Using the brakes Adjusting the brakes
Thank you for choosing a walker from Etac.
Before using the walker read through the manual.
Ono is a four-wheeled walker intended as a walking aid for
indoor and outdoor use. (Fig. A)
Ono has been tested and approved in accordance to
EN ISO 11199-2 for a maximum user weight of max. 125 kg.
Ono is CE-marked and meets the requirements set out in the
medical device directive.
The brakes require minimal muscle strength and functions
as both a service brake and a parking brake.
ONO is delivered without handles mounted in the frame.
The walker should be opened out before the handles
are fitted. Fit the handles (see height adjustment below),
adjust the brakes (see brake adjustment below), and ONO
is ready to use.
Folding: Apply the brakes and hold one of the push
handles at the same time as folding up the seat by pulling
upwards on the catch.(Fig. B)
Unfolding: Apply the brakes and hold one of the push
handles at the same time as folding down the seat.
NB! The seat must be completely unfolded when the wal-
ker is in use.
The push handles are adjustable in height from 75 cm to
100 cm. When setting the height the push handles’ upper
part shall be at the level of your wrists (Fig. C1). Release
the brake strap, undo the knob, remove the screw and set
the height.
Ensure that the screws are in the correct position and
tighten properly. Then adjust the brakes (see brake adjust-
ment).
If the walker feels unstable after having been used for a
while, check that the screws are properly tightened.
General information
The brakes functions as both a service brake and a parking
brake.
Pull the handle upwards for the service brake and push it
downwards (fig D) for the parking brake.
(See Fig. E 1-5)
When the height is adjusted the brakes must also be adju-
sted (E1).
Put the brake lever in the “parking brake” position (E2).
Tension the brake strap by pulling hard downwards (E3).
Try the brakes (E4) and readjust as necessary (E5).
Reassemble the brake strap as shown in F 1-3.
Please note ...
• When the walker is new the wheels can leave marks on
untreated wooden floors.
• When in use the ONO must be completely unfolded,
and with the seat down in the locked position.
• Care must be taken when the basket is fully laden as the
walker’s handling characteristics may change.
This applies in particular when manoeuvring over thres-
holds or kerbs.
