CAUTION: 

 

Never disassemble  or modify  the wheelchair  frame structure.  Otherwise, 

injury or damage  may occur. This will  void the warranty. 

 

As with  any wheelchair,  the wheels and tires should be checked 

periodically  for cracks and wear, and should  be replaced.  Failure  to keep 
tires at the correct  pressure will  reduce  the braking  efficiency.
