Length Adjustment

When the crutch length is correct the user

should be able to maintain an upright

posture with the elbow slightly flexed.

In this way body weight is taken through

the crutch by pushing down on the crutch

when walking.

To adjust a crutch fitted with a pin clip, press the

two buttons in. Push the leg in and turn slightly.

Adjust the leg to the required position, then turn

and relocate, ensuring buttons are protruding

through the holes.

Usage

Walking

Where the affected leg cannot take any weight keep it off the

ground by holding it somewhat in front with the knee slightly bent

with arms through cuffs and gripping handles. Move the crutches

one pace forward, slightly apart and level then move the body

forwards between the crutches allowing the unaffected leg to

swing through.

SAFE USE OF CRUTCHES BEFORE USE

Please ensure there is no sign of wear and damage.

Please ensure the user does not exceed the max user weight stated.

Where the affected leg can take some weight move the crutches

one pace forward then place the affected leg on the ground with

the crutches, which will support some of the body weight.

Step through with the unaffected leg.

Getting up and sitting down

The crutch should be near the chair or held in one arm. Lean

forward, push up on one crutch and the opposite arm of the chair

to assist in standing. Once standing up ensure the arm is secure

inside the cuff.

When returning to the chair, turn round, feel the chair behind the

legs. Remove both arms from the crutches, hold them in one hand

or place them near the chair. Place hand(s) gently on the chair

arms, bend forward and lower gently into the chair.

Walking up and down stairs

Hold onto a handrail if at all possible. Hold the spare crutch

together with the handle of the remaining crutch. The crutch goes

on the same step as the affected leg. The unaffected leg should

lead when going upstairs, and the affected leg leads when

coming down.
