Service & Maintenance
By utilizing state of the art technology and aero-space manufactur-
ing techniques Colours wheelchairs are more advanced than ever.
Due to the rapid pace at which our industry is evolving, it is impos-
sible for us, in a manual like this, to provide the most complete
and current information on repair and maintenance of your Colours
wheelchair. In order to minimize the risk of accidents, poor per-
formance or causing damage to your chair, it is critical that you see
an authorized Colours service provider for all repairs.
Remember, your number one source for information and assistance
is the dealer that delivered your chair. Your nearest dealer can
help answer questions regarding wheelchair adjustment, mainte-
nance and warranty.
Since the maintenance needed for each individual user
will vary, you should consult with your Colours repre-
sentative to establish a periodic maintenance program
suited to your particular use
Cleaning
Upholstery
When cleaning the upholstery, use warm water and a mild soap. Up-
holstery cleaner/foam can also be used, but avoid other cleaning
solvents.
Frame
Whether your Colours frame has been powder coated or anodized,
great care is taken in the choice of material and process to keep
your chair looking it's best. Keeping the chair clean and properly
maintained is as important with your wheelchair as it is with any
other mechanical equipment. Proper maintenance and cleaning will
greatly reduce the chance for performance problems, and can extend
the life of your chair.
Clean the frame parts with warm water and soap, car shampoo or a
mild non-abrasive cleaner. Dry any remaining water from the chair.
One drop of lubricant is recommend, once or twice a year in the
brake assembly and on the backrest hinges to make these parts op-
erate smoothly.
