WARNING & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- DO NOT use your Tour without first completely reading this owner’s manual. If you are unable to understand any portion of the owner’s manual, please contact Motivo, your dealer, or healthcare professional before attempting to use your Tour. Failure to understand may result in personal injury or damage.
- You MUST be able to support the majority of your weight when using the Tour. Please seek advice from your healthcare professional to determine if the Tour is appropriate for you to use and the proper adjustment and usage of your Tour.
- DO NOT use the Tour as a wheelchair or transport device. The Tour is NOT intended for propelling while seated. Serious injury can occur.
- ALWAYS observe the Tour’s 300 lb (136 kg) weight limit. The weight limit is the combined weight of the user and items placed in the storage area, on the tray, or otherwise attached to the Tour. The tray weight limit is 8 lb (3.6 kg) and the storage compartment is 10 lb (4.5 kg). The seat weight limit is 300 lb (136 kg).
- DO NOT put more than 5 lb (2.3 kg) on the storage door or use it as a seat.
- ALWAYS make sure both side latches are fully secured before use.
- Parking brakes MUST BE LOCKED before using the seat.
- ONLY use the seat when secured on both interlock features on the side panels and sits parallel to the ground. DO NOT use the seat when the Tour is on an uneven surface or incline.
- DO NOT use the Tour on stairs, escalators, soft ground, uneven surfaces, steep inclines, slippery surfaces, moving walkways, or in the shower.
- ALWAYS check to ensure handles are secure, handle grips do not twist, there is nothing hindering the movement of the wheels/casters, and the brakes are properly functioning before use.
- All four wheels MUST remain in contact with the ground at all time during use.
- DO NOT hang anything other than Motivo certified accessories from your Tour. Hanging items from the Tour can make it unstable and cause it to tip.
- MAKE SURE the handlebars are set to the appropriate height as specified by your healthcare professional before use.
- If traveling over a BUMP it may be necessary to temporarily walk slightly behind the Tour, vs. inside of it, until you are clear of the bump to provide maximum stability.
Product Description
Unfolding Your Tour

- Using the LEFT handle, FULLY unfold the LEFT side. Press down on the LEFT side latch lever until it locks. WARNING: Pinch points exist between the front and side panels. Make sure hands and body are clear of all pinch points.
- Using the RIGHT handle, FULLY unfold the RIGHT side. Press down on the RIGHT side latch lever until it locks.

Adjusting Brake Tension
-
Standing inside the Tour, loosen the locking nut on the brake assembly by turning it clockwise.
-
For more tension and to move the brake shoe closer to the rear wheel, turn the adjustment screw counter-clockwise. To move the brake shoe away from the rear wheel, turn the adjustment screw clockwise.
-
When the tension is set, tighten the locking nut against the body to secure by turning it counter-clockwise.
DO NOT use if brakes are not properly adjusted. When properly adjusted, the brakes will prevent the rear wheels from rotating and when the brakes are released the rear wheels will rotate freely.
Adjusting the Handle Height
- To keep the Tour from rolling, set parking brakes (p. 8) and complete steps 2-3 for each handle.
- Release the handlebar clamp by pulling on the lever.
- Pull on the loop to disengage the spring-loaded pin.
- Adjust the height of the handlebars. A common setup is such that the hand grips are even with the crease in your wrists when standing upright. (See pg. 17 for reference.)
- Slide handle until the selected handle hole aligns with spring-loaded pin. To secure, release the pin and make sure its springs back fully into the handlebar hole.
- Close the handlebar clamp to fully secure handlebar again. The clamp is functioning when the handlebar does not have any free movement.
- Check that the clamp is fully clasped, and that the lever is not pressed against foam.
