How to open Steel Transport Wheelchair by Medline ?

Why This Product Stands Out
The Medline Basic Steel Transport Wheelchair is built with caregiver convenience and patient safety in mind. Unlike standard transport chairs, it includes permanent restaurant-style armrests, allowing users to pull right up to tables without repositioning—a big advantage for dining, activities, and social engagement.
Its steel frame offers long-lasting durability, while the nylon upholstery is easy to clean and comfortable for daily use. The rear hand brakes provide controlled maneuvering and prevent unwanted movement during transfers, making it safer for both patient and caregiver.
The chair also folds effortlessly, making it ideal for home care, doctor visits, travel, and emergency mobility needs. Medline’s reputation for medical-grade manufacturing adds an extra layer of trust and reliability.
How to close Medline Steel Transport Chair ?
- Ensure the swing-away legrests are in the forward and locked position.
- Fold the footplates up to the vertical position.
- Using both hands, grasp the center of the seat upholstery at the front and back edge and lift the seat up.
Safety precautions while using Medline Trasport chair
- Do not tip the transport chair without assistance.
- Do not use the transport chair in a shower, pool, or other body of water.
- Make sure the seatback is locked in the upright position.
- Do not shift your weight or seat position toward the direction you are reaching.
