DO NOT use this product or any available optional equipment without first completely reading and understanding these instructions and any additional instructional material such as Owner’s Manuals, Service Manuals or Instruction Sheets supplied with this product or optional equipment.

  • Page 13: Stability - Recliner Models Only

    SECTION 1—GENERAL GUIDELINES Stability - Recliner Models Only ALWAYS make sure that the wheelchair is stable before using the recliner option. Ensure the spreader bar is attached and secured before using the 9000XT Recliner.  ALWAYS return the back to the upright position before lifting the wheelchair. Lift Kit Models only ‐ Both spring lift mechanisms MUST be operational before using the  recliner. DO NOT operate the recliner option if only one (1) of the spring lift mechanisms  is operational. Anti-Tippers Anti‐tippers are specific to the different seat‐to‐floor angles and/or seat‐to‐floor heights.  Refer to the charts in Installing/Adjusting Anti‐tippers on page 80 for correct usage and  adjustment. If these requirements cannot be achieved, DO NOT use the wheelchair.  Contact a qualified technician. If changing the seat‐to‐floor height with or without a  change to seat‐to‐floor angle, the correct anti‐tippers MUST be used to maintain a 1½ to  2‐inch ground clearance.  Seat‐to‐floor angle of 0° or 3°: If so equipped, anti‐tippers MUST be attached at all times.  Inasmuch as the anti‐tippers are an option for 0° or 3° on this wheelchair (you may order  with or without the anti‐tippers), Invacare strongly recommends ordering the  anti‐tippers as a safeguard for the wheelchair user. Seat‐to‐floor angle of 6°: If changing the seat‐to‐floor angle to 6°, anti‐tippers MUST be  installed. Operating Information Invacare products are specifically designed and manufactured for use in conjunction with  Invacare accessories. Accessories designed by other manufacturers have not been tested  by Invacare and are not recommended for use with Invacare products. Unless otherwise noted, all service and adjustment should be performed while the  wheelchair is unoccupied. 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, ensure prior to use that the handgrips do not twist on the  handle. Otherwise, damage or injury may occur.

  • Page 17 As with any vehicle, check the wheels and tires periodically for cracks and wear. Replace if damaged. 5. The rear wheels, casters and tires should be checked periodically for cracks and wear,  and should be replaced 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.
