5.2 Attaching the Handles
Insert the handles and line up the holes.
Note: The handle height must be set up correctly for
the user height. Refer to Section 5.5.
Insert 1 x bolt, making sure the bolt head slots into the
hexagonal recess.

of the rollator frame.

height. This will ensure the arms are at an approximate

Check that the holes in the handle bars and the frame
are aligned.
Place the supplied bolt through the aligned holes in
the handlebar and frame. The holes in the frame are
hexagonal in shape to accommodate the head of the
bolt.

the hand-wheel. Hand-tighten firmly, but do not over
tighten.
