User Manual

Congratulations on your purchase of the KneeRover® GO
Knee Scooter!
The KneeRover® GO Knee Scooter provides a more reliable and comfortable
alternave to crutches for paents needing an eecve mobility soluon at
an aordable price.
Operang Instrucons:
This medical device is designed to maximize mobility during your recovery
from foot/ankle surgery or injury.
Place the knee of your injured leg on the knee plaorm and stand as straight
as possible. Adjust the handlebar to approximately waist high or the top of
your hips. This will allow you to nd the most comfortable posion for your
hands while holding the grips. Adjust the knee plaorm height so that your
injured leg is supported at a 90 degree angle when standing.
Ensure that the hand brake is fully engaged before mounng the KneeRover®
scooter. To move the scooter, simply push forward with your good foot. Allow
the scooter to glide, and as it slows down, push again.
We recommend operang the KneeRover® scooter at a safe walking
speed (< 3 mph).
Ongoing Maintenance:
With roune use, nuts and bolts on the KneeRover® knee walker can become
loose. To ensure safe operaon of your KneeRover® scooter, it is important to
periodically inspect for loose nuts and bolts and re-ghten as appropriate.

KneeRover® Knee Walker Safety Instrucons:
The following safety instrucons and warnings are provided to
educate the user on how to safely operate a knee walker. Knee
Walkers are mobility devices designed to provide increased
mobility during recovery from foot/ankle/lower leg surgery or
injury. This is a walking aid, not a recreaonal device. For the
user’s safety, it is important to follow these safety instrucons at
all mes.
Dealer: User manual and safety instrucons must be given to the
user.
User: BEFORE using the knee walker, you must read the user man-
ual and safety instrucons and save for future reference.
Cauon: DO NOT aempt to adjust or operate
the knee walker without carefully reading all secons
of the user manual and following safety instrucons.
If you do not understand the User Manual or the Warnings and
Cauons provided here, please contact us or your healthcare
professional for a complete explanaon before aempng to

WARNINGS:
BEFORE OPERATING KNEE WALKER:
DO NOT exceed the maximum weight capacity of 300 pounds for
this knee walker. Exceeding the maximum weight capacity may
result in injury to the user or damage to the knee walker.
Aer fully assembling the knee walker according to this user
manual, ensure that the brakes are working correctly, meaning
they engage the rear wheel(s) when the brake handle is squeezed.
Failure to do this may result in injury to the user.
Inspect the knee walker periodically to ensure the brakes and
wheels are funconing properly. Be sure steering column clamp
and height adjustment knob are ghtened and fully engaged be-
fore each use. Also, ensure that the knee plaorm height adjust-
ment clamp is ghtened and fully engaged and the locking pin is
locked in place prior to use.
Only use accessories and replacement parts authorized by the
KneeRover® brand. Accessories designed by other manufacturers
have not been tested by KneeRover® and are not recommended
for use with KneeRover® products.
As a reminder, this is a mobility / walking aid, not a recreaonal
device. For the user’s safety, it is important to follow these safety
instrucons at all mes.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPERATING KNEE WALKER:
As with any new physical acvity, pracce and common sense are
necessary for successful use of the knee walker. Before operang
the knee walker at normal walking speed, pracce maneuvering
and making turns at slow rates of speed to get familiar with the
knee walker and how to best maintain balance. Gradually
increase the me spent using the knee walker to allow muscles to
adjust to this new acvity. A users’s learning curve for use of the
knee walker depends on the individual’s level of acvity, balance,
and ability. Consult a healthcare professional for addional
guidance on height sengs and use of the knee walker for
maximum support and comfort during recovery.
The following warnings are intended to help the user
achieve the safest operaon of the knee walker during recovery.
Failure to read and comply may result in injury to user or
damage to the unit.
DO NOT operate the knee walker faster than a comfortable
walking speed (we recommend not more than 3 miles per hour).
Running with the knee walker or riding it fast down a hill is dan-
gerous as one can easily lose control of the knee walker and
serious injury could result.
Use extra cauon when turning the knee walker. Do not turn un-
less one foot is on the ground. Do not turn at speeds over 1 mph
(very slow walking speed). Never make a sharp turn at high speed
as this could result in a fall and serious injury.
DO NOT travel over loose gravel, large cracks, or other uneven
surfaces.

DO NOT operate on inclines above 15 degrees (slight incline). Use
Extreme Cauon when operang the knee walker on any slopes,
as there is risk of losing balance. It is best to avoid slopes. Only
mount or dismount your knee walker on a level surface.
DO NOT aempt to reach for objects while the knee walker is in
moon. Ensure that you have come to a complete stop with brake
fully engaged or locked, and have established good balance
before reaching for an object.
Be aware of your surroundings when operang the Knee Walker.
Stop and move forward slowly when encountering cracks or
separaons in walkway surfaces. Look for hazards on the ground
and avoid them to prevent falls. Use cauon when moving from
one surface to another, such as hard oors or carpet.
DO NOT use the knee walker on or near stairs, curbs, obstacles,
ect. Doing this increases risk of fall and/or injury.
DO NOT walk backwards while using the knee walker.
All wheels must be in contact with the oor at all mes while
moving on the knee walker to ensure proper balance. Always
keep both hands on the handlebar grips when in use.
