Today, in this article, we have discussed some top tips to care for your Mobility Scooter in the winter. So, without wasting much time, let’s get started:
The topics covered in this article are as follow:
- Do not leave your scooter outdoors.
- Remember to charge your batteries.
- Maintain the tires.
- If you’re leaving the scooter in a chilly spot.
Let us discuss the points in detail:
Do Not Leave Your Scooter Outdoors: the cold weather affects both, the engine of the system as well as the body structure of the mobility scooter. To avoid such instances, you should store it in dry places such as a shed, a garage, or even your home’s basement.
Remember to Charge Your Batteries: we charge the batteries almost every night in warmer seasons, but in winter, we need to charge the batteries overnight every two weeks. By doing so, you are preventing the batteries from the parasitic drain.
Maintain the Tires: before storing the scooters in a safe place/ indoors, take care of the thing that your tires are air-filled and are fully inflated so that they remain suitable for the duration of the season. You should always avoid storing deflated tires because they are more likely to crack in the winter season.
If you’re Leaving the Scooter in a Chilly Spot: sometimes, you are left with no any other choice to keep your scooters standing on a specific place/ or storing them at a colder spot. If you are in such a situation, what you can do best is to cover the battery with a heavy blanket. Doing so will prevent the battery from freezing and thus would long last!
