Care and Maintenance
Before each use of the chair, the brakes and tyres should be
checked.
The chair should be stored in a dry environment, away from direct
sunlight. When in storage the chair should be kept clean and dust
free. This can be done with a duster or damp cloth.
The chair can be hosed down or wiped down with mild detergent.
After washing, wipe the chair dry. It is recommended that all castors,
joints and fasteners are sprayed with a water dispersing agent.
The device has an estimated service life of 6 years in a single user
domestic environment, provided that the device has been
maintained in line with manufacturer’s recommendations. If the
device is used in a multi user environment (such as a nursing home or
hospital) then service life may be reduced.
It is recommended that the device is serviced at least annually. If the
device is subject to heavy use and/or use in a multi user environment
then we recommend the device is serviced more frequently. The
issuer or user should routinely check the following items, and when
the device is reissued. It is recommended that a Drive Medical
dealer services the wheelchair annually, where these items should be
repaired, replaced, adjusted and/or lubricated if required:
Tyre wear
Wheel bearings
Castors
Brakes
Leg rest locking mechanism
Seat and Back Pads
Arm Pads
Quick Release Pin
Potty and Lid
‘E’ clips
