Warning

10. Maintenance and care

GEARWHEEL recommends, in addition to the instructions given by

the wheelchair manufacturer for the wheelchair model, the following

maintenance.

• Check the pressure in the tyres. Unscrew the valve cap and

reinflate the tyre. Maximum tyre pressure is 9 bar. Check for any

damage and wear. If solid tyres are used check for cracks due to age or

wear.

• Check that the brakes/wheel locks function normally and

satisfactorily.

• Use a mild detergent to clean the parts of the wheel. Lubricate

moving parts very lightly with suitable lubricant after washing.

(light oil, e.g. 3-in-1)

• Thoroughly clean the quick-release axles and lubricate very lightly.

Rain, sand, salt, debris, or prolonged periods in which the wheels

are not removed mean cleaning and lubrication need to happen

more often.

• Check that the screws and nuts are tightened.

• Check that the shift lever locks in its end positions (Downshift and

downshift + hillhold) and that the gear shift works correctly in each

gear.

• Check the gear system for damage. In case of damage to wheels

and gear mechanism, contact Decon AB, or a Decon appointed.

All gearwheel parts that may be subject to corrosion are made of aluminium,

stainless steel or steel. The materials and the transitions between the materials

have been surface-treated, which is why there is no increased risk of corrosion.

The product is not crash-tested and is therefore not inten-

ded to be used for transport in vehicles
