Looking After Your Power Chair
Tires
Since your tires are flat frees, there is no need to ever worry about
tire pressure.
Upholstery
All upholstery can be washed with warm water and mild soap. Some
car upholstery cleaners produce excellent results as well.
Occasionally check the seat and back for sagging, cuts and tears.
Replace if necessary. To avoid mildew and rapid deterioration of
upholstery parts, do not store your chair in damp conditions.
Lubrication and General Maintenance
All moving mechanisms will benefit from simple lubrication and
inspection. Lubricate using petroleum jelly or light oil. Do not use too
much oil, drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishing, etc. Always
carry out a general inspection of all nuts and bolts for location and
tightness.
