10. SERVICE & MAINTENANCE
To prolong the working life of the commode and for trouble free operation it is
recommended that routine inspections should be performed by a person who is
suitably qualified and well acquainted with the design, use and care of Aspire Mobile
Shower Commodes.
If inspection reveals that the safety of the commode is compromised in any way, it
should be IMMEDIATELY WITHDRAWN FROM SERVICE, tagged as such and the
owner notified, until repair or replacement has occurred.
Inspection:
A visual and functional inspection should be performed monthly and every time the
commode changes user.
• Visually inspect mechanical components: Can you see damage, chips or
deformation to the frame, armrests, seat, backrest, legrests or commode bowl?
• Are the castors, wheels and brakes functioning as they should?
• Are all frame securement hand wheels present and tightened?
