7 Maintance, Cleaning and Care
Your Start wheelchair has been provided with the CE marking. The manufacturer herewith gu-
arantees that this medical product as a whole conforms to the requirements of the European
Directive for Medical Products 93/42/EEC.
The proper function of the wheelchair, especially of the brakes, should be checked before every
use. Safety nuts should be used only once. If they have been loosened several times, they must
be replaced.
In the case of defects, contact your authorized dealer immediately to eliminate them. This applies
in particular when the driving behavior changes or the wheelchair becomes unstable.
We also recommend that you have the wheelchair serviced every 12 months by your Otto Bock
authorized dealer.
The following table lists functions which the user must check at the indicated intervals.
Check before each use monthly quaterly
Function test of the wheel locks/brakes X
Sagging of the seat or back upholstery X
Setting of the caster journal bearing X
Sight-check of wearing parts (e.g. tires, bearings) X
Dirt on bearings X
Push rings for damages X
Air pressure (see indication on tire) X
Folding mechanism for wear and tear X
Spoke tension of the rear wheels X
Screw connections X
To ensure smooth operation at all times, some parts of the wheelchair can be maintained by
users with minimal technical skills:
Hair and dirt frequently collect between the caster forks and the casters; over time, they make
the casters stiff to operate. Remove the casters and thoroughly clean the forks and casters
using a mild household cleaner.
The rear wheels and casters may have been configured as a quick-release axle system. To keep
this system operational, ensure that no dirt adheres to the quick-release axle or quick-release
axle housing. Periodically lubricate the quick-release axle very lightly with resin-free sewing
machine oil.
If your wheelchair gets wet, it is recommended to dry it off as soon as possible.
Do not use your wheelchair in salt water and, if possible, prevent sand or other dirt particles
from coming into contact with the wheel bearings.
