Please read these instructions before use
Do not use a walking frame to climb stairs or to travel on an escalator
Small 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.
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 firmly on the
single button located in the
centre of the cross bar to
release the locks.
Then fold each side of the
frame inwards until they rest
flat against the frame.
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, lift
and place the frame to a comfortable arm’s
length ahead of you, making sure the frame is
stable 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
condition of the rubber tips. Replace the
rubber tips immediately if you see evidence
of rips, tears, cracks or other general wear.
If the walking frame is damaged in any way,
stop using the walking frame immediately
and contact your authorised dealer or the
manufacturer.
Care & cleaning
To clean the walking frame, wipe with a mild
soap and warm water solution and rinse well.
Dry thoroughly with a clean cloth.
Avoid harsh, abrasive cleaning agents or
utensils (such as a wire brush) as these may

rubber components.
