Safety Instructions
To ensure your safety in using the Medline rolling walker (rollator), the following safety information and all
instructions must be followed.
GENERAL CAUTIONS:
DO NOT use this product without first reading and understanding the instructions contained in
this manual.
If you are unable to understand the warnings, cautions, or instructions, contact a healthcare
professional, dealer, or technical personnel before use. Failure to do this may result in bodily injury or damage
to the device.
DO NOT
self-propel the rolling walker while seated.
Rolling walkers are intended for individual use only and are
NOT TO BE USED AS A WHEELCHAIR.
Serious injury to the user and/or damage to the rolling walker’s frame or wheels may result from improper use.
DO NOT
use the rolling walker to walk backwards, down gradients or to climb stairs, curbs, or to go over
obstacles. Serious risk of fall or injury may occur.
√ The backrest is intended to provide back support while seated. The backrest is not intended to support
full body weight. Avoid leaning while sitting as this may result in fall.
√ All wheels must be in contact with the floor and/or ground at
ALL TIMES
. This will ensure the rolling walker is
properly balanced.
DO NOT
exceed the maximum weight capacity (including bag contents) or serious injury could result:
Maximum weight capacity: 250 lbs (113 kg)
• Items should be placed completely in the tote bag and should not protrude. Excess weight may cause the
rolling walker to tip, resulting in bodily injury or rolling walker damage.
• The compartment located under the seat has a weight limitation of 10lbs (4.5kg).
• The tote bag has a weight limitation of 5lbs (2.25kg). Other than the tote bag
DO NOT
hang anything from
the frame, backrest or handles of the rolling walker.
√ Before each use make sure the rolling walker frame is fully opened.
√ Periodically wipe down the rolling walker with a soft cloth and non abrasive cleaner.
SEAT CAUTIONS:
√ The brakes
MUST
be in the locked position
BEFORE
sitting on the seat.
DO NOT
sit on the rolling walker while it is being loaded into a vehicle or while it is being transported in
a vehicle.
DO NOT
use the seat to transport people or objects.
DO NOT
sit on the seat when the rolling walker is on an incline.
√ For good blood circulation, when seated on the rolling walker, ensure that your feet rest on the floor.
BRAKE CAUTIONS:
Check the brakes for proper operation. Make sure that all parts are secure and that the moving parts are
in good working order.
Wheels should roll easily and not wobble.
When rising from a lower position,
DO NOT
use the rolling walker to provide assistance to the user. If the
rolling walker is used to pull the user up to a standing position, the rolling walker may move even if the brakes
are in the locked position and this could result in a fall.
DO NOT
push the rolling walker while brakes are enabled. Brakes are to be used to keep the wheels from
rolling. However, it may not prevent the rolling walker from moving if it is pushed.
