Height adjustment of push handles
Insert push handles at
least to the “
MAX
” mark in
the frame tube (
pic. 3
). Se-
cure them at the desired
height by turning the lock-
ing lever clockwise. Adjust
both handles to the same
height.
The push handles must be adjusted parallel to the direc-
tion of movement!
Maximum permissible angle between the longitudi-
nal center line of the handle and the direction of move-
ment is 0°.

The position of the locking lever itself can be adjusted
by simultaneously pulling and rotating it. To change the
height setting of the push handles, rotate the locking
lever counterclockwise in order to release the fixation.
Then lock the handle at the desired height, as described
above.
Adjusting the brakes

If braking is poor or too hard, the brake can be adjusted
either at the brake housing above (
pic. 6
) or using the
adjusting screw on the Bowden cable below (
pic. 7
) to
achieve the desired braking effect.
The brake is correctly adjusted when the brake lever as
well as the brake wires are free of play and the wheels
can be rotated without grinding noises when the brake
is released.
Braking | Parking
To brake when walking with the rollator, pull both brake
handles upwards with your hands (
pic. 8
). Always brake
slowly while applying equal pressure with both hands.

To apply the brakes/park the rollator, press both brake
handles downwards until they audibly click into place
(
pic. 9
)! To release the brake, pull both brake handles up-
wards once again until they are released (brake handles
are in the middle position).
The braking effect can be impaired by wear and tear on
the tires. For this reason, regularly check the braking
effect.
