GENERAL GUIDELINES  
MANDATORY! Do not operate your new wheelchair for the first time without completely reading  
and understanding this owner’s manual.  
Your wheelchair is a state-of-the-art life-enhancement device designed to increase mobility. Pride provides an  
extensive variety of products to best fit the individual needs of the wheelchair user. Please be aware that the final  
selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of wheelchair to be used is the responsibility of the wheel-  
chair user, who is capable of making such a decision, and his/her health care professional (i.e., medical doctor,  
physical therapist, etc.).  
The contents of this manual are based on the expectation that a mobility device expert has properly fitted the  
wheelchair to the user and has assisted the prescribing health care professional and/or the Quantum Rehab Pro-  
vider in the instruction process for the use of the product.  
There are certain situations, including some medical conditions, where the wheelchair user will need to practice  
operating the wheelchair in the presence of a trained attendant. A trained attendant can be defined as a family  
member or care professional specially trained in assisting a wheelchair user in various daily living activities.  
As you begin using your wheelchair during daily activities, you will probably encounter situations in which you  
will need some practice. Simply take your time and you will soon be in full and confident control as you maneuver  
through doorways, on and off of elevators, up and down ramps, and over moderate terrain.  
Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help you become accustomed to oper-  
ating your wheelchair safely.  
Modifications  
Pride has designed and engineered your wheelchair to provide maximum mobility and utility. A wide range of  
accessories is available from your Quantum Rehab Provider to further customize your wheelchair to better suit  
your needs and/or preferences. Under no circumstances should you modify, add, remove, or disable any feature,  
part, or function of your wheelchair.  
WARNING! Do not modify your wheelchair in any way not authorized by Pride. Do not use  
accessories if they have not been tested or approved for Pride products.  
Pre-Ride Safety Check  
Get to know the feel of your wheelchair and its capabilities. Pride recommends that you perform a safety check  
before each use to make sure your wheelchair operates smoothly and safely. Before riding, you should be trained  
in the safe use of this wheelchair by your Quantum Rehab Provider.  
Perform the following inspections prior to using your wheelchair:  
Check for proper tire inflation. Maintain but do not exceed the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on each  
tire if equipped with pneumatic tires.  
Check the manual wheel locks. See III. “Your Wheelchair.”  
Check the attendant wheel lock, if your wheelchair is equipped with one. See III. “Your Wheelchair.”  
NOTE: If you discover a problem, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider for assistance.

Weight Limitations  
Your wheelchair is rated for a maximum weight capacity. Please refer to the specifications table for this limit.  
Keep in mind that the maximum weight capacity includes the combined weight of the user and any accessories  
mounted to the wheelchair.  
MANDATORY! Stay within the specified weight capacity of your wheelchair. Exceeding the  
weight capacity voids your warranty. Pride will not be held responsible for injuries and/or  
property damage resulting from failure to observe weight limitations.  
WARNING! Do not carry passengers, including pets, on your wheelchair. Carrying passengers  
and/or objects on your wheelchair may affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.  
WARNING! Do not carry baggage on the back of the wheelchair. Carrying or tying baggage on  
the back of the wheelchair may affect the center of gravity, resulting in a tip or a fall.  
Tire Inflation  
If your wheelchair is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check or have the air pressure checked regularly.  
Proper inflation pressures will prolong the life of your tires and help ensure the smooth operation of your wheelchair.  
WARNING! It is important to maintain the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the  
pneumatic tires at all times. Do not under inflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may  
result in loss of control, and overinflated tires may burst. Failure to maintain the psi/bar/kPa air  
pressure rating indicated on the pneumatic tires at all times may result in tire and/or wheel  
failure.  
WARNING! Inflate your wheelchair drive tires from a regulated air source with an available  
pressure gauge. Inflating your tires from an unregulated air source could overinflate them,  
resulting in a burst tire.  
NOTE: If the tire on your wheelchair lists the psi rating only, use the following conversion formulas to find  
the bar or kPa rating: bar = psi x 0.06895; kPa = psi x 6.89476.  
Incline Information  
More and more buildings have ramps with specified degrees of inclination, designed for easy and safe access.  
Some ramps may have turning switchbacks (180-degree turns) that require you to have good cornering skills on  
your wheelchair.  
Proceed with extreme caution as you approach the downgrade of a ramp or other incline.  
Take wide swings with your wheelchair’s front wheels around any tight corners. If you do that, the  
wheelchair’s rear wheels will follow a wide arc, not cut the corner short, and not bump into or get hung up on  
any railing corners.  
When driving down a ramp, proceed slowly to ensure a safely controlled descent.  
Avoid sudden stops and starts.  
When climbing an incline, try to keep your wheelchair moving. If you must stop, start up again slowly and then  
accelerate cautiously. When driving down an incline, proceed slowly and drive in the forward direction only. If  
your wheelchair starts to move down the incline faster than you anticipated or desired, bring it to a complete stop  
using both hands, then proceed slowly to ensure a safely controlled descent.  
WARNING! When on any sort of an incline or decline, never allow the wheelchair to  
roll freely while seated on it or standing next to it.  
WARNING! When climbing an incline, do not zigzag or drive at an angle up the face of  
the incline. Drive your wheelchair straight up the incline. This greatly reduces the  
possibility of a tip or a fall. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an  
incline.  
WARNING! You should not travel up or down a potentially hazardous incline (i.e.,  
areas covered with snow, ice, cut grass, or wet leaves).  
WARNING! Never travel down an incline backward. Doing so may cause the  
wheelchair to tip. Always exercise extreme caution when negotiating an incline.

WARNING! If your wheelchair is equipped with a reclining seatback, do not attempt to negotiate  
inclines with the seat in a reclined position. Do not attempt to negotiate obstacles with the seat  
in a reclined position unless an attendant is present to help stabilize the chair. Failure to heed  
may result in the wheelchair tipping over.  
WARNING! Even though your wheelchair is capable of climbing slopes greater than those  
illustrated in figure 1, do not, under any circumstances, exceed the incline guidelines or any  
other specifications presented in this manual. Doing so could cause instability in your  
wheelchair.  
Pride recommends that the maximum slope of an incline you attempt to safely ascend or descend on your wheel-  
chair does not exceed 5° (8.7%). See figure 1.  
WARNING! Any attempt to climb or descend a slope steeper than 5° (8.7%) may put your  
wheelchair in an unstable position and cause it to tip.  
Figure 1. Maximum Safe Slope (Ascending and Descending)  
Attendant or Manual Wheel Locks  
Your wheelchair is equipped with an attendant wheel lock, which is mounted on the axle of the drive wheels, or  
two manual wheel locks (Kids ROCK 2 and ROCK 3), which are mounted near (or directly in front of) both drive  
wheels. The attendant or manual wheel locks help prevent your wheelchair from moving when parked. After you  
bring your wheelchair to a complete stop, engage the attendant wheel lock or both manual wheel locks. If you  
have any questions about the operation of your wheel locks, contact your Quantum Rehab Provider.  
WARNING! Do not attempt to use either manual wheel lock lever to stop your wheelchair.  
WARNING! Pride does not recommend that you remain parked on an incline for a long period of  
time.  
WARNING! Use care when operating the wheel locks. Possible pinch point created during  
operation.  
Cornering Information  
While your wheelchair is equipped with front caster wheels, excessively high cornering speeds can still create the  
possibility of tipping. Factors which affect the possibility of tipping include, but are not limited to: cornering  
speed, steering angle (how sharply you are turning), uneven road surfaces, inclined road surfaces, riding from an  
area of low traction to an area of high traction (such as passing from a grassy area to a paved area—especially at  
high speed while turning), and abrupt directional changes. High cornering speeds are not recommended. If you  
feel that you may tip over in a corner, reduce your speed and steering angle (i.e., lessen the sharpness of the turn)  
to prevent your wheelchair from tipping.  
WARNING! When cornering sharply, reduce your speed and maintain a stable center of gravity.  
This greatly reduces the possibility of a tip or fall.  
Public Streets and Roadways  
WARNING! You should not operate your wheelchair on public streets and roadways. Be aware  
that it may be difficult for traffic to see you when you are seated on your wheelchair. Obey all  
local pedestrian traffic rules. Wait until your path is clear of traffic, and then proceed with  
extreme caution.

Outdoor Driving Surfaces  
Your wheelchair is designed to provide optimum stability under normal driving conditions—dry, level surfaces  
composed of concrete, blacktop, or asphalt. However, Pride recognizes that there will be times when you will  
encounter other surface types. For this reason, your wheelchair is designed to perform admirably on packed soil,  
grass, and gravel. Feel free to use your wheelchair safely on lawns and in park areas.  
Avoid driving on uneven terrain and/or soft surfaces.  
Avoid tall grass that can entangle the drive wheels or caster wheels.  
Avoid loosely packed gravel and sand.  
Avoid uneven surfaces.  
Do not use your wheelchair in fresh or salt water.  
Do not use your wheelchair at the edge of a stream, lake, or ocean.  
If you feel unsure about a driving surface, avoid that surface.  
Inclement Weather Precautions  
Exposure of your wheelchair to inclement weather conditions should be avoided whenever possible. If suddenly  
caught up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your wheelchair, proceed to shelter at the earliest  
opportunity. Thoroughly dry your wheelchair before storing or operating your wheelchair.  
PROHIBITED! Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray conditions, and on icy/slippery surfaces  
can have an adverse effect on your wheelchair. Maintain and store your wheelchair in a dry and  
clean condition.  
WARNING! Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature of  
upholstered and non-upholstered items on the wheelchair, possibly resulting in skin irritation.  
Exercise caution when using the wheelchair in extremely hot or cold conditions or when  
exposing your wheelchair to direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time.  
Stationary Obstacles (Steps, Curbs, etc.)  
Proceed with extreme caution when driving near raised surfaces, unprotected ledges and/or drop-offs (curbs,  
porches, stairs, etc.). Be sure your wheelchair is traveling perpendicular to any curb you may be required to  
navigate. See figure 2.  
WARNING! Even though your wheelchair may be capable of handling greater obstacles, Pride  
recommends that you do not attempt to negotiate a curb that has a height greater than 2 in.  
(5 cm). Doing so could cause instability in your wheelchair.  
WARNING! Do not attempt to have your wheelchair proceed backward down any step, curb, or  
other obstacle. This may cause the wheelchair to tip.  
Figure 2. Correct Curb Approach  
Figure 3. Incorrect Curb Approach  
Stairs and Escalators  
Wheelchairs are not designed to travel up or down stairs or escalators. Always use an elevator.  
WARNING! Never use your wheelchair to negotiate steps or escalators.

Doors  
Determine if the door opens toward or away from you.  
Drive your wheelchair gently and slowly forward to push the door open, or drive your wheelchair gently and  
slowly backward to pull the door open.  
Elevators  
Modern elevators have a door edge safety mechanism that, when pushed, reopens the elevator door(s).  
If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the rubber door edge or allow  
the rubber door edge to contact the wheelchair and the door will reopen.  
Use care that pocketbooks, packages, or wheelchair accessories do not become caught in elevator doors.  
Lift Systems/Elevation Products  
If you will be transporting your wheelchair during travel, you may find it necessary to use a vehicle-mounted lift  
system or elevation product to aid in transportation. Pride recommends that you closely review the warnings,  
instructions, specifications, and safety information set forth by the manufacturer of the lift/elevation product  
before using that product.  
WARNING! Not all lift systems/elevation products are rated for use with an occupied mobility  
device. Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your wheelchair when it is being  
used in connection with any type of lift system/elevation product unless:  
That product is rated for occupied use by the manufacturer.  
You are able to occupy your mobility device in strict conformity with the warnings,  
instructions, specifications, and safety guidelines set forth by the manufacturer.  
Motor Vehicle Transport  
Pride recommends that you do not remain seated in your wheelchair while traveling in a motor vehicle. Your wheel-  
chair was designed to be folded and stored in a secure location, such as the trunk of a car, during motor vehicle  
transport, unless it is equipped with an optional transit securement system. If your wheelchair is equipped with a  
transit securement system, see III. “Your Wheelchair.”  
WARNING! The wheelchair user should transfer into the motor vehicle seat and use the vehicle-  
installed restraint system whenever feasible. The wheelchair user should never sit in the  
wheelchair while it is in a moving vehicle unless it is equipped and properly secured with a  
manufacturer-installed transit securement system.  
WARNING! Ensure wheelchairs equipped with a transit securement system are properly secured  
to the motor vehicle during transport. Wheelchairs that are not properly secured can become a  
hazard to the user and to other vehicle passengers in the event of a crash, sudden stopping, or  
swerving, as the wheelchair could tip or slide out of place.  
Positioning Belts  
Your Quantum Rehab Provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible for determining  
your requirement for a positioning belt in order to operate your wheelchair safely. Typically, the positioning belt  
is not designed for use as a restraining device in a motor vehicle. You should be properly belted into seats  
approved by the vehicle manufacturer with your wheelchair properly stowed for vehicle transport or secured using  
an optional transit securement system.  
Positioning belts should be installed as detailed in this manual. See III. “Your Wheelchair.” Once installed, the  
belt should be placed across the pelvis as determined by your healthcare provider. Anchor points of the positioning  
belts should be located so that a projected side-view angle of the pelvis is between 45°-75° of horizontal depend-  
ing on the user’s weight, posture, and seat cushion thickness.  
WARNING! If you require a positioning belt to safely operate your wheelchair, make sure it is  
fastened securely in order to reduce the possibility of a fall from the wheelchair.

I I . S A F E T Y  
WARNING! The positioning belt is not designed for use as a seat belt in a motor vehicle. Nor is  
your wheelchair suitable for use as a seat in any vehicle. Anyone traveling in a vehicle should  
be properly belted into seats approved by the vehicle manufacturer.  
WARNING! Avoid serious injury. Always use positioning belt to prevent the child from falling or  
slipping out of wheelchair. After fastening buckles, adjust positioning belt to get a snug fit  
around the child.  
WARNING! Avoid serious injury. Do not place items with strings around your child’s neck,  
suspend strings from the wheelchair, or attach strings to toys.  
Removable Parts  
WARNING! Do not attempt to lift or move a wheelchair by any of its removable parts, including  
the armrests, seat, tray, and front riggings. Do not attempt to pick up the wheelchair while the  
seat is occupied.  
Preventing Unintended Movement  
WARNING! If you anticipate the child being seated in a stationary position for an extended period  
of time, apply the wheel locks. This will prevent unexpected chair movement.  
Reaching and Bending  
Never reach, lean, or bend while driving your wheelchair. If it is absolutely necessary to reach, lean, or bend while  
seated on your wheelchair, it is important to maintain a stable center of gravity and keep the wheelchair from  
tipping. Pride recommends that the wheelchair user determine his/her personal limitations and practice bending  
and reaching in the presence of a qualified healthcare professional.  
WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them up from  
the floor by reaching down between your knees or if you have to reach over the back  
of the seat. Movements such as these may change your center of gravity and the  
weight distribution of the wheelchair. This may cause your wheelchair to tip.  
Keep your hands, clothing and all other object away from the tires when driving. Do  
not allow any personal belongings or objects to drag behind the wheelchair when  
driving. Be aware that loose fitting clothing or other objects can become caught in  
drive tires and/or they may become entangled in the running gear.  
Transfers  
Transferring onto and off of your wheelchair requires a  
good sense of balance. Always have an attendant or health-  
care professional present while learning to properly trans-  
fer yourself.  
To eliminate the possibility of injury, Pride recommends  
that you or a trained attendant perform the following tasks  
before attempting a transfer:  
Turn both caster wheels toward the transfer destination  
to improve wheelchair stability during transfer.  
Ensure both wheel locks on your wheelchair are  
engaged. See III. “Your Wheelchair.”  
Reduce the distance between your wheelchair and the  
object you are transferring onto.  
WARNING! Before transferring, position  
yourself as far back as possible in the  
wheelchair seat to prevent the wheelchair  
from tipping forward during transfer.

WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the wheelchair armrests and do not use the  
armrests for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause the wheelchair to  
tip, resulting in a fall from the wheelchair and personal injury.  
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the manual wheel locks and do not use the manual  
wheel locks for weight bearing purposes, such as transfers. Such use may cause equipment  
damage or personal injury.  
WARNING! Avoid putting all of your weight on the front riggings. Such use may cause the  
wheelchair to tip.  
WARNING! Ensure legs, hands, and clothing are clear of the scissor-style wheel lock levers when  
attempting to transfer.  
Prescription Drugs/Physical Limitations  
Users must exercise care and common sense when operating a wheelchair. This includes awareness of safety  
issues when taking prescribed or over-the-counter drugs or when the user has specific physical limitations.  
WARNING! Consult your physician if you are taking prescribed or over-the-counter medication or  
if you have certain physical limitations. Some medications and limitations may impair your  
ability to operate your wheelchair in a safe manner.  
Alcohol/Smoking  
The attendant for the wheelchair user must exercise care and common sense when operating the wheelchair. This  
includes awareness of safety issues while under the influence of alcohol or while smoking.  
WARNING! Do not operate the wheelchair while you are under the influence of alcohol, as this  
may impair your ability to operate the wheelchair in a safe manner.  
WARNING! Pride strongly recommends that the attendant does not smoke cigarettes while the  
child is seated in the wheelchair, although the wheelchair has passed the necessary testing  
requirements for cigarette smoking. You must adhere to the following safety guidelines if you  
decide to smoke cigarettes while a child is seated in the wheelchair.  
Do not leave lit cigarettes unattended.  
Keep ashtrays a safe distance from the seat cushions.  
Always make sure cigarettes are completely extinguished before disposal.  
Flammability Precautions  
WARNING! Even though the plastics used on your wheelchair have been tested and have passed  
the applicable flammability standards, Pride recommends that you do not expose your  
wheelchair to open flames.  
WARNING! Replace worn or damaged upholstery immediately to reduce the risk of fire hazard.  
WARNING! Be aware that washing of upholstered items may reduce the resistance to  
flammability of the fabric.

Transit Feature (Optional)  
The Kids UP Series Wheelchairs are approved for transporting children in motor vehicles when the wheelchair is  
equipped with optional transit features. Use in accordance with the instructions supplied by the vehicle-mounted  
tie-down manufacturer and the following guidelines:  
The Kids UP Series Wheelchairs conform to, and have been dynamically tested in compliance with ANSI/  
RESNA WC /Vol. 1, Section 19.5.3.  
Contact your Quantum Rehab Provider with any questions regarding use of the wheelchair for seating in a  
motor vehicle.  
WARNING! Ensure that restraints are not held away from the body by wheelchair components.  
WARNING! Attach tie-downs only to designated tie-down locations.  
WARNING! Do not use the wheelchair if the wheelchair has been involved in a crash.  
Guidelines:  
Transfer the child to the vehicle seat, and use the vehicle-installed restraint system whenever possible.  
The wheelchair must be secured in a forward-facing position with a Wheelchair Tie-down and Occupant  
Restraint System (WTORS) that meets the requirements of SAE J2249 Recommended Practice (Wheelchair  
Tie-down and Occupant Restraint System for Use in Motor Vehicles).  
The Kids UP Series Wheelchairs have been dynamically tested in a forward-facing mode with the test device  
restrained by both pelvic and upper torso belts. Both pelvic and upper torso belts must be used to reduce the  
possibility of head and chest impacts with vehicle components.  
For approved transit tie-down locations and location of the pelvic belt attachment pin, see figures 16 and 17.  
The Kids FAST Wheelchair can accommodate up to 80 lbs. (36 kg); the Kids ROCK 2 Wheelchair can  
accommodate up to 110 lbs. (50 kg), and the Kids ROCK 3 Wheelchair can accommodate up to 215 lbs.  
(97 kg). Do not exceed these occupant weights.  
The wheelchair must be placed in a forward-facing position when used as a seat in a motor vehicle. Use an  
approved four-point strap-type tie-down system, and an approved three-point belt for the child. Secure the  
wheelchair and the child using the instructions provided with the tie-down system.

Ensure that restraints are not held away from the child’s body by wheelchair components.  
Adjust the belts so that the belts fit as snugly as is comfortable for the child.  
Install belt restraints that comply with the provisions of ANSI/RESNA WC/Vol. 1, Section 19.4.9.2 through  
4.9.5 and 5.2 that have been dynamically tested in accordance with Annex A and 5.3 of the same, for use as a  
restraint in a motor vehicle.  
Postural supports and belts may be used in addition to the occupant belt restraint, but should not be used as a  
replacement of the occupant restraints that have been designed and tested for this purpose.  
Preferred pelvic belt angle-range. See figure 18.  
Steeper side-view pelvic-belt angles are especially important if the pelvic belt is intended to be used for  
postural support in addition to occupant restraint in a frontal crash.  
Steeper angles will reduce the tendency for a vertical gap to develop between the user and the belt due to  
compliance of seat cushions and belt movement. This will reduce the tendency for the user to slip under the  
belt and for the belt to ride up on the child’s abdomen during normal use.  
Steeper belt angles reduce the tendency for upper-torso belts to pull the pelvic belt into the abdomen during  
frontal impact loading.  
Remove auxiliary equipment from the wheelchair and secure the equipment in the vehicle during transit.  
Remove wheelchair-mounted trays from the wheelchair and secure the trays in the vehicle during transit.  
Do not perform alterations or substitutions to the structure and frame components without consulting your  
Quantum Rehab Provider.  
Follow the specifications for the recommended safety zone. See figure 19.  
Ensure that the recline and tilt features place the child in an upright position and never exceed a 30º (from  
vertical) recline when using the wheelchair for transport.  
Ensure that the ACTIVE handle lever (located on the front of the ACTIVE handle) is in the OFF position  
(parallel to the ACTIVE handle).  
Always drive carefully to minimize excessive force on the tie-down system.

Tilt-in-Space  
The Kids UP Series Wheelchair is equipped with a tilt-in-space mechanism that pivots around a point near the child’s  
center of gravity. Tilt-in-space reduces the sense of falling that occurs when the wheelchair is tilted. In addition, the  
tilt-in-space keeps the child’s center of gravity nearly the same in relation to the wheelbase of the wheelchair, so the  
wheelchair’s stability is not significantly changed by moving the tilt position. See figures 43 and 44.  
WARNING! Before operating the tilt-in-space, ensure the child’s arms are stable on the armrests  
or within the armrests and the child’s legs and feet are stable on the footrest.  
WARNING! Do not place hands, feet or foreign objects into the tilt mechanism.  
WARNING! Do not add any accessories to the wheelchair not specifically designed for Kids UP  
Series Wheelchairs.  
WARNING! Never exceed a tilt angle greater than 90° from an upright position. Never allow the  
seatback to be lower than parallel to the ground.  
To adjust the tilt angle of the child:  
1. Verify the wheelchair is in the locked state. See “ACTIVE Motion” in V. “Comfort Adjustments.”  
2. While holding the handlebar, use the lever on the handlebar to release the tilt lock. See figures 45 and 46.  
3. Move the shell assembly to the desired tilt angle.  
4. Release the lever on the handlebar to engage the tilt lock.  
5. Verify the tilt lock is fully engaged by slightly moving the handlebar up and down.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE  
Your Kids UP Series Wheelchair requires routine maintenance checks. You can perform some of these checks,  
but others require assistance from your Quantum Rehab Provider. Preventive maintenance is very important. If  
you follow the maintenance checks in this section as scheduled, you can help ensure that your wheelchair gives  
you years of trouble-free operation. If you have any doubt as to your wheelchair’s care or operation, contact your  
Quantum Rehab Provider.  
WARNING! Do not service the wheelchair when the seat is occupied.  
Your wheelchair is susceptible to damage from the elements. Avoid damp areas of any kind.  
WARNING! Direct or prolonged exposure to water or dampness could cause the  
wheelchair to malfunction mechanically. Water can cause the chair’s frame to rust.  
Wheelchairs should be examined periodically for signs of corrosion caused by water  
exposure, bodily fluids exposure, or incontinence. Damaged components should be  
replaced or treated immediately.  
Should your wheelchair come in contact with water:  
1. Dry your wheelchair as thoroughly as possible with a towel.  
2. Allow your wheelchair to sit in a warm, dry place for 12 hours to allow unseen water to evaporate.  
3. If any inconsistencies are found, take your wheelchair to your Quantum Rehab Provider. Wheelchairs that are  
frequently exposed to sources of water, such as incontinence, should be inspected often for corrosion.  
Temperature  
Some of the parts of your wheelchair are susceptible to extreme changes in temperature. Always keep your wheel-  
chair between the temperatures of 18°F (-8°C) and 122°F (50°C).  
General Guidelines  
Avoid prolonged exposure of your wheelchair to extreme conditions, such as heat, cold, or moisture.  
Make sure the pneumatic tires are inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on the tire if equipped  
with pneumatic tires.  
WARNING! Make sure your tires are inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating indicated on  
the tire. Do not underinflate or overinflate your tires. Low pressure may result in loss of control,  
and overinflated tires may burst. Overinflating tires can cause them to explode.  
WARNING! Do not use a high pressure hose to inflate your tires.  
Use a rubber conditioner on the tire sidewalls to help preserve them.  
WARNING! Never use a rubber conditioner on the tread area of the tires; doing so may make the  
tires slippery and cause your wheelchair to skid.  
All wheel bearings are prelubricated and sealed. They require no subsequent lubrication.  
Daily Checks  
Check for loose or missing screws, nuts, and bolts. Replace or tighten them as necessary.  
Check the tires. Look for uneven wear, holes, or tire/rim separation. If they look excessively worn, then have  
them replaced.  
Visually inspect pneumatic tires for punctures.  
Confirm correct air pressure as marked on the side of the tire.  
Check for flat spots on solid tires. Flat spots could adversely affect stability.

V I . C A R E A N D M A I N T E N A N C E  
Check the handrims. Make sure that they are fastened securely to the wheels.  
Check the wheel locks. Make sure they work properly. If they don’t, instructions on how to adjust them are  
provided in this manual or contact your Quantum Rehab Provider.  
WARNING! The wheel locks are designed to keep your chair stationary while you are parked.  
They are not designed to stop the wheelchair during driving. Do not use either of the wheel locks  
to stop the wheelchair while driving it. This can cause your wheelchair to become unstable and  
tip.  
Weekly Checks  
Check for proper tire inflation. Pneumatic tires should be inflated to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure rating  
indicated on the tire. If a tire does not hold air, see your Quantum Rehab Provider for replacement of the tube.  
Check the anti-tip wheels for wear or damage. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for replacement or repair.  
Monthly Checks  
Check for drive tire wear. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for repair.  
Check the caster wheels for wear. Replace them as necessary.  
Check the caster forks for damage or fluttering which indicates that they may need to be adjusted or have the  
bearings replaced. See your Quantum Rehab Provider for repair.  
Keep your wheelchair clean and free of foreign material, such as mud, dirt, hair, food, drink, etc.  
Yearly Checks  
Take your wheelchair to your Quantum Rehab Provider for yearly maintenance, especially if you use your wheel-  
chair on a daily basis. This helps ensure that your wheelchair is functioning properly and helps prevent future  
complications.  
Storage  
Your wheelchair should be stored in a dry place, free from temperature extremes.  
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust.  
You may wish to place several boards under the frame of your wheelchair to raise it off of the ground during  
periods of prolonged storage. This takes the weight off the tires and reduces the possibility of flat spots developing  
on the areas of the tires contacting the ground.  
Disposal of Your Wheelchair  
Your wheelchair must be disposed of according to applicable local and national statutory regulations. Contact  
your local waste disposal agency or Quantum Rehab Provider for information on proper disposal of wheelchair  
packaging, metal frame components, plastic components, neoprene, silicone, and polyurethane materials.  
Cleaning and Disinfection  
Use a damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleanser to clean the plastic and metal parts of your wheelchair.  
Avoid using products that may scratch the surface of your wheelchair.  
If necessary, clean your product with an approved disinfectant. Make sure the disinfectant is safe for use on  
your product before application.  
WARNING! Follow all safety instructions for the proper use of the disinfectant and/or cleaning  
agent before applying it to your product. Failure to comply may result in skin irritation or  
premature deterioration of upholstery and/or wheelchair finishes.  
WARNING! Never hose off your wheelchair or place it in direct contact with water. Your  
wheelchair has a painted finish that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.

WARNING! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become  
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.  
Wheel Replacement  
Your wheelchair may be equipped with a tire and tube, tire and flat-free insert, or a solid polyurethane tire.  
Replacement tires, tubes, inserts, and tire assemblies are readily available through your Quantum Rehab Provider.  
WARNING! The wheels on your wheelchair should only be serviced or replaced by a Quantum  
Rehab Provider or a qualified technician.  
WARNING! When changing a tire, remove the entire drive wheel. If any further disassembly is  
required, deflate the tire completely or it may explode.  
To replace a pneumatic tire tube, flat-free insert, or solid polyurethane tire:  
1. Remove the drive wheel from the frame.  
2. If equipped with pneumatic tires, make sure that the tube is deflated completely.  
3. Use several tire levers to pry the tire from the rim. Tire levers are available from a bicycle shop.  
NOTE: If your wheelchair is equipped with solid polyurethane tires, then no further disassembly is required.  
Go to step 7.  
4. Remove the old tube or flat-free insert.  
5. If equipped with pneumatic tires, inflate the new tube with enough air so that it just starts to take shape.  
6. If equipped with pneumatic tires or flat-free inserts, install the tube or flat-free insert into the tire.  
7. Use the tire levers to secure the tire back onto the rim.  
8. If equipped with pneumatic tires, inflate the tire to the psi/bar/kPa air pressure recommended on the sidewall.  
Always use a regulated air source.  
9. Reinstall the drive wheel to the frame. Make sure that the wheel axle is snapped securely into the frame  
bracket.  
Manual Wheel Locks  
After several months of use, you may find it necessary to adjust the wheel locks so that they lock securely when  
engaged. You also may need to adjust them after changing the drive wheel position.  
WARNING! If your wheelchair is equipped with pneumatic tires, make sure they are inflated to  
the pressure recommended on the sidewall of the tire.  
To adjust each manual wheel lock:  
1. Disengage the wheel lock. See figure 9. The wheel  
lock blade should be 0.25 in. (0.64 cm) away from  
the tire for both pneumatic and solid tires.  
2. Loosen the hardware that fastens the wheel lock  
clamp to the frame. See figure 59.  
3. Reposition the wheel lock so that the blade is  
0.25 in. (0.64 cm) away from the tire and  
perpendicular to the plane of the tire.  
4. Tighten the hardware that fastens the wheel lock  
clamp to the frame.  
5. Engage the wheel lock and note the position of the  
blade.  
6. Reposition the wheel lock if necessary.
