SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Failure to follow the safety precautions may result in the risk of serious injury.
Do not exceed the maximum weight limit of 136 Kg.
Do not exceed the maximum load limit in the basket (5kg). Loads must only be carried in the basket. Do not
attach heavy objects to the rollator as this could affect its stability.
Make sure that all parts are securely fastened and in good working order.
Check the rollator's screws and fastenings regularly and retighten if necessary.
Make sure the handles are securely locked.
Make sure the rollator is fully open and the seat is securely fastened.
Make sure both handles are tight and at the same height.
Test the stability of the rollator before applying the full weight to the handles.
Do not use the seat when the rollator is on sloping or uneven ground. Only use the rollator on flat, solid
surfaces.
Replace the wheels if they are badly worn or damaged.
DO NOT MOVE THE ROLLATOR WHEN SEATED. It is only a walking aid and must not be used as a transport
device.
Test the brakes before using the Rollator.
When the locks are released, the wheels must be able to turn freely.
Beware of the risk of pinching when folding.
Do not use the rollator on stairs or escalators.
Only use the accessories and parts supplied by the manufacturer.
Do not make any adjustments to the rollator while it is in use.
All wheels must always be in contact with the ground.
Take care when climbing kerbs or using sloping, uneven or slippery surfaces. Failure to do so may result in a
serious risk of falling or injury.
Do not use the walker on wet, icy or snowy slopes.
If any parts are damaged, broken or worn, contact your dealer.
USE
1. Unfolding and preparing the rollator:
•
Unfolding: If the rollator is folded, unfold it by gently pulling the two parts apart until it locks into the open
position.
•
Stability check: Ensure the rollator is stable and that the wheels are securely attached.
•
Adjusting the height: Adjust the height of the handles so they align with your wrists when your arms are slightly
bent (about 15°). This helps maintain a comfortable posture.
2. Understanding the pressure brakes:
•
Brake activation: The pressure brakes activate automatically when you push down on the handles. The harder
you press, the stronger the braking.
•
Release the pressure: Release the pressure to allow the rollator to move again.
3. Using the rollator for walking:
•
Move forward slowly: Place the rollator in front of you and walk slowly, lightly leaning on the handles if needed.
•
Stability: Always keep the rollator at a comfortable distance (neither too far nor too close) to avoid losing
balance.
•
Direction: Use the handles to steer the rollator, thanks to its six wheels that make maneuvering easier.
4. Using the seated position:
•
Secure braking: Before sitting on the integrated seat, ensure the brakes are fully engaged by applying sufficient
pressure on the handles.
•
Sit down gently: Position yourself with your back to the seat and sit down slowly, ensuring the rollator is stable.
Lock all fasteners before each use.
