriate seating

SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES
When cleaning rear cane or hand grip areas use only a clean towel lightly dampened with cool water.
Verify that grips are dry prior to use. Use of soap or ammonia based cleaning solutions will result in the
hand grips sliding off the cane assembly. Failure to observe this warning may result in injury to the user
or bystanders.
If the wheelchair is exposed to extreme temperature (above 100°F or below 32°F), high humidity and/or
becomes wet, prior to use, ensure that the handgrips do not twist on the handle. Otherwise, damage or
injury may occur.
DO NOT traverse, climb or go down ramps or slopes greater than 9°.
DO NOT attempt to move up or down an incline with a water, ice or oil film.
DO NOT operate on roads, streets or highways.
DO NOT attempt to ride over curbs or obstacles. Doing so may cause your wheelchair to tip over and
cause bodily harm to you or damage to the wheelchair.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat.
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to pick them up from the floor by reaching down between
your knees.
DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery to reach objects behind you, as this may cause the
wheelchair to tip over.
DO NOT shift your weight or sitting position toward direction you are reaching as the wheelchair may
tip over.
DO NOT attempt to stop a moving wheelchair with wheel locks. Wheel locks are not brakes.
DO NOT tip the wheelchair without assistance.
DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors. Serious bodily injury may occur.
Before attempting to transfer in or out of the wheelchair, every precaution should be taken to reduce
the gap distance. Turn both casters parallel to the object you are transferring onto. When transferring
to and from the wheelchair, ALWAYS engage both wheel locks.
DO NOT attempt to lift the wheelchair by any removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by means of any
removable (detachable) parts of the wheelchair may result in injury to the user or damage to the
wheelchair.

SECTION 2—SAFETY/HANDLING OF WHEELCHAIRS

SECTION 2—SAFETY/HANDLING OF WHEELCHAIRS
Safety/Handling of Wheelchairs
Safety and handling of the wheelchair require the close attention of the wheelchair user as well as the assistant. This manual
points out the most common procedures and techniques involved in the safe operation and maintenance of the wheelchair.
It is important to practice and master these safe techniques until you are comfortable in maneuvering around the frequently
encountered architectural barriers.
Use this information only as a basic guide. The techniques that are discussed on the following pages have been used
successfully by many.
Individual wheelchair users often develop skills to deal with daily living activities that may differ from those described in
this manual. Invacare recognizes and encourages each individual to try what works best for him/her in overcoming
architectural obstacles that they may encounter. However, all warnings and cautions given in this manual MUST be heeded.
Techniques in this manual are a starting point for the new wheelchair user and assistant with “safety” as the most important
consideration for all.

Stability and Balance
WARNING

ALWAYS wear your seat positioning strap. Inasmuch as the seat positioning strap is an option on
this wheelchair (you may order with or without the seat positioning strap), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the seat positioning strap as an additional safeguard for the wheelchair user.
The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt only. It is not designed for use as a safety device
withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts. If signs of wear appear, belt
MUST be replaced IMMEDIATELY.
To assure stability and proper operation of your wheelchair, you MUST maintain proper balance at all times. Your
wheelchair has been designed to remain upright and stable during normal daily activities as long as you do not move
beyond the center of gravity.
Virtually all activities which involve movement in the wheelchair have an effect on the center of gravity. Invacare
recommends using seat/chest positioning straps for additional safety while involved in activities that shift your weight.
DO NOT lean forward out of the wheelchair any further than the length of the armrests. Make sure the casters are pointing
in the forward position whenever you lean forward. This can be achieved by advancing the wheelchair and then reversing
it in a straight line.

Coping With Everyday Obstacles
Coping with the irritation of everyday obstacles can be alleviated somewhat by learning how to manage your wheelchair.
Keep in mind your center of gravity to maintain stability and balance.

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 tipping the wheelchair or traversing curbs, or other impediments.
DO NOT attempt to lift the wheelchair by any removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by means of any removable (detachable)
parts of the wheelchair may result in injury to the user or damage to the wheelchair.
If the wheelchair is exposed to extreme temperature (above 100°F or below 32°F), high humidity and/or becomes wet, prior
to use, ensure handgrips do not twist on the wheelchair’s handle ‐ otherwise damage or injury may occur.
Also, be aware of detachable parts such as armrests 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.

SECTION 2—SAFETY/HANDLING OF WHEELCHAIRS

WARNING
DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have to move forward in the seat or pick them up from
the floor by reaching down between your knees.
The size/position of the front casters, size/position of the rear wheels, use of anti-tipper model, as
well as the user condition directly relate to the stability of the wheelchair. Any change to one or any
combination of the six may cause the wheelchair to decrease in stability. These adjustments MUST
be performed by a qualified technician.
Many activities require the wheelchair owner to reach, bend and transfer in and out of the wheelchair. These movements
will cause a change to the normal balance, the center of gravity, and the weight distribution of the wheelchair. To determine
and establish your particular safety limits, practice bending, reaching and transferring activities in several combinations in
the presence of a qualified healthcare professional before attempting active use of the wheelchair.
Proper positioning is essential for your safety. When reaching, leaning, or bending forward, it is important to use the front
casters as a tool to maintain stability and balance.

Reaching, Leaning and Bending Forward
WARNING

DO NOT attempt to reach objects if you have
to move forward in the seat or pick them up
from the floor by reaching down between your
knees.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 2.1.
Position the front casters so that they are extended as far
forward as possible and engage wheel locks.

FIGURE 2.1 Reaching, Leaning and Bending Forward

Reaching and Leaning Backwards
WARNING

DO NOT lean over the top of the back upholstery to reach objects behind you, as this may
cause the wheelchair to tip over.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 2.2.
Position wheelchair as close as possible to the desired
object. Point front casters forward to create the longest
possible wheelbase. Reach back only as far as your arm will
extend without changing your sitting position.

FIGURE 2.2 Reaching and Leaning Backwards

Tipping
WARNING

DO NOT tip the wheelchair without assistance.

Tracer® EX2

Part No. 1110546

SECTION 2—SAFETY/HANDLING OF WHEELCHAIRS
When tipping the wheelchair, an assistant should grasp the back of the wheelchair on a non‐removable (non‐detachable)
part. Inform the wheelchair occupant before tipping the wheelchair and remind him/her to lean back. Be sure the occupant’s
feet and hands are clear of all wheels and/or pinch points.
After mastering the techniques of tipping the wheelchair, use one of the following methods to tackle curbs, short stairs, etc.

Method 1 - Wheelchair With Step Tubes
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 2.3.
Place foot on the step tube and begin to tilt the wheelchair toward you. Apply a continuous downward motion until the
balance point is achieved and the front casters clear the curb. At this point, the assistant will feel a difference in the weight
distribution.

WARNING

When lowering the front casters of the wheelchair, DO NOT let the wheelchair drop the
last few inches to the ground. This could result
in injury to the occupant and/or damage to the
wheelchair.
Roll the wheelchair forward and slowly lower the front of
the wheelchair in one continuous movement onto the
sidewalk. Push the wheelchair forward until the rear wheels
roll up and over the curb.

Step Tube

FIGURE 2.3 Method 1 - Wheelchair With Step Tubes

Method 2 - Wheelchair Without Step Tubes

WARNING

ALWAYS check hand grips for looseness before using the wheelchair. If loose and/or worn,
replace IMMEDIATELY.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 2.4.
This method requires two assistants. The second assistant
should be positioned at the front of the wheelchair lifting
upward on a non‐removable (non‐detachable) part of the
wheelchair frame when lifting the wheelchair and
stabilizing the wheelchair when the wheelchair is being
lowered to the ground.
The first assistant should stand on the sidewalk and turn the
wheelchair so that the rear wheels are against the curb. Turn
the anti‐tippers so the anti‐tip wheels are pointing up. The
wheelchair should be tilted back to the balance point and, in
one continuous upward movement, the rear wheels should
be pulled up and over the curb. DO NOT return the front
casters to the ground until the wheelchair has been pulled
backward far enough for the front casters to clear the edge
of the curb.

FIGURE 2.4 Method 2 - Wheelchair Without Step
Tubes

WARNING

When lowering the front casters of the wheelchair, DO NOT let the wheelchair drop the last few
inches to the ground. This could result in injury to the occupant and/or damage to the wheelchair.

Roll the wheelchair backward and slowly lower the wheelchair in one continuous movement. Turn the anti‐tippers so the
anti‐tip wheels are facing down.

Escalators
WARNING

DO NOT use an escalator to move a wheelchair between floors. Serious bodily injury may occur.

Stairways
WARNING
ALWAYS wear your seat positioning strap. Inasmuch as the seat positioning strap is an option on
this wheelchair (you may order with or without the seat positioning strap), Invacare strongly
recommends ordering the seat positioning strap as an additional safeguard for the wheelchair
user. The seat positioning strap is a positioning belt only. It is not designed for use as a safety
device withstanding high stress loads such as auto or aircraft safety belts. If signs of wear appear,
belt MUST be replaced IMMEDIATELY.
DO NOT attempt to lift a wheelchair by lifting on any removable (detachable) parts. Lifting by
means of any removable (detachable) parts of the wheelchair may result in injury to the user or
damage to the wheelchair.
ALWAYS check hand grips for looseness before using the wheelchair. If loose and/or worn,
replace IMMEDIATELY.
Extreme caution is advised when it is necessary to move an occupied wheelchair up or down the
stairs. Invacare recommends that, if possible, the user be removed from the wheelchair prior to
moving. Invacare recommends using two assistants and making thorough preparations. Make
sure to use only secure, non-detachable parts for hand-held supports.
NOTE: For this procedure, refer to FIGURE 2.5.
Follow this procedure for moving the wheelchair between
floors when an elevator is not available:
1.

If necessary, rotate the anti‐tippers so the wheels are
facing up.

After the wheelchair has been tilted back to the balance
point, one assistant (in the rear) backs the wheelchair
up against the first step, while securely grasping a
non‐removable (non‐detachable) part of the wheelchair
for leverage.

The second assistant, with a firm hold on a
non‐detachable part of the framework, lifts the
wheelchair up and over the stair and steadies the
wheelchair as the first assistant places one foot on the
next stair and repeats STEP 1.

The wheelchair should not be lowered until the last
stair has been negotiated and the wheelchair has been
rolled away from the stairway.

If necessary, rotate the anti‐tippers so the wheels are
facing down.

Part No. 1110546

SECTION 3—SAFETY INSPECTION/TROUBLESHOOTING

CAUTION
DO NOT overtighten hardware attaching to the frame. This could cause damage to the frame tubing.
Suggested Maintenance Procedures
1.

Before using your wheelchair, make sure all nuts and bolts are tight. Check all parts for damage or wear and replace.
Check all parts for proper adjustment.

CAUTION
As with any vehicle, the rear wheels, casters and tires should be checked periodically for cracks
and wear, and should be replaced if damaged.
2.

The rear wheels, casters and tires should be checked periodically for cracks and wear, and should be replaced by a
qualified technician if damaged.

NOTE: Tire wear is excessive if:
• Pneumatic Tires ‐ there is missing tread or the tires are bald.
• Urethane Tires ‐ there are cuts, surface defects or the tires are loose on the rims.
• Rubber Tires ‐ 30% or more of the tire has worn away.
NOTE: Invacare recommends that tires and casters be replaced every five years.
3.

Periodically adjust wheel locks in correlation to tire wear. Refer to Adjusting Patient Operated Wheel Locks on page 36.

Periodically check handrims to ensure they are secured to the rear wheels. If loose, have them tightened by a qualified
technician.

Periodically check caster wheel bearings to make sure they are clean and free from moisture. Use a Teflon™ lubricant if
necessary.

WARNING
When cleaning rear cane or hand grip areas use only a clean towel lightly dampened with cool
water. Verify that grips are dry prior to use. Use of soap or ammonia based cleaning solutions
will result in the hand grips sliding off the cane assembly. Failure to observe this warning may
result in injury to the user or bystanders.
6.

Hand grips should be checked monthly for wear/looseness/deterioration. Clean if desired. Replace if looseness or
deterioration is found.

Check upholstery for sagging, rips or tears.
