WARNING! Corrosive chemicals are contained in the batteries. Use
only AGM or gel-cell batteries to reduce the risk of leakage or

Transportation
Always be sure your power chair and its components are properly secured when it is
being transported. Please contact your Magic Mobility Dealer for advice regarding
packing and shipping your particular chair.
8.8
Daily Checks
Turn off the controller and check the joystick. The joystick should return to centre and
not be bent or damaged in any way. Ensure the joystick boot is not torn or cracked
where water can enter and that all electrical connections are secure.
STOP! Do not use the joystick if the boot is torn or cracked. If the
joystick boot becomes torn or cracked, ensure it is replaced
IMMEDIATELY.
8.9
Weekly Checks
Visually inspect the controller harnesses. Ensure they are not frayed and have any
wires exposed.
Check the tyre and castor pressure is to the specification as detailed in section 8.3
Check the tyres and castors for wear
Check the brakes by pushing the joystick slowly forward until you hear the electric
brakes click. Immediately release the joystick. The brakes should operate with a few
seconds of moving the joystick. Repeat this test by pushing the joystick rearwards,
left and then right.
Visually check the castor forks for any damage and ensure the castors swivel freely
without squeaking.
Keep your power chair clean and free from foreign material.
STOP! If any of the above checks reveal a problem, please see your
Magic Mobility Dealer for repair.
8.10 Six Monthly Checks
Take your power chair to your Magic Mobility Dealer to ensure it is functioning
correctly (see section 9)
9 Servicing
Please contact your Magic Mobility Dealer to arrange your six monthly service. Your
local representative can also discuss the availability of loan (rental) units during
repairs and servicing. It should be noted that many of our power chairs are highly
customised and a loan (rental) chair may not be appropriate.
