8.0 Maintenance

Periodic inspection of the wheelchair is vital to guarantee
maximum performance and a long life. A careful check, repeated
at regular intervals, along with an appropriate use of the
wheelchair (see chapters 2.0 "Safety" and 5.0 "Using the
wheelchair") will ensure that your wheelchair will last for many
years.
To clean the aluminium parts (frame, hand rims, brakes etc..), the
backrest and the seat, we recommend using only a soft, damp
cloth.
Within
go to an authorized PROGEO dealer for a complete
check up of your wheelchair. The manufacturer will
accept no responsibility in case of non compliance
with the instructions or recommendations as set out
in this manual and any such activity will result in the
all
immediate
warranty.
We recommend paying particular attention to the
cleaning of the handrims of the rear wheels, which
become dirty very easily because of their constant
use and nearness to the ground. Careful cleaning
the handrims will ensure optimum grip and therefore
safer operation.
When cleaning the wheelchair, do not use abrasive
from
cleaning agents or degreasing substances which
could cause damage.
Sand and sea water may damage the wheel
bearings. Check the bearings carefully if contact is
suspected. Lubricate with a non-resin based light
bicycle oil.
