ƽ WARNING
DO NOT use this product or any available optional equipment without first
completely reading and understanding these instructions and any additional
instructional material such as owner’s manuals, service manuals or instruction
sheets supplied with this product or optional equipment. If you are unable to
understand the warnings, cautions or instructions, contact a healthcare professional,
dealer or technical personnel before attempting to use this equipment - otherwise,
injury or damage may occur.
ƽ STABILITY WARNINGS
Check to make sure that rubber tips and/or plastic glide tips are not ripped, worn or
missing. Replace them before using the walker.
DO NOT use rubber tips on front leg extensions when using rear wheel/brake options.
When using rear leg extension with rubber tips or glide tips, all four legs MUST be
placed on the floor for stability/support. DO NOT use only the two rear legs for
stability/support.
Glide tips are not recommended for use on rough surfaces including surfaces that
may be experienced outdoors.
Glide tips are used on rear leg extensions ONLY to allow the walker to roll easily
over indoor carpeted areas without the need to lift the walker off the ground.
Glide tips on rear leg extensions should only be used with front wheel attachments.
Glide tips are NOT recommended for use on all four leg extensions at once.
DO NOT use glide tips and rubber tips at the same time.
Glide tips do not grip the floor the way rubber tips grip flooring, therefore, extra
caution should be observed when in use.
When using glide tips on a walker, short steps should be taken to assure that weight
is distributed evenly and directly over walker legs. These precautions will prevent
uncontrollable movement of the walker.
ƽ INSTALLATION WARNING
Ensure all snap buttons fully protrude through adjustment holes of each leg
extension. This ensures that the leg extensions are securely locked in position.
The leg extensions should be adjusted so the walker is level. If an even height cannot
be achieved, adjust the leg extensions so that the rear of the walker is no more than
one inch lower than the front.
After installation, ensure that the walker and accessories are properly and securely
locked in place and hardware tightened securely before using.
Wheel Accessories are ONLY to be used on the front walker legs with exception of
Model No(s). 6264, 6264P - 10 inch Rear Wheel Brakes and 6265, 6265P - 13 inch
Rear Wheel Brakes.
