Initial Adjustments:
Seat Height
Using the Height Adjust / Release Handle or the
Fine Adjustment Handle (fig. 9), adjust the seat
height to about equal with the inside leg
measurement.
To raise the seat
assembly with the Height Adjust /
Release Handle, press down on the top of the mast
while lifting up on the Height Adjust / Release Handle.
To raise the seat
using the Fine Adjustment,
place your hand in the handle and squeeze the
Lower Fine Tune handle (fig. 9). Each time you fully
activate the Fine Tune handle the seat will rise up
approximately 1/2 inch.
To lower the seat,
lift up on the T-handle to
release any weight from the seat assembly and
press slightly downward on the Height Adjust/
Release Handle (fig. 9). Only minimal pressure is
needed to lower the seat down the mast.
Do not
push too hard.
Releasing the Height Adjust/
Release Handle will stop the seat from lowering.
For safety reasons,
KidWalk
seat height
cannot be lowered while there is weight on
the seat.
Other Items:
Make sure that all of the Support pads are high enough
and opened wide enough to allow the client to initially
