SAFETY ADVICE
This rollator is designed to be used as a mobility aid, creating a natural gate

 Read this manual carefully before using your rollator
 Always ensure the brakes are in the locked position if the rollator is left
unattended
 Check all castors and wheels are secure before use
 Check the brakes are functioning properly
 Check handle height adjustment hand knobs are secure before use
 Check the rollator is fully unfolded
 Take care when carrying the rollator when folded. Keep your hands
away from the folding mechanism to prevent any risk of pinching.
DO NOT:
 Use the rollator as an aid to transport persons, it is not designed as a
wheelchair
 Sit on the rollator if the brakes are not locked, this could cause the
rollator to move resulting in injury to the user or other persons

locking nut clockwise whilst
holding the adjuster screw
stationary.
Models 2320, 2340, 2462 & 2463

tension in the cable then
lock the adjustment by
turning the locking nut
clockwise whilst holding
the adjuster screw
stationary.

Continued…..

coin can be used as
shown in the image).
Model 2330
Rollator model 2330 uses a push down
type brake where the user physically
pushes down the rear of the frame to stop
the rollator.
The force required to push down the rear
frame can be adjusted by the brake
tension adjuster as shown opposite.
Turning this clockwise will increase the
force required, turning anti-clockwise will
decrease the force required.
Model 2467
This model also has further
adjustment at the brake as
shown opposite. Turn the
adjuster screw anti-
clockwise to increase the
tension in the cable then
lock the adjustment by
turning the locking nut

the adjuster screw
staionary.
Brake adjustment reduced to allow light pressure may be ineffective on the
brake in the locked position.

MAINTENANCE
Over a period of time the brake cables may stretch, and if no further
adjustments can be made the cables should be replaced. Seek the help of
your dealer when replacing brake cables.
The castors should be checked that they are secure each time before using
the rollator. Also, check the brakes operate correctly and the handles and
hand knobs are secure.
All visible nuts, bolts and screws should be regularly checked to ensure
tightness.
Should any part of the rollator appear loose or insecure discontinue use
until it is inspected by an authorised dealer.
CLEANING
Your rollator can be cleaned with a damp cloth or sponge and warm soapy
water. Domestic anti-bacterial surface cleaners may be used if required.
Care should be taken not to leave any cleaning residues on the handgrips
or seat (where fitted) which may leave them slippery when used.
Do not use scouring pads or scrapers as this may damage surface
coatings.
