The wheels
Your rollator has front and rear wheels. These need to be checked regularly for wear
and damage.
The front castors of the OasisSpace rollator are 8’’ in diameter and attached to the
frame by means of a front fork. The front wheels are important for steering the
rollator. When steering does not go smoothly or the front wheels are shaking,
then the front wheels are not adjusted or fitted properly.

The rear wheels of the OasisSpace rollator are 8’’ in diameter and attached to the
frame of the rollator. The rear wheels play an important role in the stability of the
rollator. Furthermore, the brakes of the rollator are fitted to the rear wheels. When
squeezing the brake lever, the rear wheels will stop rotating and the whole rollator
will stop moving.

Adjusting the height of the front and rear wheels
Both the front and rear wheels of the heavy duty rollator can be adjusted in height.
To adjust the height of the rear wheels, follow the steps below:
1) On the rear of the frame, you will find the adjustment button for the height of
the rear wheels. The rear wheels can be adjusted to five different positions;
2) By pressing the silver button (see photo 23) while at the same time pulling on
the part of the frame where the rear wheel is attached, you can change the height
of the rear wheel. Make sure that the rear wheel tube clicks into place after
changing its position to one of the other height options;
3)
To lock the rear wheel into the chosen position, let go of the silver button.
The mechanism will now click into the newly chosen position and will be firmly
attached at the chosen height.
