stability. This locking supports the user in learning to
walk in a straight line. Locking both rear wheels pre-
vents sideways slipping when walking, while the front
wheels are still steerable. To lock the wheels, the lock-
ing lever (E) must be pushed into the hole (F) of the
wheel (photo. 4).
2. Each wheel can be adjusted such that it rolls in only
one direction. This is useful for users who have diffi -
culties walking and involuntarily roll backwards. To
do this, push the pin (G) downwards until it clicks into
place. When rolling forward, the wheel makes a click-
ing sound (photo. 5).

can be adjusted in increments or it can be completely

the greater the rolling resistance. Press the pedal all
