Visually check for damage to the paintwork (risk 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 pneumatic tyres), floating axles, etc.)
•
Check the solidity and seating of all screws
•
Verify the amount of grease on the metal joints of moveable parts

Visually check all plastic parts for tears and brittle spots
•
Check the functioning of the armrests and leg supports (locking, loading, deformation, wear and
tear due to loading, adjustment levers)

Check the functioning of the gas pressure springs and rope pulls (kinks, foreign bodies), levers
and adjusting screws. If necessary, adjust the rope pulls using the adjusting screws.
