Check that the emergency brake is working before use
With a sudden movement, press the handlebars vertically downwards. The emergency brake on
CrossWALKER has now been locked, and the red STOP colour is clearly visible. The emergency brake can
be released again, by pressing the two brake releases found at the foot of the handlebars, towards the
handlebars. See fig. 3. When both brake releases are pressed into place, CrossWALKER is no longer locked
and is now ready for use.
It is important that only the wheels are in direct contact with sand, gravel and pebbles.
CrossWALKER must not be used during extreme weather conditions with temperatures of severe heat or
severe cold.
Range of application
CrossWALKER is designed and approved for indoor and outdoor use on an even and safe base.
Adjustments before use
CrossWALKER cannot be adjusted vertically or horizontally. However, CrossWALKER can be ordered to
come with handlebars in different lengths, depending on the height of the user. CrossWALKER is also
available in a version which requires additional force, in relation to releasing the handlebar emergency
brake. As per agreement, CrossWALKER also comes with special ergonomic handles.
Before use
It may take some time to get used to and find your own walking pace with CrossWALKER - this is perfectly
normal. Therefore, you should plan a slow start up.
In connection with rehabilitation, users should receive guidance from healthcare workers.
Timed intervals of CrossWALKER use must be adjusted to the general physical and mental ability of the
user.
For cardiac and venous insufficiency, users must seek medical advice before using CrossWALKER.
In the event of spontaneous discomfort, stop using CrossWALKER immediately.
Walking with CrossWALKER
The use of CrossWALKER is always done at one’s own risk.
1.
ALWAYS walk with both legs and body positioned in the middle of the rear wheels.
2.
Press the two brake releases until the red STOP colour is no longer visible. Press with the FLAT OF
YOUR HAND, in order to avoid getting your fingers caught, when the emergency brake is released.
See fig. 3.
3.
Take a light and coordinated hold of the right handlebar with your right hand and place your left
hand on the left handlebar in a similar fashion.
