Front Wheel Punctures
Before leaving home, acquaint yourself with how to change an inner tube. The
Safari kit (if purchased) contains 3 tyre levers and a new inner tube for one front
wheel. Ensure all air is out of the punctured inner tube and use the plastic tyre
levers to move the tyre bead over the wheel rim, to enable you to remove the
inner tube. Before re-assembly, try and locate what caused the puncture and
remove it. Carefully install the new inner tube and refit the tyre bead.
Make sure you do not get the inner tube twisted or pinched between the tyre and
the rim. Inflate it to 50 psi or feel it and match to the other side. In extremely hot
conditions, you may experience the tyres ‘popping’ off the rims. In this case the
heat is probably causing an increase in tyre pressure. Bleed out a little air (depress
valve for one to two seconds) refit and see if things improve. For long distance
expeditions, contact Trekinetic as we can advise further.
Air Travel
Trekinetic recommend that you do not allow, the wheels to be removed or the
chair to be folded, prior to being carried in airline holds. Ensure that the airline
operator’s staff understand how the brakes are applied and always advise the
airline in advance that a wheelchair will need to be carried. You may cover the
seat with bubble wrap or similar for extra protection, if desired.
If you are asked by the airline, the maximum assembled size is 1140mm Long x
860mm Wide x 950mm High. The weight is circa 15.5kg.
Our users have proven, that the method above, is the one mostly likely to ensure
that your Trekinetic arrives at your destination, safely and undamaged.
