  • Causa
    Invacare has recently identified a potential wiring pinch point involving invacare fdx tdx series and storm series power wheelchairs with 20"-24" width configurations with formula cg recline seating system (i.E. tilt/recline tilt/recline/elevate or recline only) and a conventional style back. there is a possibility that if the slack in the wires is not routed and secured correctly and with flexing of the back pan under the user's weight the headrest knob or clamp bracket may pinch damage or cut the wire creating a hazard. smoking sparking burning or fire may occur if any wire in this area is repetitively pinched at the same location over a period of time. not all impacted chairs are expected to have slack in the wiring that is not routed and secured correctly.
