Proper care and maintenance is important in order to keep
your transport chair in good working condition. Be sure
that your chair is in proper working condition at all times.
A qualified dealer or repair center (wheelchair rental dealer)
should be consulted for periodic inspections and repairs.
1.
At least once a week, wipe off chrome using a clean
soft cloth. If the chair is exposed to moisture, dry the
chair immediately. The metal parts of the chair should
be polished once a month with an auto wax.
2.
Clean the upholstery with a mild soap solution, rinse and
wipe dry. Worn or torn upholstery should be replaced
promptly as it may not support your body weight.
3.
Inspect the wheels at least once a month. Correct any
side play by loosening the lock nut on the axle, then
tighten the axle just enough to remove side play.
4.
Solid rubber tires require limited upkeep, but need to
be cleaned periodically with a damp cloth. Solid rubber
tires need to be replaced if they become cracked or
severely worn.
