TROUBLESHOOTING

Continual use of your Traveler L4 necessitates maintenance, especially
if the factory-set adjustments have been altered. The following trouble-
shooting guide lists several common problems that may occur, and offers
corrective actions for each. If you are unsure of the solution or unable to
diagnose the problem, do not hesitate to ask your Graham-Field dealer for
assistance.

Nuts and/or bolts may be loose. If so, tighten.

Bolts should be snug.
Rear wheels and/or casters may be adjusted

improperly. Ensure that both rear wheels are

mounted in identical positions, and that casters

are mounted in identical positions.
Caster stem(s) may be adjusted improperly.

Correct adjustment.

L4 parts catalog is available through Graham-Field dealers to as-
sist in the ordering of parts.

Caution: A complete inspection of your wheelchair, including

maintenance, servicing and safety checks, should be per-
formed by a Graham-Field dealer at least once a year.

& Jennings® replacement parts could change the structure of
the wheelchair, void the warranty, and create a hazardous con-
dition, which could result in serious personal injury.
