10. SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
10.1 General maintenance instructions
Your wheelchair needs periodical maintenance. This is necessary for a long lifetime and an optimal user’s comfort
of your wheelchair. A badly maintained wheelchair will give more technical problems, turn less flexible and fall out
the warranty terms.
Preventive maintenance is most important and many of these things you can easily do yourself or a friend or family
member can help you. We highlight below the maintenance you can do yourself.
Every week
Check tyre pressure;
Check the fold ability of the wheelchair and the quick release rear wheels;
Check upholstery for wear;
Check wheel movement front and rear and check turn ability of the wheels;
Check if the brakes are working correct;
Every three months
Check all bolts, screws and nuts and tighten if necessary;
Check all spokes for tension;
Check tyre tread for wear.
Furthermore we advise you let you wheelchair check by an authorised dealer every year. Make sure you dealer
checks the point mentioned by paragraph 16.2.
