manual abstract
Therefore, lubrication is not required for these components. However, the driving axles should always have a very light coat of multipurpose grease. DO NOT USE TOO MUCH GREASE! Drips may stain or damage carpets, furnishings, etc. • It is recommended that the driving axles (inside the drive wheel assy) and castor assemblies be checked and cleaned occasionally for hair and debris build-up, which will hinder the performance of the unit. • Check the batteries on a regular basis. For extended battery life, it is highly recommended that the batteries be fully charged after each use. If the batteries are weak, severely discharged or old, a variety of problems may occur with the unit including charging problems, reduced speed, loss of range, and others. Please contact your provider for battery replacement. 8/16/2005 15 Batteries & Battery Charging Batteries The Shoprider Jiffy Powerchair is designed to operate on two 12 volt/12Ah sealed lead acid or gel type maintenance free batteries. For easy handling, the batteries are contained within a battery-pack. The life of the batteries may be affected by temperature, terrain, weight of user, and care of batteries. The battery gauge (Refer to Figure 2) is a guide on the remaining charge of the batteries. The active user will need to charge the batteries after using approximately more than 30% of battery capacity. As an inactive user, only using from once a week to every other day, the recharge point would be at 50% of discharge (Refer to Figure 8). For extended battery life, it is highly recommended that these guidelines be followed. Keeping the batteries charged will extend the life of the batteries Batteries should be kept fully charged at all times. They must not be left in a discharged state if the unit is not being used for some time or the “charging space” within the batteries will be lost and can never be regained. The batteries should be checked once a month and kept charged as needed. Red Bottom Amber Middle Green Top3 Bars 4 Bars 3 Bars Flashing.
