1. Remove all contents from carton.
2. Open frame and place upside-down on the floor. Attach one front leg (no brake) onto front of Rollator. To do this, loosen the tightening knob anti-clockwise, located on the outside of the front of the frame. Then slide the leg into the tube provided by pushing the button. You can now adjust the height of the seat to your liking. Next, re-tighten the tightening knob with the button on the outside of the frame, in order to secure everything in place. Repeat the process with the other front leg (no brake) to assure that both legs are set to the same height.
3. Attach back legs (with brakes) using the same process, making sure the wheels are on the outside of the Rollator and are at the same height as the front wheels. Affix brake cable to the black portion of the leg using the “S” shaped clamp provided.
4. Insert handle tube into frame and set to desired height. Secure in place using tightening knob, threading the knob in from the outside. Repeat for second handle, making sure both are set to the same height.
5. Attach padded backrest by depressing the black thumb buttons and sliding into the black bracket. Note that back rest can be folded up when not in use.
• Fully unfold the walker until the folding hinge under
the seat is locked in the open position.
• When the walker is fully unfolded, the seat can be
pulled down into position.
• Fold the backrest down before use.
• The height of the Rollator can be adjusted in two ways to accommodate many different users.
1. Remove tightening knob from handle.
2. Set handle to desired height.
3. Replace tightening knob into handle, making sure to insert knob from outside.
4. Repeat for second handle, making sure both handles are set to same height setting.

1. Lock the wheels.
2. Pull up the padded seat and fold the bars under the seat.
3. The walker will fold easily with the pouch bag attached.
4. Fold the backrest up to minimize storage space.
1. Make sure the Rollator is fully open, the seat is down and the folding bar under the seat is locked in the down position.
2. Make sure that both knobs are fully tightened and at equal heights. Test Rollator for stability before applying full weight to hand grips.
3. Test the loop locks before operating the Rollator. When wheels are locked (see illustrations for locking and releasing locks below), the lock bar on the rear wheels should prevent wheels from turning. If the wheels turn while the brakes are locked, please take the unit back to the seller for adjustment. When the locks are released, the wheels should turn freely.
4. Always lock the loop locks before sitting. Do not use seat when unit is on an incline or uneven surface.
5. Replace wheels when significantly worn or damaged.
6. Do not have anyone push you while you are seated on the Rollator. This is a walking aid only and is not to be used as a transportation device.
7. Seat is only to be used for temporary rest, not for long periods of time.
8. Do not stand on the rollator.
