Setting Handgrip Angle - LifeWalker Mobility Products Upwalker User Manual

5. The UPWalker includes a convenient
height adjustment memory stop on the
bottom of each height adjustment tube
(Fig B3). After you have established your
preferred height setting, unlock the height
adjustment memory stop using the gray
knob, turning it in a counterclockwise
direction. Slide the memory stop up to the frame and
relock in place by turning the gray knob in a clockwise direction until
tight. Once set you may raise an armrest from a lowered position until
the memory stop is reached. The memory stop does not need to be
moved again unless a different armrest
height is required.
C. Setting Handgrip Angle
1. To set the handgrip at the desired
angle, open the chrome cam lever under
the armrest pad and swivel the handgrip
to the preferred position (Fig C1).
2. There are three suggested handgrip
positions – horizontal (Fig C2), vertical (Fig
C3) or 45 degrees (Fig C4) (where you will
feel a slight "stop" as you swivel the
handgrips). The handgrip angles can be set at
other angles, if that suits the user.
3. Once the preferred angle is established,
close the chrome cam lever firmly to secure
the handgrip in place (Fig C6). The tightness
of the cam lever can be adjusted by turning
the cam lever nut on the outer side of the
armrest.
