black Release Knob once the Steering Column is in its lowered position to prevent it from moving.  Make 
sure the teeth on the Folding Mechanism line up and are interlocked (See Figure 7B). 

 

Operation

 

Before use, double check the Knee Rest Pad is at the correct height for the User.  The User’s hips should be even to 

ensure proper weight distribution on unit.  The T-Shaped Handle Bar should be set 

at the User’s natural waist height.  

The User should not be leaning or hunched over when gripping the handle bar.  The User is to be in their natural upright 
position, just as if they were standing on their own two feet. 
 
When mounting the StrideOn, always engage the Parking Brakes and rest the knee of the injured leg on the Knee Pad, 
hold  onto  both  handles  of  the  Steering  Column.    Release  the  Parking  Brakes  and  use  the  uninjured  leg  to  propel 
yourself forward in a scooter motion.  Propel yourself at a controlled walking pace.  
 
Be aware of surroundings.  Always slow down when steering around corners or obstacles and always use the brakes to 
help  slow  the  unit  down.    Be  careful  when  traveling  over  uneven  terrain,  gradients  and  thresholds.     Use  the  brakes 
when  needed,  and  remember,  the  StrideOn  brakes  are  there  to  help  slow  the  unit  down,  they  are  not  intended  to 
completely stop the unit. 
 
The StrideOn is a medical device, not a toy or a recreational scooter.  Using the StrideOn in any manner other than as 
described in this user guide is forbidden.  The StrideOn is an alternative to the use of crutches for lower leg injuries. 

Before each use make sure all the necessary parts for the StrideOn have been correctly put together and all adjustment 
knobs are tightened in the correct way as per these instructions.  

Please note StrideOn Australia Pty Ltd or any employee of StrideOn Australia Pty Ltd are not qualified to advise you on 
whether you are suitable to use the StrideOn or if it is fit for your purpose or condition. You should consult with your 
Doctor/Medical practitioner if you have any concerns whatsoever, before using the StrideOn.
