Operating Instructions
Using the rollator as a walker:
For proper positioning and use of the 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:
• Push the rollator to the desired location.
• LOCK the brakes BEFORE sitting.
To Operate the Brakes:
• T o slow down, squeeze the brake
handles up.
• T o lock the brakes, push down on
the brake handles until you feel or
hear the brakes click into the 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 call our toll-free
Customer Service number at
1-800-MEDLINE for returns or repairs.
• T o release the brakes from the locked
position, simply pull up on the brake
handles.
CAUTION: After making any adjustments to the rollator brakes, you must test
the brakes before the rollator is used. See Maintenance Instructions.
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.
