Technical problems
N.B.:
all repairs other than those described above
must always be performed by an authorised dea-
ler. Improper repairs may endanger your health.
Furthermore, repairs carried out by unauthorised
persons will invalidate the guarantee on your
chair.Use your common sense and decide whether
you are in a position to resolve technical problems
on the wheelchair yourself. If in doubt, always con-
sult your dealer. When adjusting and installing or
removing parts, consult this manual and follow
your dealer’s advice. Do not place yourself or the
wheelchair user in danger.
In the unlikely event that you experience technical
problems with your wheelchair, please contact your
dealer. The dealer will decide whether he can repair
the chair or whether it will have to be returned to the
factory.
You may be able to solve some problems yourself.
The seat angle can no longer be adjusted
n
Check whether the operating cable is bent or has
become trapped somewhere.
n
Check whether the gas spring block moves when
the handle is pressed. Lubricate the gas spring
block if necessary.
Movable components such as the push-bar, height-
adjustable armrest, legrest and sides get stuck
n
These components can become jammed in the
frame if too much pressure is exerted on them.
Carefully tap the components loose with a plastic
hammer.
Socket screws for one-off adjustment cannot be
loosened
n
The screws may have been over-tightened. Try
placing a tube over the long end of the Allen
key so as to lengthen the turning arm. Now try
loosening the screw.
n
The socket head may be stripped: Try gripping the
screw with a monkey wrench. If this fails consult
your dealer.
The brakes have insufficient braking power or do not
brake uniformly on both sides
n
You should adjust the brakes; go to page 25.
