PRODUCT USE
The Neo Fold Evolution Rollators are walking aids for people with reduced
mobility. These products are intended for use indoors and outdoors and
can be folded up for easy storage or transport.
DESCRIPTION
•
All wheels must always be in contact with the ground.
•
Check that the brakes function properly before use.
•
Make sure that the parking brakes are securely attached.
•
When the rollator is in the stationary position, the brakes must be
locked. Do not attempt to move the rollator if the brakes are locked.
•
Be sure to put your hands on each handle so that the rollator can be
in the parallel force position. Make sure the seat is clipped flat before
use.
•
Make sure the seat tube caps are present.
•
During use, lock the parking brakes for all actions.
•
Do not attempt to push the rollator while someone is sitting in the

•
Do not use the seat without the backrest.
•
Do not sit in the seat when the rollator is on a slope.
•
The brakes must be in the locked position before sitting in the seat.
•
Do not attempt to reach objects while sitting down by leaning forward.
Do not lean backwards as this can cause the rollator to tip over.

Be careful when walking up pavements or on inclined, uneven, or

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 of 5 kg in the basket. Loads must
only be transported in the basket. Do not hang heavy objects on the
rollator as this could affect its stability.
•
Do not use the rollator on stairs or escalators.
•
Use only accessories and parts supplied by the manufacturer.
•
Make sure that the knobs are tightened to the same level and the
handles are securely fastened.
•
The rollator is a walking aid. It is not a wheelchair. It is not designed to
carry a person sitting on it. Such use may damage the wheels and the
structure of the rollator itself. The rollator could be weakened and no
longer meet its mechanical characteristics in future use. Only use the
rollator as a walking support.
•
Do not use the rollator to walk backwards.
•
Always sit on the seat when the rollator is stationary and the brakes
are locked. Serious injury to the user and/or damage to the rollator
frame and/or wheels can result from inappropriate use.
•
Make sure all parts (wheels, cables, handles, brakes) are secure and
in good working order.
•
Do not make any adjustments to the rollator while it is in use.
Unfolding the rollator
Carefully check all parts before installing the product.
Do not assemble if any of the parts are damaged.
Do not assemble if any of the items in the contents list are missing.
When unpacking, make sure that the brake handles and cables are not
twisted as this may affect the operation of the brakes.
Place the rollator on a flat floor and unfold it by lifting the handles
upwards.
Step 1 :
The oval plastic main support and
the frame tube must be fully assembled
without leaving any gaps when locking
the levers. Do not press the levers too
hard as this may damage the product.
Step 2
: Tilt the locking lever towards
the front of the rollator (see opposite). If
resistance is felt during this operation,
check that the handle adjustment tube is
positioned vertically and that the folding
base is correctly positioned on the rollator
frame.
