7 TROUBLESHOOTING

Continual use of your Transport Chair necessitates maintenance, especially if the 
factory-set adjustments have been altered. The following troubleshooting 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 casters

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

Have your GF dealer correct adjustment.

nance, servicing and safety checks, should be performed by a Graham-Field 
dealer at least once every six months.
