Using Safety Straps
The PneuWalker™ comes with a safety feature that
will limit the amount of drop should a patient loose
their balance and fall. The nylon safety straps can be
adjusted to limit the distance (from 1 to 6 inches) a
patient can fall.
To set the distance make sure the strap is connected
to the cylinder via the carabineer. Open the cam
buckle and set the strap to the desired number in
inches. Securely close
the cam buckle.
Take care to make sure
that both straps are set
to the same distance.
