OPERATING THE KNEE WALKER
The Dynarex Knee Walker is a mobility
device that provides strength and comfort
to anyone who may have an injury below
the knee. It allows an even distribution of
body weight by supporting half of the
weight on the device and the other half on
the non-injured leg. The device has a
cushioned platform to support both the
injured leg and ankle to make certain that
no weight will be placed on the lower leg.
The device is designed for easy steering
and stopping. Brakes are also featured
on this device for controlled movement
and safety.
• Placement of injured leg on pad should
be centered side to side and positioned
forward to cover the full length of pad.
• With injured leg on pad, stand as
straight as possible (adjust the height of
the Knee Walker as necessary).
• With injured foot pointing down, the
propulsion leg should be maintained as
close as possible to the pad.
• While on your toes, start out with small
steps with propulsion leg. Concentrate
on keeping that leg next to the pad. With
practice, you should be able to move
forward without deviating to the
opposite side.

• Lift the locking lever so that it is inside
the locking lever groove. If the locking
lever is too short and can not enter
the groove, rotate the locking lever
to elongate.
• Once the locking lever is in an upright
position, turn it 90 degrees so it locks into
place.
