The daily maintenance of wheelchairs is also very important. A well maintained wheelchair can make us feel comfortable and convenient. If there are problems everywhere in the wheelchair, even sitting on it will be uncomfortable. Attention shall be paid to several parts for wheelchair maintenance:
1. If the brake is not tight, it will not only be inconvenient to use, but also cause danger. Therefore, the brake is firm. If the brake is not tight, it can be adjusted back appropriately and the fixing screws can be tightened;
2. The handwheel is the device that we control the wheelchair ourselves, so it is firmly fixed with the rear wheel;
3. The rear wheel and the rear wheel should pay attention to the bearing. If the wheelchair has been used for a long time, the bearing will become loose, causing the rear wheel to shake, which will cause great inconvenience when walking. Therefore, the fixed nut should be checked regularly and the bearing should be greased regularly to make profits. The tire should be kept full of air, which is not only conducive to action, but also can reduce vibration;

5. Pedals, the pedals of different wheelchairs can be fixed or adjustable, but no matter which, it is better to adjust them to their own.
