3. Standing Up Using the Bure Rise & Go
Because standing up or transporting patients always entails risks we recommend that two people are always
present to assist the user at such times.
1. Fit the harness as low as possible across the hips and bottom with the broad upper part around the hips and the
narrow lower part around the bottom. Attach the strap with the Velcro fastener and tighten it using the steplessly
adjustable safety belt. Note that the lower part of the harness attached around the patient's bottom can be opened
as required, e.g. for visits to the WC.
2. Place the user's legs at a 90˚ angle with their feet on the floor or platform. Adjust the shin supports to fit the
user's shins; remember to avoid pressure on the patellae and patellar tendons. Refer to page 5 for shin support
adjustment.
3. Thread both attachment belts through the Walker's frame and the green locking devices. Make sure the belts
are threaded completely through the locking devices. NB: Check especially that the belts are undamaged. Check
that belts are not worn or frayed and that the holder and straps are NOT bent or crooked. If the holder and belts
are crooked (pic 3c-red line) it is a sign that the product has been overloaded, in which case the frame must be
replaced before further use.
4. Connect the power rise harness and attachment belts (that are secured to the Walker) and tighten them using
the loops; the belts must be taught on both sides. (see fig. 4a)
Note: Slide the loop back once the straps have been tightened – this prevents tangling (see fig. 4b).
