Height Adjustment

Undo the two 

Wing Nuts (F)

 and then slide 

out the two height adjusting bolts on each stilt, 
evenly raise or lower the stilt legs to the desired 
height, then simply replace the bolts and refi t the 
wing nuts. 

Be sure to check that all wing nuts are fully 
tightened before use.

Lateral Balance

When standing erect, the leg bands and upper 
strut tubes should apply a slight force against 
the side of your legs. If they pull outward or 
press excessively inward, make the following 
adjustments with the help of a colleague, or after 
you have removed your stilts. 

Loosen the nuts and bolts in the slotted brackets 
retaining the tube clamps on each stilt. 

(G)

 

Slide the strut tube assemblies and clamps in 
the direction necessary 

(H)

 to apply slight inward 

pressure to your legs. Then tighten securely. 

A trial and error approach may be necessary to 
obtain this balance setting.
