Operating Instructions
Walking with the Rollator
Position yourself between the handles of the rollator. Maintain an upright posture and push the rollator forward slightly ahead of you. Use the handles for balance and support. The 360° steering wheels allow for easy navigation. Apply the brakes gently to control your speed as needed.
Using the Seat
To use the seat, ensure the rollator is on a flat, stable surface. Engage both parking brakes by pushing the brake levers down until they lock. Verify the rollator is stable before carefully sitting down. The seat provides a convenient resting spot. To stand up, disengage the parking brakes after you are fully upright and stable.
Folding and Storage
To fold the rollator for storage or transport, first ensure the storage bag is empty and the backrest is in its upright position. Lift the seat by pulling the strap or handle located in the center of the seat. The rollator will begin to fold inward. Continue to bring the sides together until it is fully collapsed. The compact design allows it to stand upright when folded, measuring approximately 24.5" x 36.5" x 10".
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe down the frame and seat with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Brake Inspection: Regularly check the brake cables for fraying and ensure the brake levers engage properly. Adjust if necessary.
- Wheel Check: Inspect wheels for wear and tear. Ensure they rotate freely and are free of debris.
- Fasteners: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Do not overtighten.
