PERSONAL SAFETY
For your health and comfort, make sure that you adopt a comfortable posture and that you can operate the braking mechanism with ease. Ensure that the handles are at equal heights and securely locked in position.
Ensure the walker is always fully folded out and locked in position before using.
Ensure that all the wheels are stable and are on the ground before using.
Ensure that the braking mechanism is adequate and test before using.
Ensure that the latest health and safety practice is used for carrying and lifting items, such as wheeled walkers.
ADJUSTMENTS FOR COMFORT
To adjust the height of all walkers, unscrew the tightening handles at either side of the walker anticlockwise to remove. Adjust the height of the walker to suit the user and then reinsert.
Tighten by turning the tightening handles clockwise to secure (as shown in the photo overleaf). Ensure that the tightening handles are on the outside of the rollator / triwalker.
