Annual Product Inspection - Leckey Everyday Activity Benutzerhandbuch

13 Annual Product
Inspection
(Therapist, Technician, Leckey Product
Advisor, Dealer)
Leckey recommend that each product should
be subject to a detailed inspection at least
once a year and every time the product is
reissued for use. This inspection should
be carried out by a technically competent
person who has been trained in the use of
the product and should include the following
checks as a minimum requirement.
1. Check all ratchet handles, knobs, nuts,
bolts and plastic buckles are in place,
replacing any missing items. Paying
particular attention to the following items;
> Headsupport locking bolts.
> Backrest height and angle adjustments
bolts.
> Seat depth adjustment bolts.
> Pelvic harness / hip guide attachment
bolts.
> Footrest height and angle adjustment.
2. Check the chassis height adjustment
mechanism is working properly. If the
chassis is foot pedal operated ensure the
seat height doesn't change when the pedal
is released. Also, check that the locking
pin engages securely to prevent accidental
height adjustment of the chassis.
3. Adjust the seat to its maximum range of
tilt in space and ensure that the locking lever
locks the seat out securely at varying point in
this range.
4. Check that where the seat and chassis
join there is no visible wear and tear on the
metal components.
5. Lift the base to check each castor
individually. Make sure they are moving freely
and remove any dirt from the rubber wheels.
Check that the brakes lock the wheels
securely.
6. Visually check the structure of the product
paying attention to weld points on the frame
ensuring there are no signs of fatigue or
cracking around the welds.
7. Leckey recommend that a written record is
maintained of all annual product inspections.
If in any doubt to the continued safe use of
your Leckey product or if any parts should
fail, please cease using the product and
contact our customer service department or
your local dealer as soon as possible.
