Instructions for use

AirTraveler™ Walker

Pneumatic Stirrup Walker

1. Open the Velcro straps, remove the inner shoe of the walker and take out

the hexagonal foam pad. (Figure 1)

2. Place the inner shoe around the leg and fasten it with the Velcro straps.

(Figure 2)

3. To enter the walker safely, spread the medial and lateral splints using both

hands. (Figure 3)

4. After entry, remove the white protective strips on the inside of the splint

and fix the splint to the inner shoe. Now fasten the Velcro straps, starting

with the straps close to the ankle. Ensure that the leg is comfortable in the

walker. (Figure 4)

5. Remove the black pump on the back of the walker.

6. Now pump air through the valve on the back of the walker into the air

chambers of the inner shoe. Use the transparent end of the pump

(Figure 5). The air is distributed evenly. The degree of compression should

ensure that neither the foot nor the ankle can move freely. The inner

shoe of the walker should provide adequate protection for the foot and

ankle.

S hould impaired sensation, swelling or pain occur, the pressure should be

reduced by releasing air from the chambers. Use the black end of the pump

(Figure A). Should persistent pain occur, the treatment should be inter-

rupted and a physician should be consulted.

Optional: Insertion of the foam pad (supplied as an accessory):

The four hexagonal pads (Figure B) are used to immobilise and pad the

ankle, thus allowing individual fitting. Place pads in areas where friction

needs to be reduced or excessive space needs to be filled.
