Intended use
Risk of falling
The rollator is meant as support of the leg function during walking. Do not use the rollator if
you have other physical limitations that may cause unsafe use of your rollator, like a weak
arm, balance disorders, ...
The rollator is designed and produced solely to be used as walking aid for one person with
a maximum weight of 120 kg. The rollator will compensate the lack of adequate support by
the legs by leaning on, or moving with, the rollator with usage of the upper limbs or chest.
The rollator will provide better stability, support and safety during walking. The rollator
can be used indoors and outdoors. It is not intended for transport of goods and/or more
people than the user.
It should only be used on surfaces where all wheels and legs are touching the ground. Do
not use the rollator on rocky, bumpy or sandy terrain, or places with a steep inclination.
The rollator may become unstable. Look for flat, stable areas to walk with your rollator.
The warranty on this product is based on normal use and maintenance as described in
