VI. WARNINGS: FALLS & TIP-OVERS
A. CENTER OF BALANCE
WARNING
Dependent mobility devices are designed for stability and
performance. The point where this device will tip forward, back,
or to the side depends on its center of balance and stability. The
center of balance is also affected by:
• The seat height and seat angle.
• Backrest angle.
• Changes in your child's body position, postures or weight
distribution.
• Pushing the mobility device on a ramp or slope.
• The use of a backpack or other options, and the amount
of added weight.
• The use of a vents, batteries, oxygen and other options, and
the amount of added weight that these options add to the
device.
To maintain the proper center of gravity and good balance:
• Consult your healthcare advisor and/or supplier to help you
in setting up the mobility device correctly.
• Consult your authorized supplier or healthcare advisor
BEFORE you modify or adjust the mobility device.
B. DRESSING OR CHANGING CLOTHES
WARNING
Your child's weight may shift if you dress your child or change
your child's clothes while they are seated in the mobility device.
To reduce the risk of a fall or tip over while changing clothes or
diapers:
• Rotate the front casters until they point forward.
• Engage the parking brake.
C. OBSTACLES
WARNING
Obstacles and road hazards (such as potholes and broken pavement),
can damage your mobility device and may cause a fall, tip over, or loss
of control.
To avoid these risks:
• Scan the area well ahead for danger as you travel with your mobility
device.
• Make sure floor areas ahead are level and free of obstacles.
• Install a ramp at entry or exit doors. Make sure there is not a drop off
at the bottom of the ramp.
D. REACHING OR LEANING
WARNING
If your child reaches or leans it will affect the center of balance of the
mobility device. This may cause a fall or tip over.
• NEVER allow your child to reach or lean if they must rise up off their
seat for the action.
• If your child must reach, move the mobility device as close as you
can to the object, and rotate the front casters until they are as far
forward as possible.
NOTE: To do this: Move your mobility device past the object that the child
might want to reach, then back up alongside it.
