Safety

When folding and unfolding the rollator, be aware so you do not hurt your fingers.
Be aware not to put your fingers in open holes or between stationary parts.
Make sure that the lock wheels for height adjustment of the handles are locked tight.
When stationary or parked, make sure the parking brakes on both sides are activated (A).
Do not use the rollator on stairs. Be careful when walking down kerns.
Check the brakes before use every time, and that the rollator locks in unfolded position.
Do not use the rollator to trans- port heavy loads or persons.
Be aware that some parts of the rollator might feel hot or cold when exposed to extreme temperatures.
Do not modify the product as this might put your safety at risk and the guarantee will become void.
Before sitting on the seat (C), make sure the parking brakes on both sides are activated (A).
To reduce the risk of falling, do not lean or bend sideways or over the back of the rollator whilst in the seated position.
Do not tilt the rollator too much sideways (D), to avoid the risk of falling. For the same reason, bags etc. must never be hung on the handles.
To give the right support and safety, walk straight and make sure the rollator is kept as close to your body as possible (E). Walk between the rear wheels (F), not behind them (G).
Be aware that the rollator may roll faster than you when walking downhill, which may put you in risk of falling. Activate the driving brakes to adjust the speed (B).
Be careful when wearing fluttering skirts or trousers as they could get caught in the wheels, which could lead to falling. Wear sturdy footwear to avoid injuries.
For safety reasons it is prohibited to sit on the rollator during public transportation. Store your rollator safely and make sure the parking brakes on both sides are activated (A).
Do not use the rollator on slippery or icy surfaces.
Keep the rollator away from fire and hot items.
Do not climb on the rollator.

Unfolding / Folding

Unfolding: Release the lock clamp positioned at the seat bars (A). Press
the seat bars down and outwards.
The side frames will slide apart.
Press down the seat bars (B). You will hear a clicking sound. The rollator is
now locked in its open position. Folding: Pull the strap on the seat (C) and press the side frames together.
Lock the clamp (D) over the seat bars. Carrying the rollator: The rollator must not be carried by the seat strap or the brake cables. Fold the rollator as shown on the illustration (E). Carry the rollator by the seat bars (F) when folded.

Handles / Memory function

Height adjusting: Untighten the lock wheel (A) (approx. 2 turns). Adjust the handle tube to a suitable height, then pull it slightly up and down (C) until you hear a clicking sound. Tighten the lock wheel (A). Adjust both handles to the same height by comparing the number scale on each side. It is recommended that the handles are set to the same height as your wrists when your arms are hanging alongside your body.
Memory Function: Decide on the height of the handles (see number scale). Count visible holes at the back of the handle tubes. Unscrew the lock wheel (A). Pull the tube (B) out of the frame. The fastening piece (D) will now follow the handle tube. Move the fastening piece (D) so that the number of holes above it equals to the previously counted holes. Fit the red memory chip (E) on the handle tube in the first available hole under the fastening piece (D). Push the handle tube (B) and fastening piece (D) downwards and into the side frame (F). Screw the lock wheel (A) halfway in. Pull the handle (G) up until it stops, and then tighten the lock wheel (A) properly. From now on, when the handles are in the lowest position, they will stop in the pre-set position when pulled up.

Brakes

Make sure the brakes are working before every trip. Each brake lever (A) works on each of the rear wheels. Do not drive or push the rollator while the parking brakes are activated. Parking brakes: Push both brake levers (A) downwards until they lock. Both rear wheels are now locked. Squeeze both brake levers upwards to release the parking brakes.
Driving brakes: Pull both brake levers (B) upwards to reduce speed. Do not use continuously while the rollator is in motion.
Adjusting / checking: Loosen the nut (C). Tighten the brake cable (D) with the adjustment screw (E). Adjust the brake block (F) so the distance to the inner drum brake is approximately 1.5 mm, and then tighten the nut (C). Turn the wheel around to check that the brake block is not touching the wheel.
Maintaining: Clean the brake block (F) and the brake spring (G) regularly. The wheels and brakes can be replaced if they are worn out or damaged.

Detachable rear wheels

Removal: Loosen the brake lever. Push down the red button on the hub (A) and slide the wheel off the axle (B) while still pushing the button down.
Attachment: Loosen the brake lever. Slide the wheel unto the axle (B). Push the wheel as far as possible inwards on the axle to make the wheel snap onto the axle. You will hear a “click” when the wheel is in place. The wheel is securely fastened when the axle is completely visible in (A) and slide the wheel off the axle (B) while still pushing the button down.

Seat

The rollator has a safe and convenient mesh seat, which provides view to the ground while walking. It can easily
be wiped with a cloth if needed. The parking brakes must be activated before using the seat. Push both brake levers downwards until they lock (A). Both rear wheels are now locked. Sit with your back towards the bag (B).

Edge guard / Tilt function

Edge guard: The edge guards (A), which are in front of the rear wheels prevent the rear wheels from catching on corners, door frames etc.
Tilt function: To use the tilt function use the front of the foot and press down on the tilt pedal (B), which is beside the rear wheel. This helps to tilt the rollator over thresholds, edges etc.
Please note: Take care when descending kerns.

Shopping bag

The bag holds up to 15 kilos and can be washed gently at up to 60 °C.
Mounting: Activate the parking brakes (A). Place the brackets on the bag (B) onto the carrying handles of the rollator and push them downwards. When positioned correctly, you will hear a clicking sound. Ensure that the brake cable still runs unrestrained along the frame (C).
Removal: Apply the parking brakes. Place your hands towards the front of the bag, on both sides. Lift the bag up while pressing it slightly together. Be aware so you do not hurt your fingers.

TOPRO Ergo Grip

TOPRO Ergo Grip offers ergonomic grip and support surfaces. The top front of the handles provides steady grip position when getting up from a chair or couch. Always make sure the parking brakes are activated when getting up from seated position. The Ergo Grip also offers extra support while standing. Always use the traditional grip position for easy access to the driving brakes while walking.

Transport

The rollator should be transported in the folded and locked position (see section Unfolding / Folding). Ensure that the lock clamp is on, so that the rollator cannot unfold unintentionally. Be careful when loading the rollator into a vehicle, giving attention to securing it.

Storage

The rollator should be stored in an upright position. If stored outdoors it must be un-der a cover to protect it. Do not leave your rollator unattended. Do not put heavy items on top of the rollator during storage.

Cleaning

The rollator can be hosed and washed with normal household detergents. Do not use abrasives. Avoid flushing directly against bearings (wheels, front forks).

Disinfection

Disinfection must only be carried out by authorized personnel and by wearing sufficient protective equipment. The surface of the rollator must be cleaned with a disinfectant containing 70–80 % ethanol. We advise against disinfectant that contains chlorine or phenol. The manufacturer cannot be held responsible for any damage or injuries that might occur using harmful disinfectant or disinfection carried out by unauthorized personnel.

Inspection / Maintenance / Re-use

It is recommended that inspection and maintenance are carried out regularly (frequency is determined by how and how often the rollator is used). Check the following items: Frame, screws, handles, handle tubes, brakes, brake parts, wheels, seat and accessories. This also applies when the rollator is to be prepared for re-use. Please see detailed instructions in this user manual about maintenance of brakes and cleaning/disinfection. The recommended maintenance is not a requirement, and no preventive maintenance is required provided that the rollator is used as intended according to this user manual.

Material / Recycling
The rollator is made of plastic-coated aluminum tubes, plastic couplings and material made of plastic and polyester. There are ball bearings in all wheels and forks. Most rollator parts can be recycled. Dispose the rollator and its packaging according to the applicable regulations in your country. For information, please contact your public authorities.

Damage caused by incorrect use or parts that are exposed to natural wear and tear (e.g., brake block, brake cable, wheel, bag, seat and handle) are exempt from the 7-year warranty. For repairs during the warranty period, please contact your local mobility shop or dealer. The warranty is void if unauthorized spare parts or accessories have been or are being used on the product.
