Maintenance
GB19
Cleaning
Clean your wheelchair with a damp cloth, water and
an all purpose cleaner.
NB:
Never use aggressive cleaners or solvents
(thinners, benzine or similar).
Consult your dealer for information on disinfecting
your wheelchair.
Minor maintenance
(every two weeks)
Check the tyre pressure. Soft tyres reduce the
effectiveness of the brake and make the wheelchair
more difficult to use as they increase resistance.
Check that all fastenings are secure. Tighten if
necessary.
NB:
Overtightening the screws can damage
the wheelchair. Check the hinged components
on the folding frame. Lubricate sparingly with
Teflon spray if necessary.
Major maintenance
(annual)
Your dealer will be happy to carry out the major
maintenance of your wheelchair free of charge. You
can then be sure that you will be getting the best
possible use out of your wheelchair. You should also
consult your dealer if components need replacing.
Transporting the wheelchair
GB18
Car
In addition to a taxibus, the Amara can also be
transported folded in a car boot. See page 14
for instructions on folding up the wheelchair. The
wheelchair can be lifted into the car by two adults.
