- Cleaning: Wipe down the frame and components with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Brake Check: Periodically check the brake cables and levers to ensure they are functioning correctly and provide adequate stopping power. Adjust if necessary.
- Wheel Inspection: Inspect the wheels for wear and tear. Ensure they rotate freely and are free of debris.
- Fastener Check: Regularly check all screws, bolts, and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Tighten any loose components.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your walker, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
- Walker is unstable: Ensure all frame components are fully unfolded and locked into place. Verify that the height adjustments on both sides are even and securely locked.
- Brakes are not working effectively: Check if the brake levers are properly engaged. Inspect the brake cables for any damage or looseness. Adjust the cable tension if needed.
