9.0 Maintenance and care

Safety Check
As the user you will be the first person to notice any
possible defects. We therefore recommend that before
each use, you check the following:
• The tyre pressure is correct.
• The brakes work correctly.
• All removable parts are securely fastened (e.g.
armrests, footrest hangers, quick-release axles ...).
• if there is any damage/defect, please contact your
authorised dealer.
Maintenance
• Check the tyre pressure at regular intervals.
• Check all tyres for wear and damage at regular
intervals, at least annually. Change the tyres as soon as
there is any sign of damage or wear.
• Check the seat and back sling for wear and damage at
regular intervals, at least annually. Change these items
as soon as there is any sign of damage or wear.
• Check all frame and backrest components for wear and
damage at regular intervals, at least annually. Change
these items as soon as there is any sign of damage or
wear.
• Check the brakes for wear and damage at regular
intervals, at least annually. Check that they are working
properly and are easy to use. Change the brakes as
soon as there is any sign of damage or wear.
• Check to make sure all bolts are secure (see the section
on torque) at regular intervals, at least annually. All
screws which are critical to using the wheelchair safely
have safety nuts. Safety nuts should only be used once
and should be replaced after use.
• A small amount of sewing-machine oil should be applied
to quick-release axles approximately every 8 weeks.
Depending on the frequency and type of use, we
recommend taking your wheelchair to your authorised
dealer every 6 months to have it inspected by trained
personnel.
CAUTION!
• If torque settings are given, then we strongly
recommend that you use a torque measuring device,
in order to check that you have tightened to the correct
torque.
• Please use only mild household cleaners when your
wheelchair is dirty. Use only soap and water when
cleaning the seat upholstery and lap belt.
• Depending on the frequency and type of use, we
recommend taking your wheelchair to your authorised
dealer regularly, but at least within a year, to have it
maintained by trained personnel.

Hygiene when being reused:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully
prepared. All surfaces which come into contact with the
user must be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a disinfectant from the DGHM
list, e.g. Antifect Liquid (Schülke & Mayr) for rapid
alcohol-based disinfection for medical products and
medical devices, which must be disinfected quickly.
Please take into account the manufacturer's instructions
for the disinfectant you are using.
In general, a complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed
on seams. We therefore recommend that you dispose
of seat and back slings to avoid microbacterial
contamination with active agents according to § 6
infection protection law.
