Configuração e instalação
The ALCO Heavy Duty Wheelchair Arm Pads are designed for straightforward installation. Ensure you have the correct tools, typically a screwdriver, before beginning.
- Preparação: Remove the existing arm pads from your wheelchair. Keep the old screws if they are in good condition and compatible, or use the new screws provided.
- Hole Alignment: Position the new ALCO arm pad on the armrest frame. The arm pads feature two sets of pre-drilled holes to accommodate different wheelchair models. These hole spacings are approximately 5-1/2 inches (13.97 cm) or 3-5/16 inches (8.41 cm) center-to-center. Select the set of holes that aligns with your wheelchair's armrest frame.
- Anexo seguro: Insert the screws through the aligned holes in the arm pad and into the armrest frame. Tighten the screws securely but do not overtighten, as this may damage the arm pad or the wheelchair frame.
- Repeat for Second Pad: Follow the same steps to install the second arm pad on the opposite side of the wheelchair.
- Verificação final: Gently test the stability of both arm pads to ensure they are firmly attached before using the wheelchair.

Manutenção e Cuidados
- Limpeza: To clean the arm pads, wipe them with a damp cloth using mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the surface.
