operating the knee walker
The Drive Knee Walker is a mobility device that provides
strength and comfort to anyone who may have an injury
below the knee. It allows an even distribution of body
weight by supporting half of the weight on the device
and the other half on the non-injured leg. The device
has a cushioned platform to support both the injured leg
and ankle to make certain that no weight will be placed
on the lower leg.
The device is designed for easy steering and stopping.
Brakes are also featured on this device for controlled
movement and safety.
