SAFETY INSPECTION CHECKLIST
Note: Twice a year take your wheelchair to a qualified
dealer for a thorough inspection and servicing. Regular
cleaning will reveal loose or worn parts and enhance the
smooth operation of your wheelchair. To operate properly
and safely, your wheelchair must be cared for just like
any other vehicle. Routine maintenance will extend the
life and efficiency of your wheelchair.
Initial adjustments should be made to suit your personal body
structure and preference. Thereafter follow these maintenance
