Unfolding / Folding
Unfolding:
Loosen the strap between
the forearm supports (A) (not applicable
for the walker in size X). Release the lock
clamp positioned at the seat bars (B).
Press the seat bars down and outwards
(C). The side frames will slide apart. Press
down the seat bars. You will hear a clicking
sound. The walker is now locked in its
open position. Fasten the strap (A).
Folding:
Loosen the strap between the
forearm supports (A). Pull the strap on the
seat (D) and press the side frames togeth-
er. Lock the clamp (E) over the seat bars.
Carrying the walker:

be carried by the seat strap or the brake
wires. Fold the walker together as shown
on the illustration (F). Carry the walker by
the seat bars when the walker is folded (G).

Forearm supports / Handles
/ Memory function
Height adjusting:
Unscrew the lock
wheel (A) (approx. 2 turns). Adjust the
forearm support tubes to a suitable
height then pull them slightly up and
down (C) until you hear a clicking
sound. Tighten the lock wheel (A) again.
Adjust both tubes to the same height.
Recommended height:
Stand between
the rear wheels. Relax your shoulders and
hold your elbows in a 90-degree angle.
The level of the forearm supports should
be fixed at the level of your elbows. A
professional should help you with the ad-
justment of the forearm supports and the
handles, to help ensure correct posture.
Adjusting the handles:
Unscrew
the lock wheel (H). You can now pull
the handle (B) backwards or push it
forward. It is also possible to adjust the
angle of the handle. After adjusting the
handle to the desired position, tighten
the lock wheel (H) again. Be careful
when unscrewing / tightening the lock
wheel to avoid hurting your fingers.
Memory function:
Decide on the height
of the forearm support tube. Count visible
holes at the back of the handle tubes
(G). Unscrew the lock wheel (A). Pull the
tube (G) out of the frame. The fastening
piece (D) will now follow the handle tube.
Move the fastening piece (D) so that the
number of holes above it equals to the
previously counted holes. Fit the red
memory chip (E) on the tube in the first
available hole under the fastening piece
(D). Push the tube (G) and the fastening
piece (D) downwards and into the side
frame (F). Screw the lock wheel (A) halfway
in. Pull the tube (G) up until it stops, and
then tighten the lock wheel (A) properly.
From now on, when the handle tubes
are in the lowest position, they will stop
in the pre-set position when pulled up.

Brakes
Make sure the brakes are working
before every trip. Each brake lever (A)
works on each of the rear wheels. Do
not drive or push the walker while
the parking brakes are in use!
Parking brakes:
Push the brake levers
forward (A) to activate the parking
brakes. Be aware that the lever has some
resistance before it stops and locks the
rear wheel. Pull the brake levers back-
wards to release the parking brakes.
Driving brakes:
Pull the brake
levers towards you (B) to reduce
speed. Do not use continuously
while the walker is in motion.
Adjusting / checking:
Loosen the nut
(C). Tighten the brake cable (D) with the
adjustment screw (E). Adjust both brake
blocks (F) so the distance to the wheel
surface is approximately 1 mm and then
tighten the nut (C). Make sure the brakes
are not adjusted too tight and pressing
hard into the rubber of the wheels
when the parking brake is activated.
Maintaining:
Clean the brake block
(F) and the brake spring (G) frequently.
The wheels and brakes can be replaced
if they are worn out or damaged.

Seat
The walker has a safe and convenient
net seat, through which you have a
view to the ground while walking. It can
easily be wiped with a cloth if needed.
The parking brakes must be activated
before using the seat. Push both brake
levers forward until they lock (A). Both
rear wheels are now locked. Sit with
your back towards the basket (B).
Basket
The basket holds up to 5 kilos. It can be
removed and washed gently at 60 °C.

Edge guard / Tilt function
Edge guard:
The brake blocks (A),
which are in front of the rear wheels
prevent the rear wheels from catch-
ing on corners, door frames etc.
Tilt function:
To use the tilt function
use the front of the foot and press
down on the tilt pedal (B), which is
beside the rear wheel. This helps to tilt
the walker over thresholds, edges etc.
Please note: Take care when passing
obstacles such as thresholds etc.
Transport
The walker should be transported in
the folded and locked position (
see
paragraph Unfolding / Folding
). Ensure
that the lock clamp is on, so that the
walker cannot unfold unintentionally. Be
careful when loading the walker into a
vehicle, giving attention to securing it.
Storage
The walker should be stored in an upright
position. If stored outdoors, then under
cover to protect it. Do not leave your
walker unattended. Do not put heavy
items on top of the walker during storage.
Cleaning
The walker can be hosed and washed
with normal household detergents. Do
not use abrasives. Avoid flushing directly
against bearings (wheels, front forks).
