CARING FOR YOUR SHOPRIDER POWERCHAIR
Tires
Since your tires are flat free tires, there is no need to ever worry about tire air-pressure.
When tread is worn, it is highly recommended to replace tires.
General Maintenance and Lubrication
Inspection for loose wheel bolts, seat and arm tightening bolts, castor nuts and
other nuts and bolts is recommended on a regular basis.
Most lubricated components on the Powerchair are designed to be maintenance
free and are sealed. Therefore, lubrication is not required for these components.
However, the driving wheel axles and seat post should always have a very light
coat of multi-purpose grease. **
NOTE
** Never put grease or oil in the breather cap
located on the top of each worm gear.
DO NOT USE TOO MUCH GREASE!
Drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishings, etc.
It is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assembly) and
castor assemblies be checked and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up,
which will hinder the performance of the unit.
Check the Powerchair’s batteries on a regular basis. For extended battery life, it is
highly recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. If the
batteries are weak, severely discharged or old, a variety of problems may occur
with the unit including charging problems, reduced speed, loss of range, loss of
charge capacity and others. Please contact your provider for battery replacement
and proper disposal.
Note:
Charging your batteries daily will enhance the life of
your batteries. If the batteries are left unattended for extended periods of time, it is
recommended that they be left in a fully charged state. Leaving your batteries in a
discharged state, or not charging them regularly will diminish the life of your
batteries and cause irreversible damage to your batteries.
