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.
