5. Use
Walking
Make your first attempts to walk with the rollator on a level, firm sur-
face. Familiarise yourself with the function of the brakes. Let someone
accompany you during this initial period.
For an anatomically correct gait, the push handles must be set at pro-
per height (see sec. 4.4.).
•
Place yourself in the rollator so that your ankles are at the height of
the rear wheels.
•
Stand with good posture.
•
Grasp the push handles with both hands and your arms bent at a
slight angle.
When walking with the rollator try to stay as close as possible with
the body to the push handles. This increases the stability and safety
against tipping over; in addition, avoid a crooked back. Try to generally
walk in the rollator and not behind it. Take small steps and do not push
the rollator too far ahead.
You can determine the change of direction and speed by pushing the
rollator. Always use the brakes to slow down your movement. The rol-
lator could otherwise turn with the unbraked wheel and the braked
wheel, and could fall over.
Go around obstacles whenever possible. Try to use ramps or take lifts. If
this is not possible, the rollator must be carried over the obstacle. Find
a second person to help you do this, if possible.
Seating area
The rollator is also designed to be used as a seat by the user for short
breaks. It is therefore equipped with a seating area and a back support.
You must absolutely activate the locking brakes before sitting down.
The rollator could roll away and you could fall.
Lifting points
You can lift the rollator on the grips or frame sections, in order to carry
it over obstacles or steps.
