II. SAFETY
WARNING! Do not bend, lean, or reach for objects if you have to pick them up from the

may change your center of gravity and the weight distribution of the Travel Scooter and
cause your Travel Scooter to tip.
PROHIBITED! Keep your hands, clothing, and all other objects away from the tires when
driving. Do not allow any personal belongings or objects to drag behind the power chair
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.
POSITIONING BELTS
Your authorized Mega Motion Provider, therapist(s), and other healthcare professionals are responsible
