2024-05-24

Routine maintenance is critical to maintaining the performance and longevity of your power wheelchair. Here are some things to note:


Regular Cleaning: Regular cleaning of your power wheelchair will prevent dust, dirt, and debris from accumulating and affecting the performance and appearance of your power wheelchair. Wipe the frame, seat and control panel with a damp cloth and make sure the wheelchair is dry.


Check the battery: Regularly check whether the battery cables and connectors are secure and clean the battery surface to avoid dirt affecting battery performance. At the same time, regularly check the charging status of the battery to ensure timely charging and avoid excessive battery discharge.


Keep your tires in good condition: Check your tire pressure regularly and inflate or replace them as needed. Make sure your tires wear evenly to avoid instability and increased friction caused by uneven wear.


Check the braking system: Check the braking system of the electric wheelchair regularly to ensure that the brakes are sensitive and reliable. If the brake is found to be defective, it should be repaired or replaced in time.


Lubricate key components: Regularly lubricate key components of electric wheelchairs, such as steering systems, seat adjustment mechanisms, etc., to ensure their normal operation and extend their service life.


Check the electric system: Regularly check the connecting wires and connectors of the electric system to ensure the stability and reliability of the electric system. At the same time, pay attention to whether the motor of the electric wheelchair produces abnormal sounds or vibrations, and repair it in time.


Regular inspection and maintenance: Regular comprehensive inspection and maintenance, including but not limited to seats, suspension systems, steering systems, controllers and other components. If any abnormalities or faults are found, they should be repaired or replaced in time.


Avoid getting damp and being exposed to humid environment for a long time: The internal electronic components of the electric wheelchair are sensitive to humid environment. Avoid being exposed to humid environment for a long time to prevent circuit failure or corrosion.
