ASSEMBLY

  1. Height: Adjust height by pressing both push buttons, rotating foot-piece and pulling down until desired user height is obtained. The adjustment makes it easy to change the height of the crutch with 9 adjustments.
    The foot-piece has a circular ring marked to indicate the location of the push button. Rotate the foot-piece again until both push buttons snap into place.

  2. Grip: Adjust the grip to fit it an approximate 10” bend at user elbow. The height of the grip is easily adjusted using a wing nut and its 5 adjustments.

  3. Safety check: With the crutches positioned as in the diagram above, confirm that the user can lean forward comfortably while resting on the armpit support. The user should be comfortable when standing. Make sure both push buttons are securely in place and the grip nuts are securely tightened.
