Opening and Folding the Walker
To open the walker, hold the two sides of the frame in both hands and push
them away from each other. To ensure the frame remains open push the locking
mechanism located in the centre, from the handle, to lock it open (fig 2). To fold
the walker unlock the locking mechanism by puling it in the centre from the single
front wheel side, up towards the handles. Completely close the frame by pulling it
together at the handle end of the frame.
Handle Adjustment
Remove the hand knob and bolt. Pull the handle to new setting (there are five
fixed settings at 25 mm intervals), re-fit and tighten the knob, washers and bolt
ensuring that the head of the bolt is inside the hexagonal hole. (fig. 3)
Brakes
Operation
The Tri Wheel Walkers are fitted with locking brakes. To apply the brakes pull up
on the brake handles. To lock the brakes push down on both brake handles until
they click into the locked position. To release the brakes simply pull up on the
brake handles until they click.

Adjustment
The pressure needed to brake can be adjusted by turning the knurled knob whilst
holding the nut below it. Both the knob and nut are located above the brake
shoe. Turning the knob anti-clockwise increases the pressure needed to brake
by moving the brake shoe nearer to the wheel and compressing the spring. It is a
case of trial and error to suit individual users' grip strength.
Recommend that any adjustments should be carried out by your retail outlet or
issuing prescriber.
WARNING!
Brakes that are adjusted to give light pressure will be less effective at preventing rear
wheel movement under load. After any adjustment brakes must be tested to ensure
they are still effective in both locking and travel mode before general use. Failure to
do so may result in injury to the user.
Safe Use
When using the walker be aware that stability depends on all three wheels being in
contact with the flat surface. Care should be taken when negotiating uneven ground,
inclines, kerb etc. as stability will inevitably be reduced. Beware of wet floors and
outdoor hazards such as leaves, snow and ice.
Ensure that the frame is opened completely with the folding mechanism locked in the
open position.
When folding walker please ensure that all limbs and articles of clothing are free from
entrapment.
Cleaning
The Tri Wheel Walkers are designed for minimum maintenance. It is manufactured
from chrome plated tubing, powder coated tubing or aluminium painted tubing and
requires the occasional wipe-over with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Do not use
harsh abrasive materials!
Maintenance
Daily, before use, check the effective operation of the brakes.
Check that the wheels turn and swivel freely and there is no debris building around
the axle. If the folding operation becomes stiff, loosen the bolt that fixes right hand
side frame to the front wheel support plate by about quarter of a turn.
Regularly inspect that the central locking mechanism is secure, i.e. no fasteners are
loose or missing.
Upon finding any fault discontinue use of the walker and contact the retail outlet or
issuing prescriber.
Warranty Information
The tri wheel walkers are warranted for one year from date of purchase
due to faulty workmanship and materials. Please contact your supplier/
dealer should a fault occur.
The warranty does not extend to the consequential costs resulting from
fault clearance, in particular freight and travel costs, loss of earnings,
expenses etc.
The manufacturer will not accept responsibility for any damage or injury
caused by misuse or non observance of the instructions set out above.
