7. Operating the brakes
The handbrake on your Aidapt Rollator works very similar to a bicycle hand brake:
7.1.
To stop, gently apply a gripping pressure to both brakes simultaneously (fig. 12), this
will slow down and stop your rollator.
7.2.
The brakes on your Aidapt Rollator have a park option (fig. 12a). To operate the park
option, push downwards on both brakes simultaneously. You will feel the brake
make a very slight click. Your brakes are now in the ‘lock’ position.
7.3.
To unlock, simply pull up the brake again, you will hear a slight click as the ‘park’
disengages.
