A. Assembly Instructions

1) Open the box and take out the

U- tep 2 from the box.

2) Cut any plastic ties and remove

packing material used for protecting

the walker in shipping.

3) Release the locking clip.

Then, press the seat down until it

snaps into place. (Below)

5) Adjusting the Handlebars to the

proper height. Generally, the handle-

bars are adjusted so that the handles

are 2-3 inches above your palm when

your arm rests at your side.

a. Loosen the height adjustment

knobs on both the left and right

about two turns.

4) Pull up the handle bars until the seat becomes perpendicular

to the ground. (Below left)

6) Installing the Backrest —

lide the backrest into the

holes on the base and press

in the spring-loaded pins

until the backrest slides in

and snaps into place.

b. Press in the height adjust-

ment button and pull up on the

handle bar until the handle bars

are the appropriate height.

c. Re-tighten the height adjust-

ment knobs with enough force

that the handle bars do not

wiggle.

B. Braking

The U- tep 2 wheels will not

roll until you disengage the

brakes. queeze either or both

hand brake levers to disengage

the brakes. To stop, release the

hand brake levers and the

brakes will quickly engage.

1) Not everyone needs to adjust the tension control to be safe.

However, if you feel that the U- tep 2 rolls too easily for you, use

the tension control to add resistance. Place your U- tep 2 on

the surface where you walk most often. You will need more ten-

sion on a smooth surface

such as flooring than you

will on carpet.

C. Tension Control Adjustment (Optional)

3) The Tension Control

Lever is initially set to Low

(L). Push the Tension Control Lever forward (toward the H) to in-

crease the tension. Re-tighten the tension locking bolt making

sure the lever settles into one of the set holes.

Note: If you do not position the lever in a set hole, the tension

lever might rub against the side of the gray wheel.

4) Remember to squeeze one of the hand brakes while testing

the walker. Test the rolling speed of the walker; if you need more

or less resistance, adjust accordingly.

E. Walking Over Obstacles

The U- tep 2 has a patented

spring-loaded front caster

that enables it to roll over

obstacles, such as door

molding strips and cracks in

the sidewalk. It will help you

ride over obstacles as high as

one half-inch.

D. Sitting Down

To sit down, you can either

turn around while holding

the handlebar or pivot the

U- tep 2 around so that it

is positioned behind you,

then sit down on the seat.

When you are sitting on the

U- tep 2 you are facing

backwards relative to the

forward moving direction

when walking.

WARNING:

While sitting, DO NOT push off with

your feet to move the U- tep 2. This is unsafe.

2) Reach down and pull

up on the horizontal bar

that has a sticker on it

reading “Lift Here to

Fold” until the U- tep 2

folds up.

Release Lever

1) With the U- tep 2 in

front of you, raise the

release lever in front of

the seat and tilt the

seat upward.

F. Transporting Your -Step 2

— 8 —

G. Setup After Transporting

It is very important to press the

seat down until the Release Lever fully snaps into place.

1) Release the locking clip holding

the U- tep 2 in the folded position.

2) Allow the U- tep 2 to open –

with the base on the ground.

3) Press the seat down in the

middle until the Release Lever

snaps into place.

3) ecure the locking clip to

stop the walker from folding.

imply rotate the clip until it at-

taches to the backrest tube.

4) Hold the U- tep 2

by the side to place it

into your vehicle.

SAFETY NOTE:

1) Laser and Sound Cueing Module — Operating the Unit

The module primarily helps those with Parkinson’s freezing but

also helps anyone with an irregular gait pattern. The Laser and

ound Cueing Module can help you get started, normalize your

walking, and increase your stride.

To activate the Laser Cueing function, press the red button on

the unit attached to the right handlebar. You should hear a series

of clicks and see the red power indicator light blinking. A bright

red laser line will appear on the floor to guide your steps.

In this mode, without

ound Cueing acti-

vated, the upper black

button adjusts the time

period before auto-

matic laser shutoff to

conserve battery

power, and the lower

black button adjusts

the clicking volume.

Pressing the upper

button extends the

shutoff period from 4 to 28 minutes in increments of 4 minutes;

each click that sounds after pressing the button indicates 4 min-

utes of operating time in effect (from 1 to 7 clicks). Pressing the

lower button lowers the click volume in steps to the softest set-

ting, then recycling to the loudest setting.

To activate ound Cueing, press and hold the top black button

in for a few seconds until you hear a steady clicking. In this

mode, the two black buttons increase or decrease the cadence

(speed) with each brief press. The cadence varies from 59 to 130

beats per minute over 15 increments.

The ound Cueing only operates while the Laser Cueing is on.

H. Optional Accessories

2) Weights —

Although the U- tep 2 is very stable, we do offer weights as an

accessory to increase the

stability of the walker.

These weights easily se-

cure to the base of

the U- tep 2 using

Velcro straps

Use either alkaline or lithium

“AA” batteries. Remove the

small screw holding the bat-

tery cover on (Figure 1) and

slide the cover to the left to

remove it. Note the position

of the two batteries (Figure

2), ensuring that the the “+”

and “–” sides are installed in

opposite directions. The unit

will click either three or five

times when the batteries are

installed correctly. If the unit

clicks three times, it is shut-

ting off. If the unit clicks five

times, it is turning on and the

power indicator will blink.

Installing and Replacing the Cueing Module Batteries —

Figure 1

Figure 2

When ound Cueing is activated, both the sound and laser re-

main on indefinitely. Turning the ound Cueing off requires shut-

ting the entire module off, by pressing the red button.
