General Maintenance and Lubrication

ƒInspection for loose wheel bolts, seat and arm tightening bolts, castor nuts and other nuts and bolts is recommended on a regular basis.

ƒMost lubricated components on the Powerchair are designed to be maintenance free and are sealed. Therefore, lubrication is not required for these components. However, the driving wheel axles and seat post should always have a very light coat of multi-purpose grease.**NOTE** Never put grease or oil in the breather cap located on the top of each worm gear.

DO NOT USE TOO MUCH GREASE!

Drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishings, etc.

ƒIt is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assembly) and castor assemblies be checked and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up, which will hinder the performance of the unit.

ƒCheck the 6Runner’s batteries on a regular basis. For extended battery life, it is highly recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. If the batteries are weak, severely discharged or old, a variety of problems may occur with the unit including charging problems, reduced speed, loss of range, loss of charge capacity and others. Please contact your provider for battery replacement and proper disposal. Note: Charging your batteries daily will enhance the life of your batteries. If the batteries are left unattended for extended periods of time, it is recommended that they be left in a fully charged state. Leaving your batteries in a discharged state, or not charging them regularly will diminish the life of your batteries and cause irreversible damage to your batteries.
