8.2User/Attendant Inspection Checklists

Every six months, and as necessary, take your wheelchair to a qualified technician for a thorough inspection and servicing. Service Inspection on page 73.

Weekly, monthly and periodic inspections should be performed by user/attendant between the six month service inspections.

Regular cleaning will reveal loose or worn parts and enhance the smooth operation of your wheelchair. To operate properly and safely, your wheelchair must be cared for just like any other vehicle. Routine maintenance will extend the life and efficiency of your wheelchair.

Ensure that the casters are free of debris.

Inspect tires for flat spots and wear.

Inspect all fasteners.

Inspect TRBKTS fasteners and hardware.

Inspect the anti-tippers for loose hardware or damage.

Ensure proper operation of powered functions (Example: drive, seating and legrests).
