Please read and follow the instruction manual carefully before using

your new rollator for the first time. The instruction manual is an integral

4. Assembly/adjustments

4.1. Unfolding

• Position the rollator in the travel direction.

• Release the locking brakes (see sec. 4.5.).

• Tip the B+B rollator towards yourself until the load is taken off the

steered wheels and press the handles downwards at the same time

with a gentle jolt.

• To lock the folding mechanism, now fold the seat plate tight to

your seat (Fig. 3). This locks the rollator.

4.2.Folding

• Position the rollator in the travel direction.

• Activate the locking brakes.

• Hold the rollator firmly with one hand on the handle (Fig. 4).

• Now grasp the slot provided in the seat plate and simply pull it

upwards. Ensure that neither body parts nor pieces of clothing

become pinched during the folding process.

4.3.Attach basket

• The rollator is unfolded. Activate the locking brakes.

• Position yourself against the travel direction in front of the rollator.

• The basket can be hung on the hooks on the left and right of the

rollator (Fig. 5) and sits on the frame.

• To remove the basket, simply grasp the carrying handle and pull it

up and off.

• Place the tray onto the seat from above in such a way that the four

plastic pins of the tray fit into the holes of the seat (Fig. 6).

4.4.Adjusting the push handles

• The rollator is unfolded. Activate the locking brakes.

• Turn the plastic screws on the handholds until the handles move

freely (Fig. 7).

• Position yourself behind the B+B rollator and allow your arms to

hang loosely downwards.

• Now adjust the push handles so that they are located at the height

of your wrists. Select the nearest hole in the push tube.

• Retighten the plastic screws after the adjustment procedure.

Observe the minimum insertion depth.

• Repeat this procedure on the other side.

• Check to make sure that both the push handles are at the same

height.

4.5.Adjusting / activating the brakes

Service brake

To activate the service brake, pull both handbrake levers upward on

the push handles upward (Fig. 8). Service and locking brake act on the

fixed wheels.

Locking brake

• Press down on both brake levers to activate the locking device

(Fig. 9).

• To release the locking brake pull both brake levers back into middle

position.

Adjusting the brakes

We recommend adjusting the brakes together with your mobility

dealer. If you have the necessary technical knowledge, you can do this

yourself as well.

The brake is set properly, if the brake pins do not touch the wheel and

the locking brake can be activated easily.

• Loosen the locknut (Fig. 11, arrow) so the adjustment nut can turn.

• Now turn the wide adjustment nut further inwards or outwards to

increase or decrease the braking effect.

• Retighten the locknut.

• Repeat the procedure on the other brake if necessary.

4.6.Wheels and tyres

Your rollator is equipped with flat-proof PU wheels 200 x 50 mm.

5. Use

Walking

Make your first attempts to walk with the rollator on a level, firm

surface. Familiarise yourself with the function of the brakes. Let

someone accompany you during this initial period.

For an anatomically correct gait, the push handles must be set at

proper height (see sec. 4.4.).

• Place yourself in the rollator so that your ankles are at the height of

the rear wheels.

• Stand with good posture.

• Grasp the push handles with both hands and your arms bent at a

slight angle.

When walking with the rollator try to stay as close as possible with

the body to the push handles. This increases the stability and safety

against tipping over; in addition, avoid a crooked back. Try to generally

walk in the rollator and not behind it. Take small steps and do not push

the rollator too far ahead.

You can determine the change of direction and speed by pushing

the rollator. Always use the brakes to slow down your movement. The

rollator could otherwise turn with the unbraked wheel and the braked

wheel, and could fall over.

Go around obstacles whenever possible. Try to use ramps or take lifts. If

this is not possible, the rollator must be carried over the obstacle. Find

a second person to help you do this, if possible.

The seat

The rollator is also designed to be used as a seat by the user for short

breaks. It is therefore equipped with a seating area. You must absolutely

activate the locking brakes before sitting down. The rollator could roll

away and you could fall.

Lifting points

You can lift the rollator on the grips or frame sections, in order to carry

it over obstacles or steps.
