5.3 Negotiating kerbs
Risk of falling

holding both
handgrips.

push on tipping lever
(23) to lift the front
wheels.

that position with the
handgrips and move slowly forward until
the front wheels are on the kerb.

to place the rear wheels on the kerb.
5. When the rollator is standing stable, you
can take the kerb yourself.

until you start walking again. Keep your
feet between the rear wheels.
1. Push both brake levers down to parking
position.
2. Check whether the backrest and seat are
turned down and secured into place.
