Summary of safety precautions

Always read and strictly follow the warnings and cautions listed on this page. Service only by qualified personnel.
WARNING
Always make sure that the chair is locked in the unfolded position before use. An unlocked chair may fold during use.
Do not use the chair with suspected cervical, spinal, or fracture injuries.
Do not leave an occupant unattended. Hold the product while an occupant is on the product.
Always use all restraint straps to secure the occupant on the product. An unrestrained occupant may fall from the product.
Do not push the Model 6252 with the upper control handle in the fully extended position. Pushing the chair with the handle in the fully extended position may cause the chair to tip when you encounter obstacles.
Always lock the Model 6252 Stair-TREAD system in position before you transport an occupant.
Avoid getting dirt or other obstructions inside the tracks. The Stair-TREAD system may not work the same on all stair surfaces and in all environmental conditions. Based on conditions, you may encounter varying amounts of resistance. Water, ice, or debris on the stairs can affect operator footing and proper operation of the Stair-TREAD system. To avoid injury, clear the path or consider an alternate route. Condensation, water, ice, or debris on the Stair-TREAD system can cause unpredictable performance that results in a sudden change in the weight that the operators must support.
Always clean and dry the Stair-TREAD system before you transport an occupant.
Do not attempt to transport occupant loads greater than what you can safely lift.
Do not install or apply a wheel lock on a product with worn wheels that are less than 6 in. diameter.
Always lock the lift handles in position before you use the handles to tip the chair back.
Always make sure that you secure all tubes, regulators, and ancillary accessories for the oxygen bottle to prevent interference with the tracks, wheels, or other mechanisms of the stair chair.
Failure to properly clean or dispose of contaminated stair chair components will increase the risk of exposure to blood borne pathogens and may cause injury to the patient or the operator.
Always use any appropriate personal protective equipment while power washing to avoid inhaling contagion. Power washing equipment may aerate contamination.
Always wipe the product with clean water and dry after cleaning. Some cleaning products are corrosive in nature and may cause damage to the product. Failure to properly rinse and dry the product leaves a corrosive residue on the surface of the product and may cause premature corrosion of critical components.
EN
CAUTION
Improper usage of the product can cause injury to the patient or operator. Operate the product only as described in this manual.
Do not modify the product or any components of the product. Modifying the product can cause unpredictable operation resulting in injury to patient or operator. Modifying the product also voids its warranty.
Always clear any obstacles that may interfere and cause injury to the operator or patient before operating the product.
Always use caution when using casters. Casters are not suitable for all surfaces.
Always release the red track release bar before you click the Stair-TREAD system into the locked position. Try to fold the chair before you descend the stairs to make sure that the Stair-TREAD system is locked.
The elastic oxygen bottle holder is for use only with RUGGED® Stair-PRO stair chairs and D-size oxygen bottles.
Failure to properly secure the oxygen bottle and oxygen bottle accessories could interfere with the operation of the stair chair.
Always make sure that you secure the oxygen bottle to the elastic oxygen bottle holder using the red Velcro strap.

Failure to properly secure the oxygen bottle and oxygen bottle accessories could interfere with the operation of the stair chair.
Always make sure that you secure the oxygen bottle to the elastic oxygen bottle holder using the red Velcro® strap.
Always make sure that the oxygen bottle is secure in the elastic oxygen bottle holder and that the regulator valve of the oxygen bottle does not protrude from the width of the stair chair.
Always remove the oxygen bottle from the elastic holder before attempting to fold or store the stair chair.
1. Make sure that the stair chair is in the open position before you begin installing the elastic oxygen bottle holder.
2. Place the elastic oxygen bottle holder between the two extension handle tubes under the seat.
3. Insert each of the four Velcro® straps through the plastic buckles.
4. Pull down on the straps so they are tight before you secure the Velcro®.
5. Pull up on the red handle and slide the D-size oxygen bottle into the elastic oxygen bottle holder.
Notes
Make sure that you slide the bottom end of the oxygen bottle in first.
When you attach the elastic oxygen bottle holder, make sure that the weight capacity of the chair is visible.
6. Thread the red strap through the red handle. When the red strap is not in use, you can attach the red strap to the bottom of the elastic oxygen bottle holder.
7. Pull the red Velcro® strap down until tight and secure it around the oxygen bottle.
