ADJUSTMENT TO BRAKES

1. Your brake system will require periodic adjustment. The brake adjustment is similar to bicycle

brakes.

2. (g. 12) Shows the brake handle in its default delivered position. Should the brakes need adjusting

they can be tightened by unlocking Nut A and then unscrewing (anti-clockwise) Nut B. When the

brake arm has a 3mm clearance (g. 14) then Nut A should be retightened. An example of a user

adjusted brake handle is shown in (g. 13).

3. When adjusted, the brakes should work in both normal braking and in parking mode. If needed

then Nut B (g. 12 & g. 13) can be turned a further anti-clockwise, which will tighten the brake

cable more.

4. If the brake handles are fully adjusted and more tightening is required refer to (g. 14) where

further adjustment can be made.

5. After adjustment, check the park brakes by pushing down on the brake handles, ensuring that both

STORAGE

OPERATING THE BRAKES

1. Grip the side bar and lift (g. 11).

2. Continue lifting until the Rollator fully close (g. 4).

3. You may also wish to remove the half-round back from storage;

to do so pull the silver coloured locking buttons located on

either side of the tube lock outwards (g. 6(a)), then lift up the

back to detach (g. 6).

The handbrake on your Aidapt Rollator works very similar to a bicycle hand brake:

1. To stop, gently apply a gripping pressure to both brakes simultaneously, this will slow down and

stop your Rollator (g. 8).

2. The brakes on your Rollator have a park option. To operate the park option, push downwards on

both brakes simultaneously. You will feel the brake make a very slight click. Your brakes are now in

the ‘lock’ position (g. 9).

3. To unlock, simply pull up the brake again, you will hear a slight click as the‘park’ disengages (g.

10).

6. With the brakes o, lift the two ‘braked’ wheels o the ground and spin to ensure they turn freely.

If either of the braked wheels rub onto the brake arm, please check obstructions and repeat the

brake adjustment procedure above.

7. It is important that you check brake adjustments on a regular basis to take into account wear and

tear. However, brake adjustment must be checked at least once a month and denitely prior to a

change of user.

CARE, MAINTENANCE AND YOUR OBLIGATION

1. Only use your Aidapt Rollator for the purpose for which is intended, which is as an aid to walking.

It is intended your rollator is only used on standard pavements or at home. It should not be used

on rough terrain or pot-holed surfaces. The use of your Rollator on these surfaces can seriously

compromise your safety and may damage your Rollator beyond repair.

2. Keep your Aidapt Rollator clean by wiping down with a damp cloth with a mild detergent. Do not

under any circumstances use an abrasive or solvent-based cleaner, as this will damage the Rollator

and void your warranty.

3. Wipe o all surfaces with a dry cloth and use a water dispersing agent such as WD40 on all metal

joints.

4. Check that all wheels and the folding mechanism function correctly and that all wheels move freely

and without obstruction.

Withdraw your Aidapt Rollator immediately if any of the wheels become dicult to turn or if

you suspect damage or any other fault.

5. Monthly checks – check that the side locking levers are poorly secure (g. 5). Check the adjustment

to your brakes (g. 14). Ensure that the brakes are correctly adjusted with 3mm between both tyres

and brake(s), check castors.

CLEANING

All of the product components are manufactured from quality materials. However, it is very important

that you only clean your Rollator using a non-abrasive cleaner or mild detergent with a soft cloth
