- Ensure Actuator Rod ends are secure and pinned properly.
- Ensure no sticking/interference during system operation (over full range of seating system)

The expense involved is always less than repair bills caused by a lack of proper maintenance. In the
same way a car would not last without service, a wheelchair should be maintained regulary.
Yearly
- Thoroughly examine your wheelchair to look for undetected wear and other potential problems and
have problems repaired immediately.
!
WARNING:
- If you ever notice any part of your tilt seating system or wheelchair base working in an improper or
unsafe manner, stop using it immediately and contact your dealer to arrange repairs. Do not use your
tilt/wheelchair if there is any possibility it is not safe!
