Invacare® Action 2 NG
Checking after a heavy collision or blow
IMPORTANT!
The wheelchair can sustain visibly undetectable
damage as a result of a heavy collision or hard
blow.
– It is essential to have your wheelchair checked
by an authorized dealer after a heavy collision
or hard blow.
Repairing or changing an inner tube
1. Remove the rear wheel and release any air from the
inner tube.
2. Lift one tire wall away from the rim using a bicycle tire
lever. Do not use sharp objects such as a screwdriver
which could damage the inner tube.
3. Pull the inner tube out of the tire.
4. Repair the inner tube using a bicycle repair kit or, if
necessary, replace the tube.
5. Inflate the tube slightly until it becomes round.
6. Insert the valve into the valve hole on the rim and place
the tube inside the tire (the tube should lie right round
the tire with no creases).
7. Lift the tire wall over the edge of the rim. Start close to
the valve and use a bicycle tire lever. When doing this,
check all the way round to ensure that the inner tube is
not trapped between the tire and the rim.
8. Inflate the tire to the maximum operating pressure.
Check that no air is escaping from the tire.

8.3 Cleaning

Your wheelchair will serve you well for many years if you
clean it regularly.
IMPORTANT!
Sand and seawater can damage the bearings and
steel parts can rust if the surface is damaged.
– Only expose the wheelchair to sand and
seawater for short periods and clean it after
every trip to the beach.
IMPORTANT!
– Do not use coarse abrasives, aggressive cleaning
products or high-pressure cleaners. Never use
acids, alkalines or solvents such as acetone or
cellulose thinner.
– Always use ordinary household cleaning agents.
1. Clean the cushions and metal parts with a soft, damp
cloth.
2. Dry the wheelchair carefully with a cloth after using it
in the rain.
3. If the wheelchair is dirty, wipe off the dirt as soon as
possible with a damp cloth and dry it carefully.
