How can manual wheelchairs last longer?

Apr 16, 2024|

1. Avoid hitting the wheelchair with heavy objects. The wheelchair is composed of many gears, axles, connecting rods, etc., which need to be handled carefully during use to prevent damage to the parts of the wheelchair caused by the impact of heavy objects during use, and then the use of obstacles.

2. Manual wheelchairs should not be exposed to the sun for a long time. When using a wheelchair, be careful not to expose the wheelchair to the sun for a long time, as the sunlight will make the wheelchair cushion and tires soften, which in turn will reduce the life of the wheelchair.

3. Regular maintenance of manual wheelchairs. Wheelchairs are aging and worn out when using connecting rods, paint, and tires, and require regular maintenance to ensure the normal use of the wheelchair. For example, applying petroleum jelly will help wheelchairs prevent rust and increase their lifespan. In addition, simple cleaning of the wheelchair can be carried out on a regular basis, such as scrubbing parts, cleaning sediment, etc., which also helps to extend the life of the wheelchair.

4. Avoid staying the manual wheelchair on the unstable ground for a long time when using. Because if the manual wheelchair stays on the unbalanced ground for a long time, it will affect the service life of the manual wheelchair parts.
