5. AT51111 Setup
We recommend you setup the wheeled walker together with your
specialized dealer. With enough manual skills, you can also complete
this by yourself.
Be aware of the increased risk of entrapment during
setup of the wheeled walker.
Handle Height
You can fit the height of the handle to your body size. This does not
require any tools.
A red latch (Figure 3) is found
beneath every handle. Push the
latch in and keep it pressed. Now
you can raise or lower this handle.
Let go of the button. Pull or push
yet again until you hear and notice
that the handle clicks into place
and can no longer be adjusted.
Repeat the process on the other
side until both handles are set to
the same height. Figure 3
Pouch
The wheeled walker is delivered
with an assembled pouch. The
pouch can simply be taken off or
hung above the hanger (Figure 4).

Brakes
Setup of the brakes should be completed by a trained
specialist. However, if you have sufficient experience, you
can complete this job by yourself. Keep in mind though
that incorrectly installed brakes can have life-threatening
consequences.
Increase/lessen brake effect
1. Loosen Allen screw (Figure 5, arrow
1).
2. Retighten or untighten Bowden
cable by pulling out or pushing in
(Figure 5, arrow 2).
3. Refasten Allen screw.
4. Small adjustments:
Loosen counter nut (Figure 6, arrow
1) so that the setup screw (Figure 6,
arrow 2) can be turned.
Turn the setup screw clockwise:
brake effect lessens. Turn the setup
screw counterclockwise: brake
effect increases.
Finally, retighten the counter nut.
Complete this step again with the other
brake.
Adjust the brakes so that when moving it
does not rub and it is easy to operate. With
actuator brakes, you are not able to move the
walker.

6. USE OF AT51111
Be aware of risk of entrapment, especially
during opening and folding up as well as when
preparing to transport
Opening and Folding Up
The wheeled walker can be stored in a folded up position for space
savings.
In order to be able to use it, open it up by pushing on the seat from the

Transporting and Storage
In order to be able to transport and store the
wheeled walker for space savings, it is
possible to pivot the front wheels up and take
off the mounting bracket of the rear wheels
(Figure 9).
Figure 9
Front Wheels
Press the red latch (Figure 10) in order to
loosen the lock on the front wheels. Then
pull the front wheels forward and turn 180°
upwards.
In order to use the wheeled walker again,
pull the front wheel forwards and pivot it
downwards.
It audibly clicks in place; control the fixed
seat.
Figure 10

Next, fold down the lever (Figure 11).
Finally, press the push-button and pull out
the rear wheel assembly downwards. Be
aware that the rear wheel is still always
connected to the wheeled walker by the

Running with the Wheeled Walker
First test the use of the wheeled walker on a level, dry surface. Allow
yourself to be accompanied by another person if possible. Practice
after the first attempt –if you feel safe –using it on sloped surfaces.
Pay attention when going with the wheeled walker to remain
close to the sliding handles. Only in doing so, can the
wheeled walker effectively reduce the risk of falling. Eliminate
a slouched back.
You determine the speed and direction by pushing the wheeled walker.
Use both brakes in order to slow down your speed. Pay attention when
braking to always engage both brakes. The wheeled walker will
otherwise turn with the unbraked wheel and you can fall.
Attempt to go around obstacles in your path. With steps, look for a
ramp; with stairs, take the elevator. If this is not possible, the wheeled
walker has to be carried over the obstacle. When possible, try to find
another person to help you.
Tilting Aid
Your wheeled walker is equipped with two tilting
aids (Figure 12), which should ease getting over
curbs for you. As you step on the tilting aid with
your foot and pull back the on the handles at the
same time, raise the front wheels. In this
manner, you can get over curbs and other small
obstacles with little effort.
Please pay attention when doing so for a fixed
condition.
Figure 12

Brakes and Parking Brake
Your wheeled walker is equipped with a
charged operating brake and with a parking
brake to prevent accidental rolling away.
In order to easily and safely bring the
wheeled walker to a stop, pull both brake
handles upwards (Figure 13).
The brake effect depends on how hard the
brakes are pressed. Use the parking brake by
pushing the brake handles downwards until
they lock into place with an audible click.
(Figure 14).
To loosen the parking brake, pull the brake
handles back up. (Figure 15).
Wheeled Walker as a Seat
Your wheeled walked is equipped with a
sitting surface and a seat back. Before
sitting, you absolutely must put on the
parking brake. The wheeled walker can
otherwise roll away and you could fall. Do
not use any additional seat cushions; it
could slip and you could fall.
