Maintenance Safety Precautions

hardware is tightened securely. Otherwise injury or damage may result.

Suggested Maintenance Procedures
1. Before using your wheelchair, make sure all nuts and bolts are tight. Check all parts
for damage or wear and replace. Check all parts for proper adjustment.
2. Standard and Light Wight ONLY - Keep quick-release axles free of dirt and lint to
ensure positive locking and proper operation. Refer to Adjusting the Quick-Release
Axle on page 48.
3. Oil quick-release axles at least once a month (3-in-1 oil®
or equivalent).
ƽ WARNING
DO NOT use the wheelchair unless it has the proper tire pressure (p.s.i.). DO NOT
overinflate the tires. Failure to follow these suggestions may cause the tire to
explode and cause bodily harm.
4. If tires are pneumatic, recommended tire pressure is listed on the sidewall of the tire.
CAUTION
As with any vehicle, the rear wheels, casters and tires should be checked periodi-
cally for cracks and wear, and should be replaced if damaged.
5. The rear wheels, casters and tires should be checked periodically for cracks and wear,
and should be replaced by a qualified technician if damaged.
NOTE: Tire wear is excessive if:
• Pneumatic Tires - there is missing tread or the tires are bald.
• Urethane Tires - there are cuts, surface defects or the tires are loose on the rims.
• Rubber Tires - 30% or more of the tire has worn away.
NOTE: Invacare recommends that tires and casters be replaced every five years.
6. Periodically adjust wheel locks in correlation to tire wear. Refer to Adjusting
Patient-Operated Wheel Locks on page 54.
