The Guardian Escort® , a standard wheelchair combining quality, function and value to elevate the industry standard. By taking the best ideas from our international engineering team, Sunrise Medical® has come up with a standard wheelchair that is built to withstand the rigors of long term usage. It has already proven itself in Europe as the market leader.

FEATURES:

• i-directional click-in-place hangers snap in place for a positive lock and swing in/out for better access in small spaces. The actuation lever is located under the hanger tubing to avoid damage.

• With heavy use in mind, our engineers designed a reinforced set of front forks. These forks feature a scratch resistant finish. To prevent breakdown over time, the bearings are press fitted into each fork. For extra duability, the entire fork and stem are then threaded directly into the frame of the chair.

• Two separate types of axle plates are available on the Guardian® Escort: (1) The standard offset axle adjusts the center of gravity by setting the bracket infront/behind the rear tubing. (2) The amputee axle offsets the receiving sleeve 2 3/4" behind the rear vertical post.

• A unique feature of the Guardian Escort ® its ablility to convert the footrest hangers into a fixed frame. By removing the plunger assembly under the actuation lever, the footrest hangers become fixed in place. The plunger assembly can be put back in place any time to return the swing-away function.
