Inspired design
The F-Series builds on over 50 years of experience to create our most capable family of front wheel drive power wheelchairs ever. We’ve combined a low center of gravity, optimized weight distribution and powerful high efficiency motors to offer enhanced base stability, obstacle climbing and chair responsiveness.
Stand without compromise
We combined all of the performance features of the F5 Corpus with superior power standing functionality. Fully programmable standing sequences allow user position to be optimized using supine, semi-reclined or sit-to-stand techniques.
Strength and stability
Power meets performance on the new F5 Corpus with a blazing 7.5mph top end speed and upgraded ComfortRide Pro suspension. All-wheel independent, fully adjustable, oil dampened shocks provide the ultimate in ride comfort while helping to reduce vibrations that can transfer from terrain up to user.
Small footprint, big impact
The F3 Corpus offers the smallest footprint of the F-series front wheel drive power wheelchairs. Its compact size and agility allows users to easily maneuver in and out of tight spaces.
Ergo Seating Options: All Rigid Frames
The Ergonomic Advantage provides an additional unique bend in the frame creating an ergonomic seat slope sitting you lower in the chair providing greater pelvic stability and improved posture through optimal contouring.

Power Assist from a Proactive Perspective
Power assist is often discussed hand in hand with shoulder injury or shoulder pain. What if the discussion was different? What if power assist was considered a proactive part of manual mobility to enhance health and function? Curtis Merring recently spoke with Laurie Watanabe for a Mobility Management podcast on SmartDrive. In the podcast Curtis changes the conversation about power assist and explains that SmartDrive is simply an extension of manual mobility. It can give the wheelchair user the means to do more of what they love without compromise, and only use it when they need it. Check out this podcast to hear more about SmartDrive as a proactive choice to power your push!
Wheelchair Prescriptions with Short Rehab Stays
Getting the appropriate wheelchair when patients are discharged so early is a common challenge these days with rehab stays getting shorter and shorter. The average inpatient rehab stays are now 7-10 days, with patients going home to receive Home Health services. Considering that an ultra-lightweight manual wheelchair can take weeks or months to get due to the process that is required, how can you ensure that your patients get the appropriate wheelchair?
First, when you do your initial evaluation be thinking about whether your client may need a wheelchair when going home. If the answer is yes, treat your evaluation as if they are going to need a K0005 wheelchair, even if they initially go home in a lower end manual wheelchair for a short period of time. K0005 documentation should be more than sufficient to cover a lower coded chair so there is no real duplication of process.
