Use of the Carbon Ultralight

Unfolding

CLICK!

Folding

Height adjustment of the handles

1. To unfold the rollator, simply pull the

handles outwards.

2. Push downwards on the outer rails

of the seat in one swift motion, until

you hear a significant click from the

locking mechanism.

3. If you are in doubt whether the

folding mechanism is correctly

locked e.g. in a noisy environment,

please check that the locking hook

under the seat is properly locked

into place.

1. Lift the seat by the cut-out in

the centre to release the locking

mechanism.

2. To ensure that the rollator is

completely folded, push the handles

toward each other.

Due to ergonomically as well as safety

reasons it is important that the height

of the handles are adjusted correctly.

The correct adjustment of the handles

is very individual.

A rule of thumb is that the handles

should be level with your wrist when

standing in an upright position.

If you are in doubt, consult your

physical therapist, occupational

therapist or another specialist.

1. Press on the height adjustment

button on the frame with one hand

while pulling the handle with the

other.

2. Adjust the handle to the desired

height and release the height

adjustment button.

3. Check that the handle is locked in a

secure position by moving it up and

down and the height adjustment

button is in the locked position.

Brakes

CLICK!

Always engage both parking brakes when you sit on the seat.

Under normal circumstances both brakes should be activated

simultaneously.

Be aware that when only one brake is activated, Carbon Ultralight will turn to

the same side as the engaged brake.

Do not store with the parking brake activated as prolonged activation of

the parking brake can leave visible marks on the wheel and decrease the

braking performance.

Adjustment of the brakes

Kerb lifter

Carbon Ultralight is equipped with two

independent brakes acting on the rear

wheels.

1. Pull the brake levers upwards to

activate the brake. The lever moves

back to the neutral position when the

brake lever is released.

2. The parking brake is activated by

pressing the brake lever down until

you hear a click sound. Release the

parking brake by pulling the brake

lever back to the neutral position.

The brake should be adjusted if the

brake force applied to the wheel

is insufficient (this can occur if the

tyres are worn) or the parking brake

is difficult to activate (which is most

often seen after replacement of a worn

down tire). Always set the handle to

the desired height before the brake is

adjusted as the positon may cause a

little variation of the brake adjustment.

1. Adjust the brake with a 2mm Allen

wrench.

Insert the Allen wrench into the

adjustment screw through the hole in

the front of the brake unit.

2. The brake is tightened by turning the

adjustment screw clockwise (viewed

from the front) and loosened by

turning the adjustment screw

counter-clockwise (viewed from the

front).

Even though Carbon Ultralight is the

world's lightest walker and therefore

is easier to lift, it is equipped with a

kerb lifter that makes it easier to get

over smaller obstacles like kerbs and

low steps. This is particularly helpful

if heavy objects are transported in a

front-mounted basket or bag.

1. Carefully press on the kerb lifter with

a foot.

2. Pull sligthely by the handles to lift the

front wheels off the ground.

Be aware that the stability of

Carbon Ultralight changes when it

is reclined.

Be cautious and try to bypass

rather than climb high obstacles.
