Installation Warnings - Invacare 6291-A Manual

STABILITY WARNINGS (CONTINUED)
Invacare Walkers can provide ambulatory assistance for an
individual weighing up to 300 lbs. (136 kg.) for Single-Release
(6281 Models), Paddle (6291 Models) and Blue-Release™(6241
Models) Walkers, and 500 lbs. (226 kg.) for the Heavy Duty
Walker (6291-HDA Model).
Invacare Walkers are designed to provide support, increased
stability and assistance to an individual while walking; it is not
intended to support the full weight of the user.
FOLDING/ASSEMBLY WARNINGS
After unfolding or assembling walker, ensure walker is securely
locked in OPEN position and level to the ground BEFORE using.
DO NOT hang anything on the front of the Blue-Release Walker.
This may depress the release mechanisms and prevent walker
from locking into place when fully opened.
DO NOT hang anything on either the left or right side frames
(area that includes dual-release paddles) or the left and right
slide tubes (area that includes palm release button). This will
cause side frames or slide tubes to bend downward and prevent
walker from locking into place when fully opened. This may also
cause walker to tip, resulting in injury or damage.

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.
Wheeled Accessories, if used, are ONLY to be used on the front
walker legs with the exception of Model Nos. 6264 - 10-inch Rear
Wheel Brakes and 6265 - 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.
Always test to see that the walker and attachments are properly
and securely locked in place BEFORE using.
