User Manual

Congratulations on your purchase of the KneeRover®
Knee Scooter!
The KneeRover® 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.
