The ProBasics Transport Chair TCA1916PK is an ultra-lightweight, caregiver-assisted mobility solution engineered to make patient transfers smooth, secure, and effortless across home, clinical, and travel environments. Built with a durable aluminum frame featuring a permanent rear axle for enhanced structural integrity, this transport chair supports a robust 300 lbs user weight capacity while maintaining a light overall product weight of just 20 lbs. Finished in a distinct, stylish pink frame coating, it delivers an ideal balance of strength, everyday comfort, and exceptional portability.
Designed specifically for effortless vehicle loading and tight-space storage, the chair incorporates a fold-down backrest equipped with a quick back-release hinge, collapsing flat in seconds alongside integrated nylon lifting straps. Flared push handles give caregivers superior ergonomic grip and steering leverage through narrow hallways, doorways, and outdoor walkways. Patient security and physical support are prioritized through padded full-length fixed armrests, breathable padded nylon upholstery, an adjustable seat belt, push-to-lock rear wheel brakes, and tool-free swing-away composite footrests with heel loops. Rolling smoothly on maintenance-free 8-inch composite wheels with solid rubber wheelchair tires, the ProBasics TCA1916PK delivers reliable, flat-free mobility for short-distance travel and everyday patient escort.

Usage, Folding & Maintenance Guidelines
To unfold, push downward on the seat rail edges until the seat fabric is flat and taut, then raise the backrest until the hinge snaps firmly into the upright locked position. Before helping the user sit down or transfer out, always ensure both rear push-to-lock wheel brakes are fully engaged and swing the footrests aside. To fold for travel, release the backrest latch to fold down the back, then lift upward using the integrated nylon seat straps. Clean the pink aluminum frame and nylon upholstery with a damp cloth and mild soap; dry thoroughly with a towel.
