Maintenance
Before working on the wheelchair's electrical system the connection to the
negative pole of the battery must always be removed.
Be careful with any metal objects when working on the battery. A short circuit
could easily cause an explosion. Always wear safety gloves and goggles.
Make sure nothing is trapped between the chassis and the seat when oper-
ating the seat lift.
General
For optimum performance of your wheelchair it is important to take good care of it.
All wheelchairs are subject to wear, partly due to moving parts and partly due to
stresses.
What you need to know is how your wheelchair works, how to drive and use it in
the best way and how to take regular care of it.
The purpose of preventive maintenance is to prevent problems arising. If you
look after your wheelchair it will function well and the risk of faults will be
reduced.
