ADJUSTMENTS Stanchions Warning! Do not carry out this adjustment while a user is placed in Meywalk®4. The height of Meywalk®4 is adjusted by way of the black spanner grips. Loosen the spanner grips on both sides and adjust the frame to the desired height. Fasten the spanner grips firmly. - Page 11 Seat Warning! Do not carry out this adjustment while a user is placed in Meywalk®4. Adjust the seat height according to the length of the user’s legs. Turn the lower thumb screw located at the front of Meywalk®4.

- Page 12 Tilt function Warning! Do not carry out this adjustment while a user is placed in Meywalk®4. By means of the tilt function the user’s posture can be changed. Turn the middle thumb screw to tilt the support. The thumb screw is located at the front of Meywalk®4.
- Page 13 Rear stop The rear stop should always be closed in the upright position when there is a user in Meywalk®4. Pull the rear stop backwards out of the seat and turn it upwards. Now you can push it down into the locked position. Repeat the procedure in reverse order to open the rear stop again.
- Page 14 Brakes The brakes are parking brakes that work by directly blocking the rear wheels with a braking pulley pressing against the tyre. To brake the walking aid, pull the brake levers away from the frame until they come to a definite stop. In this position the brakes are self-locking and it should not be possible to push the walker.
- Page 15 Anti-tip support Anti-tip supports are mounted on each side by first removing the bolts fixing the wheels. Use a 6mm Allen key. Place the anti-tip support against the outside of the rear fork of Meywalk®4 so that they fall into place in the two rear fork recesses. Screw bolts on both sides back on. Re-tighten firmly.
- Page 16 Trunk pad The trunk pad is mounted on the black polyurethane shell of the center box. First remove the screws and washers from the shell. Then mount the trunk pad using the screws that came with the trunk pad. Hip pads The hip-/side pads are to be mounted on the uprights.
- Page 17 Height reductions set Each reduction set consists of 1 pair of 4 units – 2 x special fittings, 2 x threaded rod, 2 x bushing and 2 x Allen screw head (see right). The height reductions set is unavailable for the Mini model.
