Specifications and intended purpose
The TAiMA rollator is intended as a walking aid for persons with
impaired mobility who weigh up to 150 kg. It also provides a limited
seating function for temporary rest.
The rollator should be used only on firm, flat surfaces. It is not
intended to be used for any other purpose – in particular as a
climbing aid or to carry heavy loads. Any such use can be
dangerous!
Cleaning / maintenance / reuse
Cleaning
Clean and desinfect the rollator at regular intervals. To do so, use
mild soapy water with no scouring additives. You can disinfect the
rollator using commercially available products. Never use steam
degreasers. Never use scouring or caustic cleaning agents.
Maintenance
The TAiMA rollator requires no maintenance. If the braking function
weakens, wheel movement becomes stiff or you notice any other
functional impairment, please take the rollator to your specialist
dealer for servicing.
Reuse by third parties
If you pass on your rollator to a new user, please remember also
to hand over all the technical documentation needed to ensure
safe operation. In accordance with specifications, the rollator must
first be inspected, cleaned and returned to pristine condition by a
specialist dealer.

Safety information

Do not hang bags on the handles as this could cause the rollator
to tip over.
Use the service brake (by pulling the brake lever up) on inclines.
Only use the rollator on firm, flat surfaces.
Do not lean too heavily on the handles. Otherwise, the rollator
could tip overbackward.
Be careful not to trap your fingers or clothes when folding up the
rollator.
Upholstered parts become hot when exposed to direct sunlight
and can cause damage to the skin if you touch them. These parts
should be covered over. Alternatively, keep your rollator away from
direct sunlight.
