Maintenance
To keep your wheelchair in good working order, some simple maintenance can be done along with
the regular periodic service inspections done by your local Eclipse Medical dealer. By doing these
simple inspections, you make sure that your chair will provide you with several years of service.
1.
During the first month of use, before using the chair, check all screws and nuts to see if
they need to be tightened. Then, every 3 months during normal use, check that all
screws and nuts are tight.
2.
Monthly check the tires for damage and wear. If service is needed, contact your dealer.
3.
If the wheelchair becomes wet, dry it immediately with a soft cloth.
4.
Monthly wipe off the frame and all metal parts with a clean soft dry cloth.
5.
Auto wax can be applied on a clean frame and other metal parts of the chair.
6.
A mild soap solution can be used to clean upholstery, rinse with water and wipe dry.
7.
Avoid oil or acid contact with tires to prevent deterioration.
8.
Monthly check the wheel locks and rear brakes. If adjustment is needed contact your
service dealer.
9.
Replace worn or torn upholstery immediately.
