While sitting, DO NOT push

the U-Step II. This is unsafe.
D. Sitting Down
To sit down, you can either turn
around while holding the han-
dlebar, or pivot the U-Step II
around so that it is positioned
behind you and then sit down
on the seat.
When you are sitting on the
U-Step II you are facing back-
wards relative to the moving
direction of the U-Step II.
3) The Tension Control Lever is initially set to Low (L). Push the
Tension Control Lever forward (toward the H) to increase the
tension. Re-tighten the tension locking bolt making sure the
lever settles into one of the set holes.
Note:
If you do not posi-
tion the lever in a set hole, the tension lever might rub against
the side of the gray wheel.
4) Remember to
squeeze one of the
hand brakes while test-
ing the walker. Test the
rolling speed of the
walker; if you need
more or less resistance
adjust accordingly.
