Evolution Scooter
Congratulations on your purchase of the KneeRover
Evolution Scooter!
The versatile KneeRover
Evolution seated scooter provides a new
®
level of freedom to users recovering from knee or leg injuries. The
large gel padded seat and convenient front leg stand allows the
patient to rest in comfort while elevating the non-weight bearing
leg. Increase your mobility without the use of painful crutches.
Operating Instructions:
This KneeRover
scooter is designed to maximize mobility during your
®
recovery from foot/ leg surgery or injury.
It is important to set the seat and handlebar at a comfortable and safe
operating position. The best position for the handlebar is approximately at
hip level, with the seat at a comfortable height for propelling the
KneeRover
scooter and resting your injured leg.
®
Ensure that the hand brake is fully engaged and locked before mounting the
KneeRover
scooter. Place your hands on the handgrips and while seated,
®
place the heel of the injured leg on the leg rest. Now release the parking
brake and propel yourself using your good leg. Allow the KneeRover
scooter to glide, and as it slows down, push again.
Safety First:
The KneeRover
Evolution 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 slow, safe, controlled speed. It is easy to tip the scooter if
you are making a turn with too much speed. Use caution and balance and
operate at your own risk.
With routine use, nuts and bolts on the steering column and brake
mechanism can and likely will become loose. Periodically check nuts and
bolts after use and re-tighten as appropriate.
