User's Manual
HS-6500
Annual Maintenance
We recommend that the chair has at least one full service per year from an authorized
dealer. This will ensure that your power chair is functioning properly and also helps
prevent future complications. This should include:
1. Checking the tires.
2. Checking the batteries and terminals.
3. Checking the controller program for the user's needs.
4. Checking the frame.
5. Checking the upholstery condition.
Regular Maintenance and Cleaning
1. Avoid knocking or bumping the controller, especially the joystick.
2. Avoid prolonged exposure of your power chair to extreme conditions, such as heat,
cold, or moisture.
3. Keep the controller clean.
4. Check that all controller connectors are tight and secured properly.
5. Never hose off your power chair or place it in direct contact with water.
6. Keep the upholstery and frame clean by wiping with a soft cloth, particularly after
driving through wet, sandy or muddy conditions. Do not use harsh abrasive materials
when cleaning. Do not apply liquid cleaners or solvents directly to the control box,
battery charger or any electrical connections.
7. Keep wheels free from lint, hair, sand and carpet fibres.
8. Lightly oil axle pin, wheel axles and bearings once every three months, if necessary.
9. Inspect the tires. Tread depth should not be allowed to drop below 1/16".
10. Use only recommended batteries and have batteries changed by Qualified Dealer if you
have doubts about your ability to lift the components.
11. Charge batteries regularly. Make sure the charger lead plugs are engaged properly
in the sockets. Do not disconnect by pulling the cord.
12. With the controller turned off, check the joystick. Make sure it is not bent or damaged
and that it returns to the center when you release it. Check the rubber boot around
the base of the joystick for damage. Visually inspect the boot. Do not handle or try
to repair it. See your authorized dealer for any questions.
13. Visually inspect the controller harnesses. Make sure that they are not frayed, cut or
have any wires exposed. See your authorized dealer if there is a problem with any
of these harnesses.
14. Ensure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your HS-6200.
Do not over tighten any screws.
