MAINTENANCE
Your Panthera is constructed to be virtually maintenance-free. A few parts however, re-
quire regular inspection. (Obviously you must clean and check the chair more often if you
use it in more extreme environments, such as in sand and salt water.)
Once monthly you must:
- Wipe the chair's chassis with automotive or dishwashing detergent and a damp cloth. In
the event of heavy soiling, a degreasing agent may be used. Lubricate all moving parts
with 5-56, universal oil after cleaning.
- Clean around the front wheel bracket in the fork (between the wheel and fork). It is here
that hair, dust, etc. often collect, which can damage the bearings. Loosen the nut with a
10-mm spanner and hold the bolt in place with another 10-mm spanner. Tighten the bolt
and remove the wheel. Clean the spacers fitted between the wheel and fork, and wipe the
outside of the wheel bearings with a rag. Squirt a drop of oil into each bearing. Now reas-
semble the parts.
- Lubricate the axle for the drive wheels. Remove the wheels and spread a few drops of
oil on the axle. If the wheelchair is used in rain, sand, salt and slush or the wheels seldom
removed, you should do this more often.
-
Inflate the tyres by removing the cap from the valve and inflating using a suitable valve
adapter. The tyres should be inflated to a pressure of 8 bar (kg).
- Check all screws, bolts and nuts and tighten as necessary.
- Check the chair for damage. If damage has occurred, immediately contact us at Panth-
era AB.
Twice yearly you must:
- Lubricate moving brake parts with a few drops of oil.
Bambino
- Lubricate the bushing at the backrest joint. Loosen the nut with a 10-mm spanner and
hold the bolt in place with another 10-mm spanner. Lubricate the bushing with a few drops
of oil.
Bambino
- Wash the seat upholstery, backrest upholstery and cushion cover in a washing machine
at 40 degrees as necessary.
