Cleaning your RoughRider
™
Keeping the chair clean and dry helps keep the metal parts from rusting and the upholstery from
rotting. Cleaning also prevents damage caused by dirt or sand scraping against the chair’s moving
parts.
Clean the frame and upholstery
as needed using water with a little
mild soap, making sure to rinse and dry it completely afterward.
Pay special attention to all moving parts, such as the axles, the caster
barrels, pivots where the chair folds, and areas where the upholstery
is fastened to the frame; dirt can be especially damaging to these
areas.
After each cleaning, and only after the chair is completely dry,
apply medium- to heavy-weight oil to all moving parts
on the
chair (x-brace pivots, pivot tubes at the bottom of x-brace, folding
stabilizer pivots, wheel lock pivots, and footrest pivots) to prevent
rusting and to keep the moving parts moving smoothly.
