Adjustment of Armrests
The armrests can be adjusted sideways for optimal support; loosen screw, adjust
armrest, tighten screw.
NOTE: The rear attachments on the frame/armrest are interchangeable (left with right and
vice versa) to provide different widths. The locating pins on the cushion’s underside/rear
can also be moved. These adjustment capabilities make customisation possible.
Using the Parking Brakes on Castor Wheels :
When parking the device, activate the parking brake on the lockable castor wheels.

brake, press the green protruding part with your foot. The caregiver should assist the
patient in activating the parking brake in case the patient cannot activate them him or
herself.
Using Hand Brakes:

brakes, the walker will turn to that side. When the lever is released, the braking will stop.
Do not use the brakes continuously while the walker is in motion.
Parking brakes: Push the brake levers forwards from you to activate the parking brakes.
Be aware that the lever has some resistance before it stops and locks the rear wheel. Pull
the brake levers back towards you to release the parking brakes.
