tor. There are no exposed brake cables, and the patented system is both safer
and requires less maintenance than other solutions.

Only a light pull is required, and the brakes can easily be modulated with vary-
ing resistance.
Tolockthebrakes(andtoactivatetheparkingbrakes),simplypushthebrake
lever down until it locks.
To unlock the brakes, pull up on the brake lever, and it will snap back to the
neutral position.
Brake maintenance.
Adjustment of the brakes should be checked before
using the Active rollator. Periodic checks should be
made on the brake functions to keep them in optimal
working condition due to normal wear on brake and
tyre parts during usage.
