Lubrication
Using wax, synthetic, or Teon lubricants (not non-synthetic oil such as WD-40 or Tri-Flo), follow
these guidelines to lubricate the lever drive:
Brake Lever
Put one drop of oil on the pivot point of the brake lever
Brake & Shift
Cables
Put four drops of oil onto both ends of each cable. Allow oil to soak
back along the line
Axles
Put one drop of oil on the axle and wipe across the surface
Important Note: The Pivot
TM
is designed to require minimal maintenance. Lubrication of
parts other than those indicated above can cause damage and void the warranty.

Follow the recommendations in your wheelchair manual regarding the Tires, Wheel Spokes, and
Pushrims.

The brake pads have been designed for very long life. If they need to be replaced, please contact

Cleaning
Clean the lever drive with a damp cloth. Do not soak or spray with water or use detergent. Lubricate
as necessary after cleaning.

Storage
Your Pivot
TM
should be stored in a cool and dry location to maintain lubrication and prevent
corrosion.
You may want to retain the box that your Pivot

storage of your lever drive, your lever drive accessories, the included tools, and the manual. It can
also be used for shipment to the factory in case of maintenance and warranty repairs.
