To re-grease, undo the grub screw completely, fill the cavity with general purpose
automotive grease and refit the screw, whilst periodically rotating the castor.
Repeat until grease is seen appearing from the top bearing. Wipe clean. Re-
greasing is only normally required at service as stated below.
Servicing
We recommend an initial service after the first 6 months of use as this is when the
chair really beds in and adjusts to its new user. All of our chairs leave the factory
with a generic mechanical setup but as each chair is used by a different person,
often in different ways, the chair often reacts differently and we can adjust and
tune this as the first service interval.
Following the initial service, we recommend a follow up service every 6-12
months after that depending on use. Trekinetic users are welcome to book
services in directly with the factory or contact their local dealer who may be able
to offer a local service.
Beach Use
Sand and sea water air can easily damage the moving parts of your wheelchair.
Clean the wheelchair thoroughly after exposure, if you ever use your chair on
sand or in abrasive environments.
Do not try and dismantle the wheelchair yourself, beyond the guidelines in the
above sections. The method of assembly is not necessarily obvious, and breakage
or failure may occur with incorrect disassembly or reassembly. Many of the
screws also have small hexagonal sockets that can be easily rounded off, making
it very difficult to remove.
Nameplate
Details of your specific K2 including chassis number, etc. are located on the
underside of the seat and behind the rear padding.
The nameplate indicates the exact model designation and other specifications.
Please provide the following whenever you have to arrange service, order
replacement parts or discuss your wheelchair.
