Using Bure Walker with Gait Training Kit 56-388

DHG Bure Standard S Bure Low S 1

  • The gait support harness has four blue straps with a plastic buckle allowing for adjustments in length, having steel carabiner clips at the ends to be fasten to the gait walker. The carabiner clips on to the metal mounts placed under the table of the Gait walker.
  • Apply the gait walker support harness by clipping on the two front carabiners to the front mounters, one on each side of the table.
  • Place the user standing up in the Gait walker. Pull back the harness in between the legs and clip on the carabiners to the back mounters, one on each side of the table. Adjust the harness to the user by pulling in the back strap loops.
  • Observe! Intended use of the Gait trainer support harness is to practise walking. It is not a sitting or lifting aid.

DHG Bure Standard S Bure Low S 2

Raising/Lowering the Frame – Electric
The desired height is adjusted with Arrow or Arrow .
Handset TiMOTION Plus also have charge indicator / battery (low, medium, high) and Service indicator (see further under “17 Hand Control Plus”).

Raising/Lowering the Frame – Gas
Release the gas strut by moving the handle upward (the gas strut will raise the Walker). Let go of the handle at the desired height (the gas strut a locked).
Release the gas strut by moving the handle upward. Use your body weight to press the frame down. Let go of the handle at the desired height (the gas strut will lock).

Adjusting the Handles
To adjust handles to the desired position; undo knob, adjust handle, tighten knob.

Left and Right Adjustment of Armrests
The armrests can be adjusted sideways for optimal support; undo knob, adjust armrest, tighten knob.

Locking/Unlocking Castors
Depress the foot brake to set it and lock the castor.
Press down on the protruding part of the brake to release it.

Control Box Wiring
Remove the control box cover to make the connections as described below. Use a screwdriver or similar; refer to the special labels on the control box.
NOTE: Make sure that plugs are connected to the correct sockets otherwise the actuators can be damaged.

  1. Socket for the raise/lower actuator.
  2. Hand control socket.
  3. Battery terminal socket.
  4. Plug socket. NOTE: The plug must ALWAYS be connected to the control box for IP protection to be valid.

DHG Bure Standard S Bure Low S 6

Battery Charging

  • Plug needs to connect to 230V wall socket. Charging starts automatically.
    • LED / battery flashes green.
  • The battery is of the LiOn type and insensitive to how long / how often you charge the battery. Full charge on discharged battery takes about 24 hours.
  • We recommend that the battery plug be removed from the control box if the product will be out of use for an extended period (more than one week) or if the battery is switched off by means of the ON/OFF switch. This eliminates the risk of disabling the battery as the control box always uses a small quantity of electricity even when the Walker is not in use.

LEDs on Control Box and Battery

Control box – green light when power is available from battery/mains socket.

Battery:

  • The LED flashes green during charging.
  • ON/OFF: To use the product, press ON.
  • The green lamp will begin to flash.
  • Use the OFF button (hold down for 5 s) to switch off the battery if the product will not be used for an extended period.
  • The LED will shows a constant green light when the battery is fully charged.
  • When the battery is in normal state/in operation, the LED flashes green at REGULAR intervals, namely 0.5 s ON, 4 s OFF.
  • When the battery requires charging (remaining charge <25%) the LED will flash orange/red at REGULAR intervals, namely 0.5 s ON, 4 s OFF.

NOTE: The battery has an in-built device that automatically switches it off when remaining charge is <20%. The LED is then extinguished. The battery must now be fully charged before the electronics can be used again.

Maintenance

Check that everything is clean and working before using.
Recommended at least once per year

DHG Bure Standard S Bure Low S 8

Do not use rinsing agent. To prolong product life, avoid tumble-drying.

Storage and transportation

If the walker is not to be used for some time or e.g., during transport, we recommend that the emergency stop button be pressed in. The walker should be transported and stored in -10 ° C to + 50 ° C and in normal humidity, 20% to 80% non-condensing. The air pressure should be between 700 and 1060 hPa. Leftmost symbol indicates storage and transportation. Let the walker reach room temperature before the batteries are charged or the walker is used. The walker should not be stored so that it is exposed to dust, or so that the battery or gas piston is exposed to direct sunlight.

DHG Bure Standard S Bure Low S 9

Operation

The operating environment should be 5 °C to 40°C, relative humidity 20% to 80% non-condensing, and atmo-spheric pressure 700 to 1060 hPa. See also Technical Information below. Leftmost symbol indicates operating condition.
