5. Swing the forearm supports to the side; the user must now grasp the handles WITHOUT support for the fore-
arms.
6. Lock at least two of the Walker’s castors (any two) and fold down the stirrup.
7. Perform the standing manoeuvre and check that the harness pulls evenly on both sides; if not, adjust immediate-
ly. During the standing manoeuvre one carer must stand in front of the user while applying their weight to the stirrup
and maintaining eye contact with the patient. The other carer may stand next to the patient.
8. In most cases the patient will not achieve a fully upright standing position; encourage the patient to achieve a
final upright posture independently or assist the patient by tightening the adjustable harness straps.
9. Lower the Walker to its individually adjusted height and swing the forearm supports back into position to provide
support for the user. If a platform is not being used, swing the shin supports away for increased walking room: refer
to page 5, Shin support adjustment. The harness may remain attached for enhanced safety, e.g. during transporta-
tion using the platform.
