Umbrella with holder for rollator vital
Item No. 11448 051
black
Item No. 11448 058
checked, beige
The umbrella offers protection from rain in bad weather and shelter from the sun on hot days. It enables you to push your
rollator and apply the brakes safely with both hands.
Safety indications
• Wind can catch underneath the umbrella and affect the balance of the rollator. Be particularly careful in windy weather.
• The umbrella is wider than your rollator. You should make sure that the umbrella does not get caught and cause you to lose balance especially in
entrance ways or at traffic lights. Please also ensure that other people do not get hurt by the umbrella.
• Before opening, closing or otherwise adjusting the umbrella, apply the brakes of your rollator firmly so that it cannot roll away.
• Please be aware that the umbrella can change the equilibrium of the rollator.
• The umbrella is fixed to the height-adjustable handlebar and is suitable for the vital 54 rollator and the vital 62 rollator. In the lowest position
of the handlebars on the vital 54 rollator the folded umbrella may obstruct the steerable front wheel if it is mounted on the left-hand side of the
frame. In this case fix the umbrella on the right-hand side of the frame and adjust the umbrella so that it does not obstruct the use of the rollator
even when the umbrella is folded.

Assembly
1.
Loosen the screw underneath the handle (pic. 1). You can fix the holder to the frame with the
screw that has been supplied (pic. 2+3). Make sure the holder fits closely to the hand grip in
order to secure a firm hold.
2.
Push the umbrella into the holder and tighten the fixing bolt well (pic. 4) so that the umbrella is
fixed securely in the holder.
3.
When you put the umbrella up make sure that it is as upright and central as possible over the
rollator. This way it provides you with the best protection. Don’t adjust the umbrella so that it is
away from the rollator. This can adversely affect the stability of the rollator.
4.
When not in use, the umbrella can be folded down to save space and can be unfolded again for use.
To do this, press the button on the corner piece (pic. 5+6). The angle can be adjusted in various sta-
ges. Release the button and turn the pivoting arm to the next stop. The push button then returns to its
starting position.
5.
You can adjust the height of the umbrella to several settings. To do this, press the black button on
the telescopic rod (pic. 7). By extending or pushing the rod together you can select the desired
height.
6.
When not in use, the umbrella can simply be folded down and kept at the side of the rollator
thanks to the pivoting arm (pic. 8).
Storage
If the umbrella is not going to be used for a long time it can be stored folded down with the protec-
tive sleeve over it. Ensure that the umbrella is completely dry before storing it folded down for long
periods.
