Maintenance and care
• If your wheelchair should ever get wet, please dry it
afterwards.
• A small amount of sewing-machine oil should be applied
to quick-release axles approximately every 8 weeks.
Depending on the frequency and type of use, we
recommend taking your wheelchair to your authorised
dealer every 6 months to have it inspected by trained
personnel.
CAUTION !
Sand and sea water (or salt in the winter) can damage the
bearings of the front and rear wheels. Clean the
wheelchair thoroughly after exposure.
The following parts can be removed and sent back to the
manufacturer/dealer for repair:
• Rear wheels
• Armrest
• Footrest holder
• Anti-Tip tubes
These components are available as spare parts. For
further
information, please see the spare parts catalogue.
Hygiene measures when being re-used:
Prior to the wheelchair being re-used, it must be carefully
prepared. All surfaces which come into contact with the
user must be treated with a disinfection spray.
To do this, you must use a disinfectant from the DGHM
list, e.g. Antifect Liquid (Schülke & Mayr) for rapid alcohol-
based disinfection for medical products and medical
devices, which must be disinfected quickly.
Please take into account the manufacturer's instructions
for the disinfectant you are using.
In general, a complete disinfection cannot be guaranteed
on seams. We therefore recommend that you dispose of
seat and back slings to avoid microbacterial contamination
with active agents according to § 6 infection protection
law.
7.0 Disposal / Recycling of materials
If the wheelchair has been made available to you free of
charge, then it does not belong to you. If it is no longer
required, then follow the instructions to return it as given
by the organisation that made the wheelchair available to
you.
In the following section, there is a description of the
materials used on the wheelchair, in view of the disposal
or recycling of the wheelchair and its packaging.
Particular regulations with regard to disposal or recycling
may be in force locally and these must be taken into
account when performing disposal. (This can include the
cleaning or decontamination of the wheelchair prior to
disposal).
Aluminium: Castor forks, wheels, sideguards for the
chassis, armrest frame, footrest, push handles
Steel: Fixing points, quick-release axle
Plastic: Handles, tube stoppers, castors, footplates,
armpads and 12” wheel/tyre
Packaging: Plastic bags made of soft polyethylene,

your wheelchair to your dealer for disposal.
