Tyres
Since your tyres are flat free tires, there is no need to ever worry about tire air pressure.
General Maintenance and Lubrication
Ensure the powerchair is serviced by an authorised Shoprider dealer every 12
months to ensure it remains in safe working order failure to do so may cause
catastrophic failure with possible injury and damage to surrounding property
Inspection for loose wheel bolts, seat and arm tightening bolts, and other nuts and
bolts is recommended on a regular basis.
Most lubricated components on the Powerchair are designed to be maintenance free
and are sealed. Therefore lubrication is not required for these components. However,
the driving axles and seat post should always have a very light coat of multipurpose
grease.
DO NOT USE TOO MUCH GREASE!
Drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishings, etc.
It is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assembly) be
checked and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up, which will hinder the
performance of the unit.
Check the batteries on a regular basis. For extended battery life, it is highly
recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. If the batteries are
weak, severely discharged or old, a variety of problems may occur with the unit
including charging problems, reduced speed, loss of range, and others. Please
contact your local SHOPRIDER
®
provider for battery replacement.

wipe down the covers. Do not soak the unit as damage to the electrical system may
occur.
If the seat requires cleaning us a mild solution of detergent and damp sponge to
