9.0 Maintenance and care
•
Check the tyre pressure every 4 weeks. Check all tyres for
wear and damage.
•
Check the brakes approximately every 4 weeks to make
sure that they are working properly and are easy to use.
•
Change tyres as you would an ordinary bicycle tyre.
•
All of the joints that are critical to using your wheelchair
safely are self-locking nuts. Please check every three
months to make sure that all bolts are secure (see the
section on torque). Safety nuts should only be used once
and should be replaced after use.
•
Please use only mild household cleansers when your
wheelchair is dirty. Use only soap and water when cleaning
the seat upholstery.
•
You should only use genuine parts approved by Sunrise
Medical. Do not use parts from other manufacturers, that
have not been by authorised by Sunrise Medical.
•
If your wheelchair should ever get wet, please dry it
afterwards.
•
A small amount of sewing-machine oil should be applied to
quick-release axles approximately every 8 weeks.
Depending on the frequency and type of use, we
recommend taking your wheelchair to your authorised
dealer every 6 months to have it inspected by trained
personnel.
•
If you want to store the wheelchair for a long period of time,
then no further measures are required. Make sure that the
wheelchair is stored at room temperature in a dry place
which is protected from strong sunlight. Before using it
again, the wheelchair should be checked by an authorised
dealer.
CAUTION!
Sand and sea water (or salt in the winter) can damage the
bearings of the front and rear wheels. Clean the wheelchair
thoroughly after exposure.
The following parts can be removed and sent back to the
manufacturer/dealer for repair:
• Rear wheels
• Armrest
• Anti-Tip tubes
These components are available as spare parts. For further
information, please see the spare parts catalogue.
Hygiene measures when being re-used:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully
prepared. All surfaces which come into contact with the user
must be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a disinfectant as authorised/
recommended in your country, for rapid alcohol-based
disinfection for medical products and medical devices, which
must be disinfected quickly.
Please be aware of the manufacturer’s instructions for the
disinfectant you are using.
In general, a complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed on
seams. We therefore recommend that you dispose of seat and
back slings to avoid micro-bacterial contamination with active
agents according to your local infection protection law.
