OPERATING POSITION
Press the rollator downwards to the safety latch,
positioned to the right underneath the seat, lock.
NB! Always check that the safety latch is in locked
position.
FOLDING

2. Lift the cross tube under the seat upwards.
NB! Be careful of the risk of catching fingers between
the rear and front frame.
BRAKES
Apply the brakes by pulling both brake handles
upwards.
PARKING BRAKE
Press the brake handles carefully downwards to
apply the parking brakes.
A distinct click indicates that the brake is in the
correct position. It is important that both the
brakes are put into parking position when they
are to be used.
To release the parking brake, pull the brake handle
upwards.
ADJUSTMENT OF
BRAKING EFFECT
Two setting screws, one in the brake lever and
one in the middle of the brake cable adjusts the
tension of the brake and the application of the
brake to the user’s capability. The braking power
increases and the movement required in the
brake lever is reduced when the setting screws
are loosened.
NB! Check the braking effect after height adjust-
ment.
NB! Make sure to tighten the lock nuts after
adjustment.
HANDLEBARS
NB! The handlebars must point directly back-
wards when using the rollator. Under no circum-
stances should they be angled outwards.
For height adjustment of the handles:
Undo the locking levers and adjust the handles
to a suitable height. NB! The handles must never
be set above their highest position, indicated by
knurling on the tubes.
- Tighten the locking levers which should then
be adjusted so that they point down-wards.
(The locking levers can be freely turned by first
pulling them outwards). Check that the handles
are set at the same height. The handles should
normally be positioned at wrist height.
ACCESSORIES
A) Installing the basket
B) Installing the tray using plastic pins.
ASSEMBLING
Before the rollator is assembled remove the plastic
crossbar between the rear wheels and any plastic caps
in the side tubes.
1. Open the rollator into operating position
(see below).
2. Install the locking lever with the bolt. The
locking lever with the washer shall be
installed on the outside.
Ensure that the head of the bolt slots into
the recess on the fitting.
3. Insert the handle tubes into the side
uprights and tighten the locking levers.
These must be pointing downwards
during use. See the HANDLEBARS
section on page 3.
SAFETY
- Not to be used for standing on or as a
wheelchair.
- Never sit on the rollator and kick yourself
forward by foot.
- Both brakes must be in the parking position
when the rollator is used as a seat.
- The parking brakes must be in braked posi-
tion when the rollator is used as a support
when getting up, from a chair for example.
- The rollator must be fully unfolded and locked
when used as a walking support. NB! Only to
be used as a walking support.
- Exercise caution when walking on sloping
ground.
- Do not go up or down stairs with the rollator.
- Do not use the rollator on escalators.
- Exercise caution when there is a heavy load

- Loads should be transported solely on the
integral shelf, in the basket or on the tray.

basket 9 kg and on the tray 5 kg.
- The handlebar must not be angled outwards
as this reduces the rollator’s lateral stability.
