8. Maintenance Tips for Users

a moist cloth. You can use a mild detergent for more stubborn dirt
•
The wheels can be cleaned with a wet synthetic fiber brush (do not
use a wire brush!)

8.2. Inspection of the wheelchair by
the user
Check these items before beginning each journey
•
Make sure that the tyres are in good condition. Carry out a regular
check of the tread depth of the tyres once a month. This should be
at least 1 mm. Any faulty or worn out tyres must be changed.
•
Ensure that the parking brakes function properly. When the brake
is applied, the wheelchair should not be able to be moved. When
the brake is released, the wheelchair should be able to be moved
around easily without making any friction noises and it should
have good directional stability. If you notice unusual braking
performance, inform your specialist dealer immediately and do not
use the wheelchair.
•
Make sure the seat cover and back cover are in good condition and
clean. If the covers get dirty, you can clean them according to the
cleaning instructions. If they are damaged, contact your specialist
dealer.
•
Check the folding mechanism and all of the movable parts and
ensure that they can be moved easily and work without making a
lot of noise. Squeaking noises indicate that there is damage and
your wheelchair should be checked by a specialist dealer.
•
Make sure that all screwed fittings and riveted joints are intact and
in good condition.
9. Maintenance Tips for Retailers
We recommend to have the entire wheelchair inspected by a qualified
mobility dealer at least once a year.
Should the wheelchair be faulty or defective, it should be brought to a
qualified mobility dealer for repair without delay.
Repair and replacement of parts are carried out by the mobility dealer.
All information, documents and schematics necessary for repair are
made available to a qualified mobility dealer on request. There is also a
training program for authorized dealers.
Should you have any questions, please contact the B+B customer service
at +49 700 - 6000 7070.
The wheelchair shall be inspected in accordance to
the service schedule and must be in good condition.
