That's the million dollar question. (Don't tip a million dollars! ) I've never tipped them, though it is expected.

Hmm, how will I know if it's yours? I assume tho, there'll be an attendant looking for me specifically, right? I'd certainly ask first and of course notice if anyone else got on the flight with me in a wheelchair, too!
Usually an attendant will be there. If one isn't, don't take the wheelchair sitting in the jetway.
