SAFETY SUMMARY
To ensure the safe installation of the Wheeled Walker Accessories, these
instructions MUST be followed:
GENERAL WARNINGS
DO NOT install or use this equipment without first reading and understanding these
instructions. If you are unable to understand the Warnings, Cautions or Instructions,
contact a healthcare professional, dealer or technical personnel before attempting to
install this equipment - otherwise, injury or damage may occur.
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.
Rear leg extensions with rubber tips or plastic glide tips MUST be in contact
with floor surface at all times.
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 outdoors.
Glide tips are NOT recommended for use on all four (4) 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.
INSTALLATION WARNINGS
Ensure all snap buttons fully protrude through adjustment holes of each leg
extension. This ensures that the leg extensions are securely locked in position.
Wheel Accessories are ONLY to be used on the front walker legs with
exception of Model No. 6265E - 13-Inch Rear Wheel Brakes.
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 (1) inch lower than the front.
