Maintenance
Lifetime of the wheelchair is influenced by its use, storage, regular maintenance, servicing
and cleaning.
1.1
Regular Maintenance
The maintenance activities to ensure a good condition for your Vermeiren wheelchair are
described below:

Before every ride
 Check the tyres and make them clean. If necessary change the tire.
 Check the tyre pressure, if necessary pump it up (only for air tyres).
 Check screw fastenings, levers, adjusting buttons are secured.
 Check the brakes and adjusted if necessary.
 Check the wheelchair (cleanliness, cracks, damage on structural parts ... .)
and make it clean. If necessary change the coating.

Every 8 weeks: inspection and possibly lubricating or adjusting from
 Armrests or splash guards
 Footrests or footbracket
 Brake lever
 Wheel axles
 Backrest adjusting system (For wheelchairs with backrest inclination)
 Other adjusting systems

Every year or for every new user
 General review
 Disinfection
 Frontwheels, possibly clean bearings
For your convenience, on the back of this manual is a maintenance plan.
Repairing and assembling of spare parts for your wheelchair may only be performed by the
specialist dealer.
Only authorized Vermeiren spare parts may be installed.
1.2
Shipping and storage
The shipping and storage of the wheelchair shall be according following instructions:
 Store in a dry place (between +5 °C and +41 °C).
 The relative humidity of the air should be between 30% and 70%.
 Provide sufficient covering or packaging to protect the wheelchair from rust and
foreign bodies. (e.g. salt water, sea air, sand, dust).
 Store all removed parts together in one place (or mark them if necessary) to avoid
mixing up with other products when re-assembling.
 Components must be stored without being subjected to strains (Do not put too heavy
parts on the wheelchair, not clamping between something, ...).

1.3
Care
1.3.1 Seat and back cushion
The cleaning of the seat and back cushion shall be according:
 Clean seat and back with a cloth moistened with warm water. Be aware that you do
not soak the seat and back cushion.
 Use a mild commercial detergent for removing stubborn dirt.
 Stains can be removed by using a sponge or a soft brush.
 Do not use strong cleaning liquids like solvents, nor use hard brushes, sharp-edged
objects.
 Never clean with steam and/or pressure washers.
1.3.2 Plastic parts
Clean plastic parts of your wheelchair with commercial plastic cleaners. Please comply with
special product information. Only use a soft brush or soft sponge. Examples of plastic parts
are the armpads / splash guards, footplates, handgrips, tyres and ... .
1.3.3 Coating
The high quality of the surface layer guarantees optimal protection against corrosion. If the
outer coat is damaged by scratching or in some other way, get your specialist dealer to
repair the affected surface.
When cleaning, only use warm water and normal household detergents and soft brushes
and cloths. Ensure that no wetness gets into the tubes.
Initially the zinc parts only require rubbing with a dry cloth. Stubborn dirt can best be
removed by using a suitable commercial zinc polish.
1.4
Inspection
In principle we recommend one inspection every year, and a minimum of one before usage
is resumed. All of the following checks must be performed and documented by authorized
persons:
 Check the frame parts and the hinged tubes for plastic deformation, cracks and
impaired functioning.
 Visually check for damage to the paintwork (danger of corrosion).
 Check the operation of the wheels (free running, level rolling, axle play, tyres, profile,
condition of the rims, air pressure in the case of air tyres, floating axles, etc.).
 Check the solidity and seating of all screws.
 Verify the amount of grease on the metal joints of movable parts.
 The condition and security of the guides and axles of the steering wheels.
 Visually check all plastic parts for cracks and brittle spots.
 Check the functioning of the armrests / splash guards and footrests (locking, load,
deformation, wear and tear caused by loads, adjustment levers).
 Check the functioning of all adjusting mechanisms, levers and adjusting screws.
 Check the operation of other detachable parts (example: anti-tipping, personal safety
belt, fitting back/seat, etc.).
 Functional testing of the cables (kinks, foreign parts penetration), levers and
adjusters. If necessary, adjustment of the steel wire cables over the screws at their
respective ends (For the wheelchairs were cables are available).
 Check functioning of the gas pressure spring (synchronized, deformation, oiled) (For
wheelchairs were a gas pressure spring is available).
