I Have My Power Wheelchair Back From Maintenance
[ Friday December 1st 2023 at 12:48 pm ]

I now have my power wheelchair back from maintenance. The 6 tires, their bearings and the batteries have been changed. A friend drove me home when I dropped off my power wheelchair yesterday. Another friend brought me here this afternoon to retrieve it. My power wheelchair looks good.

The stem bearings allow me to drive around corners. Typically at least one of the stem bearings settle as I take my first long drive. There may need to be an adjustment made next week. This is routine. I am satisfied.

The parts replaced were the are the original batteries and wheels. They have lasted about 6 years. I'm happy with how these components have stood up to being used. The cost of these repairs is covered by my disability pension. I should be good for a while.
