Troubleshooting
All SP3 wheelchairs leave the factory inspected and adjusted for immediate use, (aside from
the unfolding procedure). This troubleshooting chart offers some suggestions regarding the use
of your wheelchair. Some areas may require more investigation to find the most suitable solu-
tion for a specific problem. A complete inspection, safety check and servicing should be made
by an authorized dealer at least once a year. Any Problems should be directed to your author-
ized dealer or call our customer service department.
