How to Walk with a Walker
Determine Correct Walker Height
Stand behind the walker with your arms and hands hanging at your sides and both feet in line with the rear wheels. Adjust the height of the walker handles (see Assembly Instructions) so that they are even with your hip joint. When you stand and grip the handles, your arms should be slightly bent at your elbows (approximately 20 to 30 degrees.)
Walking with your Wheeled Walker
1. Roll your walker slowly forward so that the rear wheels are a few inches ahead of your body.
2. Step forward and place one foot in line with the rear wheels.
3. Maintaining a steady roll forward, place your other foot in line with the rear wheels.
4. Determine a pace that is comfortable and allows you to place each step in line with the rear wheels.
