• When proceeding to pumping, periodically check what the tire pressure is. The best
way to do this is by compressing the tire with your thumbs at the end of the tread.
If it is possible to make only a millimeter dent, it means that there is enough air in
the tire. If necessary, continue pumping.
• When you have finished pumping, remove or unscrew the nozzle from the valve by
applying pressure to its outlet with your thumb. It is important to do this smoothly
enough so that not too much air escapes.
Adjust the pressure in the rear wheels to the weight of the user and then, with the
assistance of the attendant, check the operation of the parking brakes (the wheelchair,
loaded with the weight of the user, positioned forward in the direction of the slope,
must not roll on a surface with an incline of 15%). After all, adjustments, remember to
carefully check all connections.
Wheel pressure and braking force
Observe the correct degree of wheel pressure in accordance with the man-
ufacturer’s figures on the tire sidewalls. Use a pump with a pressure gauge
or a bicycle hand pump.
Cleaning
• Clean the wheelchair frames with a damp cloth.
• Remove contamination on a regular basis.
• In order to maintain the operational parameters of the product, it is extremely
important to keep all its elements clean and to adapt to the method of its storage.
• Storage in rooms with very high humidity (baths, laundries, etc.), or in the open
air, combined with the lack of hygiene, will result in a rapid loss of functional and
aesthetic parameters.
• Do not expose the wheelchair and the drive to extreme weather conditions (rain,
snow, very strong sun), as some elements may change its color.
Disinfection
If the product is used by several people (e.g. in a nursing home), commercially available
disinfectants should be used. Before disinfecting, clean the upholstery and handles.
Only tested and approved disinfectants may be used for disinfection.
Information on recognized and approved disinfectants and disinfection methods is
available from your national health authority.
WARNING!
The use of disinfectants can damage the outer surfaces, which can reduce
the long-term functionality of components. Follow the instructions pro-
vided by manufacturer of the chemical product.
