Please read these instructions before use
Do not use a walking frame to climb stairs or to travel on an escalator
Large Walking Frame
Set-up and OperatiOn
Unfolding / folding the walking frame Adjusting the height
Press in the brass locking button to
disengage, and turn the leg slightly so the
button is no longer aligned with the holes.
Move the leg up or down to your ideal height
setting, then turn the leg back to align the
locking button with the nearest hole. If
unable to achieve an exact height match,
make the walking frame slightly higher
rather than shorter to avoid stooping.
Each arm folds and locks
independently.
From a folded position,
unfold each arm outwards
until the lock clicks into
place. Check both sides of
the frame are firmly locked
into position before use.
To fold, press down firmly
on the tab at the side of
the cross bar to release the
lock, and fold the the side
of the frame inwards until it
rests flat against the frame.
Repeat for the other side.
Ideal height
To determine ideal height for
your walking frame, stand as
straight as possible (preferably
wearing an everyday pair of
shoes) and look straight ahead
with your arms relaxed at your
sides.
In this position, the top of
the handgrips should sit level
with your wrist bone when the
walking frame is placed in the
correct position around your
body. You can measure the
distance from your wrist bone to
the floor as a helpful reference
for height adjustment.
The locking button must be fully engaged and
protruding through the height adjustment hole
to ensure a positive lock. Always test that the
lock is fully engaged before use.
Using the walking frame
With both hands placed firmly around the
handgrips at the top of the walking frame,
slide the frame forwards to a comfortable
arm’s length ahead of you.
Alternatively, you can lift and place the frame to a
comfortable arm’s length ahead of you, making
sure the frame is resting stably on the ground.
Step in towards the frame, stepping off from
your weaker leg (if applicable). Do not step
all the way to the front of the walking frame;
smaller steps are recommended. Always take
small steps when turning.

Regular maintenance
Regularly check the walking frame for damage
and wear, paying special attention to the

stop using the walking frame immediately

Care & cleaning
To clean the walking frame, wipe with a mild
soap and warm water solution and rinse well.
