BRAKE
Apply the brakes by pulling both brake hand-
les upwards.
PARKING BRAKE
1. Press the brake handles carefully donwards
to apply the parking brakes. A clear sound
is heard when the brakes are applied
correctly. It is important that both parking-
brakes are applied.
2. Release the parking brakes by pulling the
handles upwards.
For users who feel that the walker rolls
too quickly and who therefore make fre-
quent use of the brake, we recommend a
walker with a slow-down brake (accessory).
ADJUSTING THE
HANDLEBARS
NB! The brake must not be in the on position
when adjusting the handle.
1. Loosen the height adjustment knobs, but
do not remove them completely.
2. Adjust the handlebars to the correct
height. The handlebars should normally
be placed at the height of the user's wrists.
3. The handles can be adjusted such that
they point inwards in order to provide a
more comfortable hand position. This may
also be required if the user has limited
wrist mobility.
4. Tighten the height adjustment knobs.
If there is a risk of the user removing the
height adjustment knobs, these should be
replaced by locking screws (available as an
accessory).
