Maintenance
As is the case with every other technical
product, your Standard wheelchair will
require maintenance. The following
maintenance instructions describe, in ta-
ble form, the work that needs to be car-
ried out so that you will be able to fully
enjoy the advantages of your wheel-
chair (quiet running, low rolling resist-
ance) even after a long period of use.
Care
Seat and backrest cover:
Clean the covers with warm water. In
the case of stubborn soiling, the fabric
can be washed with a standard washing
powder for delicate fabrics. Spots can
be removed with a sponge or a soft
brush.
+
Remark:
Do not use aggressive cleaning
agents e.g. solvents, or hard brush-
es etc.
Rinse with clear water and let get dry.
Finish:
The high quality finish ensures an opti-
mum of protection against corrosion. If
the surface finish is damaged by scratch-
es or similar, touch it up with a varnish
pen available from us. Occasional ap-
plication of a light cover of oil to all
moving parts (see also Maintenance In-
structions) will ensure that your wheel-
chair will give you many years of serv-
ice.
Spare parts
Only use ORIGINAL MEYRA
spareparts.

tact your specialist workshop. Personnel
there are well trained to carry out the
work required.
Customer Service

ance with our guidelines and who can

pairs. We have a dealer network of

MAINTENANCE IN-
STRUCTIONS
Before starting out
1.
Check the axle to ensure that it
is functioning properly.
After installing the drive wheel, the stop
button must protrude a few millimeters
from the wheel nut. – The driving wheel
is secured in position.
The stop bolt must be kept clean. A func-
tional fault may occur in the case of con-
tamination due to sand or earth or in the
event of freezing of moist cold air.
Always carry out a tensile test after each
assembly!
Remark:
Carry out test yourself or with a helper.
2. Check tyre pressures.
Full tyre pressure – drive wheel
Standard pneumatic tyres = 2.5 bar
Ultra smooth running tyres = 6 bar
High-pressure tyres = 8 bar
Indoor sport = 11 bar
Remark:
Do it yourself or with the aid of a helper
Use a tyre gauge or, if you do not have
one, use the "thumb pressure method"
(see safety instructions in the section enti-
tled "Tyres".
