Congratulations on your purchase of the KneeRover
®
Economy Knee Scooter!
The KneeRover Economy Knee Scooter provides a more reliable and
®
comfortable alternative to crutches for patients needing an effective
mobility solution at an affordable price.

Operating Instructions:

This medical device is designed to maximize mobility during your recovery
from foot/ankle surgery or injury.
Place the knee of your injured leg on the knee platform and stand as
straight as possible. Adjust the handlebar to waist height so the arms and
hands are in a comfortable position. Adjust the knee platform so that your
injured leg is supported at a 90 degree angle when standing.
Ensure that the hand brake is fully engaged before mounting the
KneeRover scooter. To move the scooter, simply push forwards or
®
backwards with your good foot. Allow the scooter to glide, and as it slows
down, push again.
Safety First:
The KneeRover ® scooter is designed for easy steering and stopping and
should be used to carefully move about at slow, controlled speeds. When
turning the scooter you should have the brake applied and be moving at a

turn with too much speed. Use caution and balance and operate at your
