CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
TIRES AND TUBES
If your Jazzy 1104 is equipped with pneumatic tires, you should check the air pressure at least once a week.
This prolongs the life of your tires and helps ensure the perfect op-
eration of your chair. If you have a flat tire, replace the tube. Re-
placement tires and tubes are readily available at the provider shop
where you purchased your Jazzy 1104.
Follow these easy steps for a quick and safe repair:
1. Completely deflate the tire if pneumatic.
2. Use a 3/4-in. wrench to remove the drive wheel bolt from the
center hub of the wheel. See figure 29.
3. Pull the wheel off of the axle.
4. Remove the nuts that hold the wheel rims together. Figure 29. Drive Wheel
DRIVE WHEEL BOLT
WARNING! Make sure the tire is completely deflated
before attempting repair.
WARNING! To avoid possible injury, be sure that the
controller’s power is turned off and the power chair is
not in freewheel mode before performing this
procedure.
WARNING! If you fail to store the unit properly, the frame can rust and the electronics can be
damaged.
CAUTION! Never hose off your Jazzy or place it in direct contact with water. Your Jazzy has a
painted, ABS plastic body shroud that allows it to be easily wiped clean with a damp cloth.
CAUTION! Never use any chemicals to clean a vinyl seat, as they may cause the seat to become
slippery or dry out and crack. Use soapy water and dry the seat thoroughly.
