X. CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your power chair, like most electrical equipment, is susceptible to
damage from the elements. Avoid damp areas of any kind.
CAUTION! Direct exposure to water or dampness
could cause the power chair to malfunction elec-
tronically and mechanically. Water can cause
electrical components to corrode and the chairs
frame to rust.
TIRES AND TUBES
If your Jazzy 1113 is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should
check the air pressure at least once a week. This prolongs the life
of your tires and helps to ensure the perfect operation of your
chair. If you have a flat tire, replace the tube. Replacement tires and
tubes are readily available through the provider where you purchased
your Jazzy 1113.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, be sure that
the controllers power is turned off and the power
chair is not in freewheel mode before performing
this procedure.
WARNING! Completely deflate the tire before at-
tempting repair.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe tube or
tire replacement:
1. Completely deflate the tire (if pneumatic).
2. Remove the nut from wheel axle. See figure 33.
3. Pull the wheel off of the axle.
4. Separate the tire and tube from the rim.
5. Remove the old tube and/or tire and replace with new tube or tire.
6. Slide the wheel back onto the shaft and torque the nut to 16
ft.-lbs.
7. Inflate the tire to 30 - 35 psi (if pneumatic).
