Please read these notes carefully before use. Be sure to follow the instructions and keep them in a safe place! If
this product is to be used by other persons, they must be fully informed of these safety warnings before use.
Indication/Contraindication
The rollator is a mobility aid for people with mobility restrictions, e.g. people with a disability that makes walking difficult or
who cannot walk for long, providing them with the opportunity to go further afield. Staying on the move not only serves to
improve circulation, coordination and balance, but it also enhances the user’s well-being.
This rollator is designed both for use in enclosed areas and in the open. It is equipped with a removable bag. The rollator
provides a seat for short rests. It can be folded easily for transportation, thus saving space. The rollator should not be used
by persons with perception impairments, serious problems with their balance or an inability to sit. The user must have
adequate perception skills and adequate physical ability to be able to steer a rollator.
Safety Indications
• Talk to your doctor or specialist retailer to see whether
this Rollator is optimally suitable for you and your needs.
• Check that the Rollator is in perfect condition every time
before you use it. Check the following components and
make sure:
– all screws, nuts and other parts are firmly tightened
– all wheel surfaces are intact
– the height adjustment screws are firmly tightened
– the brakes function both as parking brakes and hand
brakes
– there are no visible signs of wear on the frames, welded
joints and plastic elements
– wheels and wheel forks should be free of dirt and
turn smoothly.
Do not use a damaged or defective Rollator!
• Ensure that the Rollator is correctly engaged before
every use.
• Always activate the parking brake when you stop or
park the Rollator. Always use the hand brakes slowly,
evenly and both together.
• The braking effect can be reduced if the tyre surface is
worn. Inspect the braking action of the brakes regularly.
• The Rollator should only be used on firm and even sur-
faces. There is a risk of slipping on dirty, wet, frosty or
snow-covered ground! The braking effect is also limi-
ted. Please adapt the way you move and walk to these
used in moving traffic.
• On smooth surfaces such as tiles, stone flooring, PVC, etc.
the wheels can block when braking under certain circum-
stances. Therefore please check the braking performance
of your Rollator carefully on these floors and adjust the
way you move and walk accordingly. If you wish to sit on
the Rollator you should also make sure that the wheels
have a sufficient hold on the surface when the brakes are
applied and that the Rollator cannot slide away.
• The Rollator should not be used as a support when get-
ting up from a crouching or sitting position! It should
only be used for its intended purpose and should not
be used for transporting objects over 5 kg or persons.
• Ensure that the handles are adjusted to the correct
height for the user in order to avoid improper weight
load or falls. Always hold both handles; otherwise
you can lose your balance. We recommend you walk
between the handles. When walking, take care not to
bump your feet against the wheels or the step stool or
your legs against the cross brace.
• Make sure that your hands or clothes do not come into
contact with the moving parts of the Rollator! Be parti-
cularly careful when folding and unfolding the Rollator.
This applies in particular to hinges under the seat or in
the middle of the cross brace.
• The Rollator should be used on the pavement. The Rollator
should not be used in moving traffic. For your personal
safety on the road, it is advisable to wear additional
reflectors on your clothing in addition to the reflectors
already attached to the rollator on all four sides.
• Do not sit on the rollator when travelling on public
transport. Park the rollator with the brakes on so that it
cannot fall over or roll away. Look for a seat close by.
• Be careful near children. Children should not play with
the Rollator!
• The maximum permissible loading for the Rollator is
150 kg. This includes the maximum load in the bag of 5 kg.
• Do not hang any handbags or carrier bags on the handles,
the balance of the Rollator can be impaired if you do.
• Do not carry out any adjustments or modifications,
which impair the safety of the design. Parts such as
wheels, handles or brake cables may only be replaced
by a specialist retailer.
• Only use accessories approved by the manufacturer. Please
also read the instructions for use for each accessory.
• Do not carry or pull the rollator by the seat, the strap
for folding or the brake cables.
• In strong sunlight parts of the rollator, e.g. the handles
and seat, can get hot. Please ensure that you cover your
rollator up or leave it in a shady place.
• Please prevent skin contact with the Rollator if the
Rollator has been in cold temperature for a long period
of time in order to prevent freezing.
• Keep the rollator away from naked flames.
• Please prevent running into door frames, furniture, etc.
with the Rollator and check the secure position of the
Rollator when parked. The frame, connection elements and
welding seams may be damaged if the Rollator tips over.
• Please also prevent placing stress on the Rollator when
folded together! This could damage the frame, connec-
tion elements and welding seams.
• Do not use the Rollator in stairs or escalators.
• Do not stand on the rollator.
• Do not lean on the brake lever.
• If you have any queries, please refer to your dealer.
