An electric wheel chair can provide independence for anyone who has a problem with limited mobility. The electric powered chair makes it easy for someone to get around without the effort that is required to maneuver a traditional wheel chair. It is important to properly maintain an electric wheel chair so that the freedom it provides can be enjoyed as long as possible.
Charging Routines
The batteries that run electric wheel chairs need to be charged regularly. Since they are large batteries, they require longer charging times than a typical AA or AAA rechargeable battery. It is important that you do not leave the chair battery on the charger more often than necessary because this will cause the battery to drain more quickly. Read your manufacturer’s suggestions for charging length and create a regular routine of plugging the chair in at the same time every day and unplugging it when it is fully charged.
Cleaning the Mechanism
There are some fine working parts involved in making an electric wheel chair run properly. You should clean the parts once a week. Cleaning should take place more often if the chair is used in situations that could make it dirtier than usual. If a chair is driven through gravel or sand, for example, it may require cleaning every other day. You can clean the mechanism with a small damp cloth. Cracks and crevices can be cleaned by using a small brush to get rid of dust that collects in them.
Storage Suggestions
While the chair is not in use it should be stored in a safe place. If possible, keep the chair in a closet or pantry where it will not collect as much dust as it would if it were sitting out in an open room. Make sure the chair is safe from curious children or pets who may cause damage while it is being stored. The storage area should be easy for the chair’s user to access so that he or she can use the chair whenever necessary. The main purpose of the chair is to provide freedom and independence, so it is important that the chair’s user can get the chair out when they like.
