23 Maintenance

23.1 General instructions

The product is not a maintenance-free device.
Therefore, please observe the following in-
structions about maintenance.
For tyres with tread: As soon as there is
one or more points with less than 1 mm of
tread on the product or the adapted wheel-
chair, the tyres must be changed since other-
wise there is an increased risk of an accident.
For tyres without thread: As soon as there
is one or more points where the tyre carcass or
the accident protection is visible on the product
or the adapted wheelchair, the tyres must be
changed since otherwise there is an increased
risk of an accident.
When maintaining the brakes and the
gear components, it is imperative that the op-
erating instructions of the manufacturer which
were included in delivery are followed.
Only manufacturer's original parts may be
used when ordering spare parts.
Service and repairs to the product may
only be carried out by your dealer or PRO AC-
TIV.
Tightening torques and securing details for
fastening elements as shown in the table in
chapter 29 must be observed.

23.2 Service schedules

which should be carried out by the user


Gear and brake cables or brake lines
should be checked for any kinks or crush-
ing.

Check the brake pads.

Check the plug contacts of the drive sys-
tem; if required clean with a soft, dry brush
and re-grease (using petroleum jelly).

Check the tyre pressure and correct if
needed (the tyre pressure should always
be as printed on the tyre covers).
If you should discover any problems dur-
ing these checks, please immediately contact
your dealer or PRO ACTIV. Service and repair
work on the product may only be carried out by
your dealer or PRO ACTIV.
In addition to these maintenance tasks /
checks by the user, PRO ACTIV has pre-
scribed maintenance tasks to be carried out
by the dealer or PRO ACTIV for safe opera-
tion of the product and to minimise the risk to
the user or third-parties.
The initial inspection is performed after running
200 kilometres or 5 months after delivery
(whichever comes first). The maintenance
schedule can be found in the inspection lists in
chapter 32.
Subsequent inspections are then always per-
formed after 1,000 kilometres running or after a
period of 1 year (whichever comes first). The
maintenance schedule can be found in the
inspection lists in chapter 32.
After extreme loads, e.g. during holidays where
the product was used on sand, near sea water
or in snow, it is recommended that an addi-
tional deep clean and inspection is performed
by your dealer or PRO ACTIV.
To maintain the operating licence and the war-
ranty validity, the performance of the mainte-
nance tasks must be documented. Any faults
identified during maintenance work must be
rectified and documented as such before fur-
ther use of the product.
