10.3 changing Tyres
nOTE!
Direct sunlight (UV light) causes the tyres to
age prematurely. As a result, the tread surface
hardens and corner pieces break out of the
tread.
nOTE!
Whenever possible, avoid parking the wheel-
chair outdoors. Regardless of wear and tear,
the tyres should be replaced every 2 years.
When the wheelchair is not used for extended
periods of time, or if the tyres are heated
strongly (e. g. near radiators or by sunlight
shining through a window), permanent defor-
mation of the tyres will result. Therefore always
make sure that the wheelchair has sufficient
distance from sources of heat, move your
wheelchair from time to time, or jack up the
wheelchair when storing it.
To change the tyre of a drive wheel, proceed as follows:
Secure the wheelchair to prevent it from tilting to the
❒
side by placing a suitable base under the drive unit
support.
