SECTION 15:
ANNUAL PRODUCT
INSPECTION
(THERAPIST, TECHNICIAN, LECKEY
PRODUCT ADVISOR, DEALER)
Leckey recommend that each product
should be subject to a detailed inspection
at least once a year and every time
the product is reissued for use. This
inspection should be carried out by a
technically competent person who has
been trained in the use of the product
and should include the following checks
as a minimum requirement.
1. Check that there is no lateral
movement or wobble in any of the
moving parts. Ensure all adjustment
knobs and bolts are in place and
secure.
2. Check all ratchet handles, knobs,
nuts, bolts and plastic buckles are in
place, replacing any missing items.
Paying particular attention to the
following items;
•
Headsupport locking bolts.
•
Backrest height and angle
adjustments bolts.
•
Seat depth adjustment bolts.
•
Leeway Pelvic Cradle / hip guide
attachment bolts.
•
Footrest height and angle
adjustment.
3. Check the chassis height adjustment
mechanism is working properly. If the
chassis is foot pedal operated ensure
the seat height doesn't change when
the pedal is released. Also, check that
the locking pin engages securely to
prevent accidental height adjustment
of the chassis.
4. Adjust the seat to its maximum
range of tilt in space and ensure
that the locking lever locks the seat
out securely at varying point in this
range.
5. Check that where the seat and
chassis join there is no visible wear
and tear on the metal components.
6. Lift the base to check each castor
individually. Make sure they are
moving freely and remove any dirt
from the rubber wheels. Check that
the brakes lock the wheels securely
7. Visually check the structure of the
product paying attention to weld
points on the frame ensuring there
are no signs of fatigue or cracking
around the welds.
8. Leckey recommend that a written
record is maintained of all annual
product inspections.
