Check footrests & elevating legrests
Check footrests and legrests at least once a month. Inspect the lock-
ing mechanisms to confirm sure fit. Check for cracks, burrs, or sharp
edges, and replace if found. Ensure that the footrest or legrest will
automatically lock securely in place and will not accidentally unlock.
Cleaning your Paramount XD
Wipe off base and seat frame frequently, at least once a week, using
a soft cloth. Dry the wheelchair immediately if exposed to moisture.
Clean the frame every three months with a mild soap and water solu-
tion. The frame chrome does not need to be waxed. Do not use sol-
vents, abrasive waxes, caustic chemicals or spray silicone. Never use
abrasive cleansers; they could scratch the finish. Never use steam or
high pressure cleaners. Clean upholstery and plastic components at
least once a month with a mild soap and water solution.
Check casters
Check the caster stems for proper rotation at least every three
months. The caster fork must swivel freely to facilitate steering and
handling. Adjusting the stem nut varies the amount of force required
to turn the caster. If the nut is too loose, the caster will flutter or
shimmy; if the nut is too tight, the wheelchair will be difficult to
steer. If the caster stem requires adjustment, or the stem bearings
require replacement, contact your Graham-Field Health Products
dealer. Ensure that stems are firmly attached to forks, and that forks
and stems are not bent. Evaluate all threads, locking nuts and bear-
ings.
Check wheel bearings
Have your Graham-Field Health Products dealer check caster and rear
wheel axle bearings at least every six months.
