Safety Summary

Use
Wheelchairs are exclusively for children and adults who are unable to walk or have limited mobility, for their own personal use, when self-propelling and being moved by a third party
(pushed by an attendant), within the home and outdoors. The maximum weight limit (includes the user and any weight of accessories fi tted to the chair) is marked on the serial number label, which is affi xed to the camber axle or the under-seat brace bar.

Warranty can only be considered if the product is used under the specifi ed conditions and for the intended purposes. The intended lifetime of the wheelchair is 5 years.
Please do not use or fi t any third-party components to the wheelchair unless they are offi cially approved by Sunrise Medical.

Area of Application
The variety of fi tting variants as well as the modular design mean that it can be used by those who cannot walk or have limited mobility e.g. due to:

• Paralysis
• Loss of extremity (leg amputation)
• Extremity defect deformity
• Joint contractures / joint injuries
• Illnesses such as heart and circulation defi ciencies, disturbance of equilibrium or cachexia as well as for elderly people who still have the strength in the upper body.

When considering provision, please also note the body size, weight, physical and psychology constitution, the age of the person, living conditions and environment.
Final Selection of the type of wheelchair to be used by an individual rests solely with the user and their health care professional capable of making such a selection.

General safety
The engineering and construction of this wheelchair has been designed to provide maximum safety. International safety standards currently in force have been fulfilled where appropriate. Nevertheless, users may put themselves at risk by improperly using their wheelchairs. For your own safety, the following rules must be strictly observed.
Unprofessional or erroneous changes or adjustments increase the risk of accident. As a wheelchair user, you are also part of the daily traffi c on streets and pavements, just like anyone else. We would like to remind you that you are therefore also subject to any and all traffic laws.

Be careful during your first use in your new wheelchair and get comfortable and confi dent before attempting outdoors or diffi cult obstacles. It is possible that potholes or uneven ground could cause this wheelchair to tip over, especially when riding uphill or downhill. When riding forwards over a step or up an incline, the body should be leaning forward.

WARNING: Travelling downhill at higher speeds in your wheelchair can cause caster fl utter. This can lead to instability and potentially result in personal injury.

Before each use, the following should be checked:

• Quick release axles on the rear wheels
• Hook and loop patches on seats and backrests
• Tires and tire pressure
• Wheel locks

Before changing any of the adjustments of the wheelchair, it is important to read the corresponding section of the user manual.

DANGER: NEVER exceed the maximum load of 242 lbs (110kg) for OctaneFX (187 lbs [85kg]) if used with a handbike) for driver plus any items carried on the wheelchair. Please note the weight information for lighter weight options, which are quoted separately. If you exceed the maximum load, this can lead to damage to the chair, or you may fall or tip over, lose control and may lead to serious injury of the user and other people.

• If and whenever possible, during a journey in a specially fi tted vehicle for disabled people, vehicle occupants should use the seats in the vehicle and the appropriate restraint system. This is the only way to ensure that occupants will have the maximum protection if there is an accident.

• To avoid falls and dangerous situations, you should fi rst practice using your new wheelchair on level ground with good visibility.

• This wheelchair should be used exclusively to convey one person at a time. Any other use does not comply with the intended purpose.

• When getting on or off the wheelchair, do not use the footplates. These should be fl ipped up beforehand and swung to the outside as far as possible. (If applicable)

• Depending on the diameter and setting of the casters, as well as the center of gravity setting of the wheelchair, the casters may begin to fl utter at high speeds. This can lead to the casters being blocked and the wheelchair may tip over.

• In particular, do not travel on an incline without wheel locks, travel at a reduced speed. Riding sideways on
  to a slope or incline, increases the possibility of the wheelchair tipping over sideways.

• Explore the eff ects of changing the center of gravity on the behavior of the wheelchair, for example on inclines, slopes, all gradients or when overcoming obstacles. Do this with the secure aid of a helper.

• We recommend that novice users use anti-tip tubes.

Weight Training
Sunrise Medical DOES NOT recommend the use of its wheelchairs as a weight training apparatus. This product has NOT been designed or tested as a seat for any kind of weight training. If occupant uses said wheelchair as a weight training apparatus, Sunrise Medical shall NOT be liable for personal injury or equipment damage and the warranty will be voided immediately.

WARNING:

Any products left in extreme hot or cold climates could result in hot/cold surfaces which could result in personal injury.
Do not expose the product or any of its accessories to any form of excessive heat or naked flame, Including cigarettes.
This product has moving parts and therefore could trap the user’s fi ngers. Use extreme caution when moving.

Stability and Balance
To assure stability and correct operation of your wheelchair, you must at all times maintain balance. 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. All activities which involve movement in the chair have an eff ect on the center of gravity.
Make sure the casters are pointing in the rearward position whenever you lean forward. This can be achieved by advancing the chair and then reversing it in a straight line. See Fig 1.

WARNING: The position of the footrest, camber tube and rear seat height, as well as the tautness of the back upholstery are directly related to the chair’s stability. Any change to one or any combination of the three may cause the chair to decrease in stability. Use EXTREME caution when using a new seating position for the first time.

Tire pressure
DO NOT use your wheelchair unless it has the proper tire pressure (P.S.I).
DO NOT over infl ate the tires. Failure to follow these suggestions may cause the tire to explode and cause bodily harm.

• Anti-tip tubes should prevent the chair tipping over backwards unintentionally. Under no circumstances should they take the place of transit wheels, and be used to transport a person in a wheelchair with the rear wheels removed.
• With extreme settings (e.g. rear wheels in the most forward position) and less than perfect posture, the wheelchair may tip over even on a level surface.
• Do not hang heavy items such as shopping bags or backpacks, on the push handles, headrest or backrest of the wheelchair. These can change the tipping point and there is a risk of tipping backwards.
• When reaching for objects which are in front of, to the side or behind the wheelchair, make sure that you do not lean too far out of the wheelchair. If you do it can change the center of gravity and there is a risk of tipping or rolling over.
• Only use your wheelchair properly. For example, avoid travelling against an obstacle without braking (step, curb edge) or dropping down gaps, or using escalators.
• Only attempt stairs with the help of an attendant. There is equipment available to help you, e.g. climbing ramps or lifts, please use them. If there is no such equipment available, then the wheelchair must be tipped and pushed over the steps (2 helpers).
• In general, any anti-tip tubes fi tted must be set beforehand, so that they cannot touch the steps, as otherwise this could lead to a serious fall. Afterwards the anti-tip tubes must be set back to their correct position.
• Make sure that the attendant only holds the wheelchair using securely mounted parts (e.g. not on the footrests or the side guards).
• When using the lifting ramp make sure that the anti-tip tubes fi tted are positioned outside the danger area.
• Secure your wheelchair on uneven ground or when transferring (e.g. into a car) by using the wheel locks.
• The wheel locks will only work if there is sufficient tire pressure and if the correct setting has been made (see the Chapter on “Wheel locks”).
• When it is dark, please wear light clothing or clothing with refl ectors, so that you can be seen more easily. Make sure that the refl ectors on the side and back of the wheelchair are clearly visible. We would also recommend that you fi t an active light.
• Adjustments to your wheelchair, especially to security-relevant components as for example wheel-locks, anti-tip or backrest must be performed by authorized dealers.
• It is recommended to clean and disinfect the entire product, especially the upholstery, frequently.
• Do not tilt the wheelchair without assistance.
• Do not reuse single use fasteners.
• The wheel locks are not intended to brake your wheelchair. They are only there to ensure that your wheelchair does not begin rolling unintentionally. When you stop on uneven ground, you should always use the wheel locks to prevent such rolling. Always apply both wheel locks; otherwise, your wheelchair could tip over.
• The wheel locks have not been designed to be used as brakes for a moving wheelchair.
• Always make use of elevators and ramps. If these are not available, you should request the help of an attendant. They should only grip the wheelchair at securely mounted parts. If anti-tip tubes are fi tted these must be folded away. A wheelchair should never be lifted with an occupant; it should only be pushed.
• If the seat and back sling are damaged, you must replace them immediately.
• Do not lift or carry the wheelchair by the back tubes or the push handles.
• Be careful with fi re, in particular with burning cigarettes. Seat and back slings can be set alight.
• Always make sure that the quick-release axles on the rear wheels are set properly and are locked in place. If the button on the quick-release axle is not pressed in, the rear wheel cannot be removed.
• In particular when using lightweight metal handrims, fingers will easily become hot when braking from a high speed or on long inclines.
• If the wheelchair is subject to direct sunlight for a long period of time, then parts of the wheelchair (e.g. frame, leg rests, brakes and side guards) may become hot (>106°F [>41°C]).
• To avoid hand injuries do not grab in between the spokes or between the rear wheel and wheel lock when driving the wheelchair.
• Do not use the wheelchair on slopes > 6°.
• The dynamic safe slope is dependent on the chair configuration, the user’s abilities and the style of riding. As the user’s abilities and style of riding cannot be pre-determined then the max safe slope cannot be determined. Therefore, this must be determined by the user with the assistance of an attendant to prevent tipping. It is strongly recommended that inexperienced users have anti-tips fi tted.
• Do not use your wheelchair on muddy or icy ground.
• Do not use your wheelchair where pedestrians are not allowed.
• The wheelchair should be used with caution in heavy rain, snow, slippery, or unsound surfaces.
• Do not use the wheelchair in hazardous environments.

Safety Inspection Checklist

NOTE:
Regular cleaning will help to highlight any loose or worn parts and enhance the smooth operation of your wheelchair. To operate properly and safely, your wheelchair must be cared for just like any other vehicle. Routine maintenance will extend the life and efficiency of your wheelchair. Initial adjustments should be made to suit your personal body structure and preference. Thereafter follow these maintenance procedures. Outlined below:

Troubleshooting Guide Mechanical

WARNING:
After adjusting, always make sure that parts are properly tightened BEFORE using the wheelchair. DO NOT overtighten hardware attaching to the frame. This could cause damage to the wheelchair.

Procedure 1 – Upholstery

The upholstery is fully adjustable and can be easily adjusted to provide the correct balance and comfort in your new wheelchair.

Adjusting Seat
Remove the cushion from the wheelchair. The seat is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the tension in the straps on the underside of the seat (Fig 15). To remove, release all the straps and remove.

Adjusting Backrest
Remove the cushion and center pad from wheelchair (Fig 14). The backrest is adjusted by increasing or decreasing the tension on the straps at the back of the backrest. To remove, release all the straps and remove.

Changing Cushion Cover
Remove cushion from the wheelchair. Open the hook and loop pocket at the rear of the cushion and remove or replace foam as required. (Fig16).

WARNING: The position of the footrest, camber tube and rear seat height, as well as the tautness of the back upholstery are directly related to the chair’s stability. Any change to one or any combination of the four may cause the chair to decrease in stability. Use EXTREME caution when using a new seating position for the first time.

CAUTION:
Hook and loop patches used on upholstery may cause property damage if contacted closely.

Procedure 2 – Rear Wheels

The rear wheels are quick release and are designed to be removed and attached frequently. All rear wheels use quick release axle pins to secure the wheels to the frame, although these vary in length, they operate the same.

Removing/attaching rear wheels
Push the quick release button and pull the wheel outwards. To install, push and hold the button and insert the quick release axle pin into the axle until the pin clicks into position. Ensure both wheels are fully engaged prior to use.

WARNING : Changing the size of your rear wheels can seriously affect the performance and stability of the wheelchair.

Adjusting Quick release axle pin
Only adjust the quick release axle pin if the wheel does not engage or the wheels feel loose. To adjust the length, remove the axle pin from the wheel and by using 2 x adjustable spanners/wrenches as per Figure 19, extend or shorten the pin as required.

A = Lengthen
B = Shorten

WARNING: Any adjustments to your quick release pins – then YOU must ensure your wheels lock on both sides of your wheelchair.
When attaching the rear wheels, always check that they are securely mounted. Pull on the rear wheels to make sure the detent pin / RGK cap of the quick release axle are fully released before operating the wheelchair.
You should NOT be able to pull the rear wheel off .

Procedure 3 – Tires and Inner Tubes

Tires will wear just like a car tire and the time will depend on the type of use. It is recommended that both tires are changed once the tread fades. For pneumatic tires, there is a risk that a puncture will occur and the inner tube will need to be replaced in order to keep the wheelchair operational.

Changing the tire
Remove the wheel from the wheelchair and release air in the tube by pressing the small pin inside the valve, if a Presta valve, then unscrew both the head and the securing ring at base and press the top until air releases. Using 2 x tire levers (supplied in the toolkit), unhook the tire completely from the wheel rim. Remove inner tube and tire from wheel rim.
To install the tire, place one side of the new tire on the wheel rim. Then insert the inner tube inside the tire and align the valve with the wheel rim hole. Ensure there are no kinks or uneven tension in the inner tube before putting the second side of the tire back on the wheel rim using the tire levers. Be careful not to pinch the inner tube. Once tire and inner tube are on the wheel rim, replace securing ring (if applicable) then infl ate tire a little. Adjust inner tube and tire so that they fi t nicely on the wheel rim and infl ate to the recommended tire pressure.

Changing the inner tube
Repeat the method above but do not remove tire completely, just remove inner tube. If problems continue, remove tire and inner tube and ensure there are no sharp edges in the wheel rim which may be causing a puncture.

Procedure 4 – Camber Bar

The Camber Axle or Camber Tube control your wheel position and your center of gravity. It is very important to have this set up for your requirements for performance and safety. Axle tube can be fixed or adjustable. Fixed means this cannot be adjusted and for a user who is experienced and knows their balance point. Adjustable position gives the user choice and is ideal for less experienced users

Adjusting Axle Tube position
To adjust the axle position, remove wheels. Using a 5mm allen key from the toolkit, release the top screw on each side of
the axle clamp as shown in Fig 21 (A). Once released but still intact, move the axle backward for more stability and move forward for more tip. Tighten the top screws once position has been set, and carefully use the chair as if it were the first time.

Replacing Axle tube
To replace the axle tube, remove wheels. Using a 5mm allen key from the toolkit, release the bottom screw completely from the axle clamp as shown in Fig 21 (B). Take note of the distance between the axle clamp and the axle tube for set up of the new axle tube. Slide new tube into the clamps and into the same position as the old axle tube. The notch in the axle insert must be at the top of the axle tube.
If the wheelchair feels slow after replacing the axle tube, rotate the axle tube a little forwards or backwards to correct the wheel alignment.

WARNING: The position of the footrest, camber bar, as well as the tautness of the back upholstery, are directly related to the chair’s stability.
Any change to one or any combination of the three may cause the chair to decrease in stability. Use EXTREME caution when using a new seating position for the fi rst time.

Procedure 5 – Caster Wheels and Forks

The caster wheels at the front of the wheelchair will wear just like car tires and should be replaced when they visibly look worn or cracks appear.

Changing caster wheels
Using 2 x 4mm allen keys from the toolkit, remove 1 of the 2 screws in the center of the caster wheel, as shown in Fig 22. Remove the screw and slide out the caster axle with the other screw still attached, noting any spacers and their positions. Install the new caster wheel and slide the caster axle back through and secure with the fi nal screw.

Changing caster Fork
Remove the bolt at the back of the caster housing using a 4mm Allen key from the toolkit. Then use the special spanner to undo the caster fork assembly as pictured in Fig 22, while holding the frame. The entire caster assembly will unscrew giving you access to the bearings and caster fork. Use the socket to release the nut which will release the fork. When installing, screw in the housing as far as it can go and line up the hole so the securing bolt can be tightened.

NOTE : Caster Bearings must be fi tted by an authorized dealer.
Failure to do so will result in invalid warranty on the parts.

CAUTION: DO NOT replace the front caster forks or caster wheels with a different size other than what was originally supplied on the chair. By changing to a different size caster fork or caster wheel will have an adverse effect on the running of the chair and the end users balance causing personal injury.

Procedure 6 – Wheel Locks

The wheel locks are adjustable in position to suit tire changes and wear. As tires wear, the wheel lock may not hold the wheelchair as intended, so these need to be adjusted to suit the tire condition.
NOTE : Before adjusting or replacing any style of wheel lock ensure that the tires are inflated to the recommended pressure as indicated on the tire.

Adjusting Wheel locks
Using a 5mm Allen key from the toolkit, release the 2 screws in the clamp or on the underside of the plate. Once the wheel lock is loose, reposition so that there is at least 3mm of interference when the wheel lock is activated. Tighten securely and repeat on the other side.

WARNING: After any adjustments, repair or service and before use, make sure all attaching hardware is tightened securely – otherwise injury or damage may result. If wheel locks do not hold occupied wheelchair in place please adjust as above, or contact your dealer – otherwise injury or damages may occur. The wheel locks are designed to work when your wheelchair is static. Wheel locks should not be applied during use and tire pressure should be as indicated on the tire.

Procedure 7 – Footrest

The footrest may need adjusting when you fi rst use the wheelchair, if circumstances change or if fasteners come loose. It is important to periodically check the height and adjust as required.

Adjust footrest height
Before adjustment, take note of the height you have or require and mark if necessary. Using a 4 or 5mm allen key from the toolkit, release the 2 screws in the footrest clamps. Reposition the footrest in the correct height and tighten the screws securely.

Adjust the footrest angle
With an adjustable angle footrest, release the 2 x clamp screws in the center of the footplate using a 4mm allen key and 10mm spanner from the toolkit. Reposition to the correct angle and tighten the screws securely.

WARNING: The footrest assembly MUST be at least 1.6-in (40mm) above the ground/fl oor to avoid hitting protruding objects when using this wheelchair.

Procedure 8 – Push Handles

A range of push handles can be supplied on this wheelchair for use by an attendant and operated as per the following procedures.

Adjusting Height adjustable push handles
Release the over center lever and position at the desired height and then tighten the lever to secure. Repeat on the other side to get uniform height between both handles.

Screw in push handles
Screw in push handles can be removed by unscrewing them from the backrest. To install, screw them in until tight by hand.

Screw-In push handles

Operating fl ip down push handles
Press the button underneath the handle and push the handle down at the same time, repeat on other side. Pull up the handle until it clicks into position to return to original position.

WARNING: DO NOT attempt to lift the wheelchair by any removable (detachable) parts i.e. Height adjustable push handles, Fold-down push handles and Screw-in push handles

Procedure 9 – Anti-Tip

An anti tip can be used to make the chair more stable and is recommended by a health care professional.

Swing away anti-tip
To store the anti-tip, push down on the spring-loaded tube until it releases from the housing. Swing 180 degrees under the chair and into the locked position. To return to the operating position, repeat and return the same way. To adjust the length, press the button on the tube and lengthen or shorter the wheel tube.

Single sport anti-tip
To remove anti-tip, remove quick release pin and remove tube.
The clamp attached to the frame is factory fitted and cannot be removed unless by an approved wheelchair technician.

WARNING:

• Sunrise Medical strongly recommends ordering the anti-tips as an additional safeguard for the wheelchair user.
• Anti-tippers MUST be fully engaged. Ensure the release button of the anti-tipper fully protrudes out of the hole in the anti-tipper socket.
  Ensure both anti-tippers are adjusted to the same height.

Procedure 10 – Sideguards

Sideguards support the user and prevent clothes from getting dirty. Although these need little maintenance, replacement is shown below.

Screw in sideguards
Remove the rear wheels. Using a 4mm allen key from the toolkit, release the 3 screws in the sideguard. To install, secure all screws but do not tighten until all are in position. Take care not to cross thread the screws.

Lift out sideguards
Remove sideguards from receiver. Using a 4mm allen key from the toolkit, release the 2 screws securing the sideguard to the lift out post. To install, replace and tighten the 2 screws. Take care not to cross thread the screws.

Fold flat sideguards
Using a 3mm allen key from the toolkit, remove the 4 screws from the inside of the sideguard. To install, secure all screws but do not tighten until all are in position. Take care not to cross thread the screws.

Flip back sideguards
Using a 4mm allen key from the toolkit, release the screws securing the sideguard to the lift out post. To install, replace and tighten the 2 screws. Take care not to cross thread the screws.

Procedure 11 – Q-Lock Folding System

WARNING: Your folding back and folding front tube section MUST be locked securely in place before using your wheelchair.

Folding your backrest with Q-Lock system
Rotate the twistlock into the open position, Fig 33. Press the catch down and push the backrest down. To engage, pull the backrest up until the catch engages and then rotate the twistlock into the locked position, Fig 34.

Folding the front section with Q-Lock system
Remove rear wheels and rotate the twistlock collars to the open position. Then depress both Q lock levers down, this allows the front folding tube section to fold under the chair. To reposition the footrest simply pull the front section forward allowing the Q lock levers to click into position. Once the Q lock leavers have clicked into position, rotate the twistlock collars into the locked position.

Adjusting the Q-Lock
Behind the Q-Lock is a grub screw which can be used to tighten or loosen the Q-Lock joint. Use a 3mm allen key from the tool kit to adjust. Only adjust if the front frame feels loose or the catch does not engage.

WARNING:

• Always check the Q-Lock joint is secure and all fasteners are tight. There should be no excessive free play in the QLock joint during use. Make any necessary adjustments before use.
• The twistlocks must be in the locked position whenever in use. Failure to do so could deactivate the catches and prevent the frame from closing in, causing serious injury and equipment damage.

Transportation

Transportation of your wheelchair within a vehicle
A wheelchair secured in a vehicle, will not provide the equivalent of safety and security as a vehicle seating system. We recommend that the user transfers to the vehicle seating. It is recognized that this is not always practical for the user to be transferred and in these circumstances Sunrise Medical recommends the use of a crash-tested wheelchair.

DANGER: There is risk of serious injury or death if this advice is ignored.
