WALKING GUIDE
When walking take controlled, thoughtful steps forward looking
ahead. Plan your route to avoid objects and obstacles. Use
good posture with your stilts apart and weight centered. Always
rotate with small incremental steps to make turns. Never make
sharp, quick turns.
To move sideways always check your path first, take a short
shuffle stride sideways, then regain your balance before moving
the second stilt.
WARNING:
NEVER WALK BACKWARDS. Moving backwards
may cause injury or death from falling.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR WALKING AND WORKING:
To prevent falls and possible injury follow these Safety Instructions.
1. Practice using your stilts and feel comfortable
walking before working with and carrying tools

2. Always make sure your work area is clean,
