7 MAINTENANCE
Protect your E&J Traveler L3 Plus by having it serviced regularly. Proper care and maintenance
are essential to keep your wheelchair in safe working condition. Periodic inspection, adjustment,
and replacement of worn parts will provide many years of superb performance. When you believe
that a component or part of your Traveler L3 Plus is not functioning properly, contact your
GF authorized distributor immediately, as a potentially hazardous condition could result. Only
excellent condition is acceptable where safety is concerned.
SERVICE MANUAL
There is no service manual for the Traveler L3 Plus. Contact your GF authorized distributor with
service questions not answered by this manual.
Info: We recommend that you have a GF authorized distributor perform a six month maintenance
check, as the distributor may find and correct a problem which might otherwise go undetected
and eventually cause more serious problems and/or personal injury.
DO-IT-YOURSELF MAINTENANCE
You can do many of the scheduled maintenance tasks yourself, if you have mechanical ability
and a few basic tools. Refer to the maintenance schedule on the next page for the recommended
regularity of each procedure. If any maintenance procedure is not clear to you, ask your
GF authorized distributor for assistance.

NOTICE: Improper maintenance can cause operating problems and may affect your
warranty.
WARNING: Unauthorized modification or the use of non-Everest & Jennings replacement
parts could change the structure of the wheelchair, void the warranty, and create a
hazardous condition resulting in serious personal injury.
