we recommend using the generally available disinfectants without chlorine and phenol. The manufacturer is not
responsible for the damage caused by wrong usage of disinfectants.
7. Maintenance & Service
Despite the solid construction and usage of resistant materials the product is subject to wear. It is therefore
recommended to have a professional checking the product at regular intervals
For basic service actions a set of socket wrenches, adjustable spanner, flat head- and cross screwdriver will be
enough.
Parts, which should be regularly inspected:
Part name
Control Type
Control frequency
Tyres
Check tyre pressure (4,0 - 6,5 bar), condition of tread and tyres.
One should take care, to keep the pressure in both tyres on the
same level. Harder tyres provide better maneuverability and
easiness of driving but reduce comfort on bumpy surfaces.
At least once a week
Front
castor
assembly
Check that the screws are properly tightened. Looseness of the
front fork can cause damage, breakage of bolts which can cause
an accident, check and remove dirt, hair from the front wheel axles
At least once a week
Spokes
Loose spokes can cause deformation of the rear wheels. Contact
your dealer or local bicycle service to manage the problem of loose
spokes.
If the problem occurs
Wheel axles
Check that they are not dirty. Remove all impurities.
If necessary
Push Rims
Check for deformation and wear. They can lead to hand injuries.
If necessary
Brakes
The braking force depends on the tyre pressure. The efficiency of
brake operation can be also affected with dirt accumulated on
tyres. Keep the brakes clean wiping them with a damp cloth to
remove dirt, and lubricating the funnel of screws, on which the
brake levers turn. Check the brake horizontal position.
At least once a week.
Frame
It is recommended to keep the frame clean to better control wear
At least once a month,
depending
on
usage
conditions
Front castor
The area between the fork and the front wheel should be kept
clean, because dirt accumulating there can cause faster wear of
caster bearings. To do so, one should disassemble the front caster
by disassembling it from the fork, to remove all dirt, and then
preserve the metal elements of the wheel (i.e. to apply technical
grease).
At least once a month, if
necessary.
Detachable
elements
Check the condition of detachable elements of the wheelchair; if
screws are loose, they should be tightened.
Once a month.
Most common problems and solutions
If you notice any irregularities in the wheelchair’s functioning, do not use it – you should contact your local point of sale
or the service department of the wheelchair supplier. The manufacturer does not warranty correctness of the
wheelchair operation, if non-original parts are used.
