Five Easy Ways To Prevent Wheelchair Repair

• Make sure your wheelchair tires have an optimum level of air to assist your movement. A flat tire can wear out your battery or cause you strain when pushing your wheelchair.

• Clean your wheelchair on a regular basis to keep the parts running smoothly and avoid rust.

• Check to make sure the axle and axle plate on your wheelchair are tight. This will ensure the axle doesn’t become damaged during movement.

• Check the nuts and bolts to make sure they’re tight and that no wheelchair parts will come loose.

• Exercise caution when going through very steep inclines. There is a possibility that your wheelchair may flip over.
