4.4 Inspection
In principle we recommend one inspection every year, and a minimum of one before usage
is resumed. All of the following checks must be performed and documented by authorized
persons:
Check the frame parts and the hinged tubes for plastic deformation, cracks and
impaired functioning.
Visually check for damage to the paintwork (danger of corrosion)
Check the operation of the wheels (free running, level rolling, axle play, tyres, profile,
condition of the rims, air pressure in the case of air tyres, floating axles, etc.)
Check the solidity and seating of all screws.
Verify the amount of grease on the metal joints of movable parts
The condition and security of the guides and axles of the steering wheels
Visually check all plastic parts for cracks and brittle spots
Check the functioning of the armrests and leg supports (locking, load, deformation,
wear caused by loads).
Check the operation of other detachable parts (example: anti-tipping device, personal
safety belt, fitting back/seat, etc.)
Completeness of the delivery condition, instruction manual available?
The service must only be signed off in the maintenance plan if a minimum of all the above-
mentioned aspects have been checked.
