Weekly Checks
●
Inspect the controller for signs of corrosion. Contact an authorized Provider if necessary.
●
Ensure that all parts of the controller system are securely fastened to your power chair. Do not
overtighten any screws.
●
Check for proper tire inflation. If a tire does not hold air, contact your authorized Provider for
replacement of the tube.
●
Check the brakes. This test should be carried out on a level surface with at least 3 feet (1 meter) of
clearance around your power chair.
To check the brakes:
●
Turn on the controller and turn down the speed level on your power chair.
●
After one second, check the battery condition meter. Make sure that it remains on.
●
Slowly push the controller forward until you hear the electric brakes click. Immediately release the
controller. You must be able to hear each electrical brake operating within a few seconds of
controller movement. Repeat this test three times, pushing the controller rearwards, then left,
and then right.
