Assembly Instructions 1. Carefully remove the rollator components from the shipping carton. Refer to diagram (Figure 1) as needed. 2. Examine all parts for shipping damage. DO NOT use the rollator if there is apparent damage or if any parts (other than the bag) are missing. If there are missing or damaged parts, please call Medline Customer Care toll free at 1-800-MEDLINE. 3. Remove plastic cover from wheels. Check all of the wheels to see that they are in good working order and roll freely.
8. Insert the rear wheel assembly (Figure 6 and Figure 7) on the side facing up. Make sure that the brake shoe (M) is toward the outside of the frame. Insert one triangular knob (L) (Figure 8). Figure 7 Figure 6 Figure 8 9. Insert the handle/brake handle assembly (B and G) into the frame (Figure 9). The brake cables should be on the outside of the handlebars and frame. Ensure excess brake cable loops towards the front of the rollator. Figure 9 10.
b) Slide the washer onto the other end of the bolt with the curved side facing the frame (Figure 13) Figure 13 c) Screw on the four point knob (C) (Fig 14 and Fig 15). Figure 14 Figure 15 11. Turn the rollator onto the other side so that the wheels that were just installed are on the floor. Repeat steps 7 through 10 above for the other side. 12. Stand the rollator up so all 4 wheels are on the floor. Make sure all 4 wheels are contacting the floor. 13.
14. Adjust the height of the handlebars (B) for proper fit. To determine proper height, stand upright behind the rollator with shoulders relaxed, arms hanging at your side and eyes looking straight ahead. Standing in this position, the handgrips (A) of the rollator should be adjusted to a height even with the wrists. This will position the arms at an approximate 20º to 30º bend when using the rollator. See Figure 16. You will have to remove the four point knob (C) to adjust the height of the handles.
Adjustment of Brakes: (There are 2 adjustments for each brake – one at the handle and one at the brake): When adjusting the brakes on the rollator, keep in mind if you adjust it too far one way or the other, the lock will not function properly. Please test thoroughly and tighten all parts completely prior to using rollator. 1. At the top of the rollator, find the adjustment nut which is located where the cable goes into the brake handle. This part is usually silver.
