• To adjust the brakes, use a 10mm wrench to tighten the 10mm nut while holding
the cable-housing nut.
• Brake cables should be flush along the legs of the Rollator. Ensure excess brake
cable loops out the front of the Rollator.
Caution: After making any adjustments to the rollator brakes, you must test the brakes
before the rollator is used. See Maintenance instructions.
To Operate the Brakes
• To slow down, squeeze the brake handles up.
• To lock the brakes, push down on the brake handles until you feel or hear the
brakes click into locked position. If the brakes have been adjusted but the rear
wheels on the rollator move while the brakes are in the locked position, DO
NOT use the rollator. Please contact your Distributor, pharmacy or call our toll-
free customer service number on 1800 460 460 (Australia) or 0508 468 222
(New Zealand) for returns or repairs.
• To release the brakes from the locked position, simply pull up on the brake
handles.
Using the Rollator when walking
For proper positioning and use of your rollator, imagine a line drawn across the back
of the rear wheels. Part of one foot should be slightly ahead of that line as you walk.
Using the Rollator as a Seat
• SAFETY WARNINGS: Also See General Warnings and Safety, Page 2
• Before using the seat portion of your rollator, ALWAYS lock the brakes FIRST.
• DO NOT navigate the rollator while sitting on the seat. The brakes should
always be locked when the seat is being used. Risk of fall and serious injury may
result if brakes are not locked while the user is sitting on the seat.
• DO NOT use the seat without the backrest. Falls are possible if the user leans
or slides backwards on the seat.
• DO NOT sit on the walker if the ground is sloped or uneven.
• DO NOT exceed the maximum weight capacity of 250 lbs.
• DO NOT use the rollator as a wheelchair.
