5 Maintenance 

5.1 Cleaning and attendance 

 

PLEASE NOTE 

Never treat the wheelchair with a high-pressure 

cleaner! Please use silicon-free, water-based 
cleaning and care supplies. 

The indications on application given by the 

manufacturer are to be followed. Do not use 

any aggressive cleaning supplies such as 
dissolvers or hard brushes etc. 
 
SURFACE COATING 
To tend the finish, we recommend using 

customary branded finish care products. 

Should the coating nevertheless be damaged 
through scrapers, crushes, etc., you may 
correct those spots with a touch up applicator 
available in the specialised trade (apart from 

metallic and dormant colours). 

 
PLASTIC PARTS 
The clothing guard and similar parts consist of 
high quality plastics. Only clean these parts 

with warm water and neutral cleaning agents 
or soft soap.

ATTENTION 

When using customary plastic cleaners, the 

indications on application given by the 
manufacturer are to be followed. 
 

CUSHIONS AND COVERS 
The covers of the moulded firm seat and back 

parts may be removed with the zippers. We re-
commend washing them regularly with a mild 

detergent and low temperatures in the washing 

machine. 

 

PLEASE NOTE 

Please clean other pads and covers (e.g. from 
seat shells) with warm water and hand flush 
fluid. Many stains may be removed with a 
sponge or a soft brush. 

 

In case of doubt, please consult the medical 

supply store which built your seat shell for 
advice on cleaning the cover. 

 
FRAME 
The frame and the wheels should regularly 

be cleaned wetted with a mild cleaning 
agent. Please dry well afterwards. 
 

CASTERS 
Please remove rough dirt from the casters 
regularly, clean them wetted with a mild 
cleaning agent and dry well. Please grease 

the wheel bearings and similar parts with 
customary lubrication greases. 
 

 

PLEASE NOTE 

Please check the carriage for corrosion 
damage as well as other damage regularly. 

Oiling all versatile parts lightly and regularly 

obviates such damages and enables you to 
profit from your wheelchair for a long time. 

5.2 Disinfection 

For disinfection water-based agents should 
be used, such as: Terralin, Quartamon, Med 

or Sagrotan. 

The indications on application given by the 
manufacturer are to be minded and 

followed strictly. 
 

 

PLEASE NOTE 

Before disinfecting your wheelchair, please 
clean all pads and handles in the way 

indicated.
