Maintenance
Your rollator should be checked periodically to ensure the brakes are functioning properly and
that all nuts and bolts are secure.
Periodically test the brakes by both walking and squeezing the brakes and by stopping,
pushing
down on the brakes to a locked position, and then trying to push the walker. If the brakes do not
lock the wheels, the brakes need to be adjusted. If adjustment does not tighten the brakes,
DO NOT use the rollator.
