About Your Lite Gait®
NOTE: Your Lite Gait® may look different than image above
Lite Gait® is comprised of several parts.
YOKE : Y-shaped support that has four female buck-
les at the ends and is attached to the actuator with a
flat plate secured by four bolts.
OVERHEAD STRAPS : Four 44” long adjustable straps
with male connectors at one end and padded female
buckles at the opposite end. The male connectors
attach to the yoke buckles and the female buckles
attach to the harness providing postural support for
the patient.
HARNESS/GROIN PIECE : Adjustable wrap with a
buckle closure in the front and three adjustable
straps on each side. The four male connectors at the
top of the harness that attach into the female buck-
les of the overhead straps. The four female buckles
at the bottom of the harness allow for the connec-
tion of the groin piece. The H-shaped stitching on
the groin piece denotes the top (or body side) of the
piece.
ACTUATOR : The mechanism that raises and lowers
the yoke. The actuator consists of a concentric ex-
panding and retracting square tower that houses the
DC motors, gearing and the screw mechanism. It
also provides the structural base to which the adjust-
able handlebars are attached.
CONTROL UNIT : Junction box mounted in the base
for the battery power, handheld switch and contains
electrical safety protection circuitry. The battery pack
connects to this unit and is also located within a
compartment of the actuator.
HANDLEBARS : Unit has two adjustable handlebars.
The handle bars are attached to the unit using two
knobs.
BASE : Two horizontal bars connected by two U-
shaped tubes. The base moves freely over ground or
can be locked into place during use over a treadmill.
However, your unit must be locked into place at all
other times.
CASTERS : Four casters are attached to the base. The
two casters on the left side are total locking and the
two casters on the right are directional locking. Be
certain to lock both caster brakes when using the
unit over a treadmill or when connecting the patient
to the unit.
BISYM (Optional) : Provides a display of the pounds/
kilograms of support provided by each arm of the
yoke. The load cells that are installed in the yoke
sense the load on the yoke and feed it to the BiSym
Scale for processing and display.
NOTE: Over tightening the knobs may cause damage.
WARNING: NEVER leave patient unattended in the unit.
