Using your rollator

5.1 Brake system
CAUTION
Check the working of the brakes to ensure
your safety. The condition of the brakes is
influenced by wear,
contamination of the rear wheels and
braking mechanism.

by two brake levers (7). The brake levers
operate in two modes: running brakes and
parking brakes.

damage to the tyres or brakes.

levers (7) simultaneously upwards [A] in a
squeezing motion. To

brake levers (7) downwards in locked
