The Expected Lifetime is the estimated period of time for which the tri-walker is expected to function according to its intended use.
Various items such as weight capacity, user behaviour, external conditions and intensity of use can affect the expected lifetime.
Weight Capacity:
If the user exceeds the weight limit specified, it may affect the tri-walker
expected lifetime.
User Behaviour:
Using excessive force, rough handling or dropping the product significantly
shorten the tri-walker’s expected lifetime.
External Conditions:
Extreme temperatures, humidity and exposure to harsh weather conditions can
accelerate the deterioration of the tri-walker.
Usage:
A tri-walker that is used daily may experience more wear and tear compared to
a tri-walker that is used occasionally.
The expected lifetime for the tri-walker is 15 years providing the instructions and information within this user manual are followed.
Regular cleaning, lubrication of moving parts, and tightening of loose fixings will prevent premature wear and damage and extend the product’s lifetime.
