9.0 Maintenance and care

Safety Check

As the user you will be the first person to notice any possible

defects. We therefore recommend that before each use, you

check the following:

that the tyre pressure is correct.

that the brakes work correctly.

that all removable parts are securely fastened (e.g. armrests,

footrest hangers, quick-release axles ...).

if there is any damage/defect, please contact your authorised

dealer.

Maintenance

• Check the tyre pressure at regular intervals.

• Check all tyres for wear and damage at regular intervals, at

least annually. Change the tyres as soon as there is any sign

of damage or wear.

• Check the seat and back sling for wear and damage at regular

intervals, at least annually. Change these items as soon as

there is any sign of damage or wear.

• Check all frame and backrest components for wear and

damage at regular intervals, at least annually. Change these

items as soon as there is any sign of damage or wear.

• Check the brakes for wear and damage at regular intervals, at

least annually. Check that they are working properly and are

easy to use. Change the brakes as soon as there is any sign

of damage or wear.

• All of the screws that are critical to using your wheelchair

safely are self-locking nuts. Please check every three months

to make sure that all bolts are secure (see the section on

torque). Safety nuts should only be used once and should be

replaced after use.

• which are critical to using the wheelchair safely have safety

nuts. Safety nuts should only be used once and should be

replaced after use.

• You should only use genuine parts approved by Sunrise

Medical. Do not use parts from other manufacturers, that have

not been by authorised by Sunrise Medical.

NOTE:

If torque settings are given, then we strongly recommend that

you use a torque measuring device, in order to check that you

have tightened to the correct torque.

Please use only mild household cleansers when your

wheelchair is dirty. Use only soap and water when cleaning the

seat upholstery and lap belt.

Depending on the frequency and type of use, we recommend

taking your wheelchair to your authorised dealer regularly, but

at least within a year, to have it maintained by trained

personnel.

CAUTION:

Sand, salt and sea water can damage the bearings of the front

and rear wheels. Clean and dry the wheelchair carefully, after

they have been exposed to these elements.

10.0 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: Handgrips, tube plugs, castor wheels, footplates,

armpads and 12” wheel/tyre

Packaging: Plastic bags made of soft polyethylene, cardboard

Upholstery: Woven polyester with PVC coatings and expanded

Disposal or recycling should be done through a licensed agent

or authorised place of disposal. Alternatively your wheelchair

may be returned to your dealer for disposal.

Hygiene when being reused

When the chair is to be reused, it should be prepared carefully,

and be wiped and treated with spray disinfectant on all surfaces

which could come into contact with the user.

If you need to do this quickly, you must use a liquid, alcohol

based disinfectant suitable for medical products and devices.

Please pay attention to the manufacturer’s instructions of the

disinfectant you are using.

In general, a safe disinfectant cannot be guaranteed on seams.

We therefore recommend, that you properly dispose of seat and

back slings in the case of micro bacterial contamination with

active agents according to § 6 infection protection law.
