Step 6: To Adjust the Brakes
- Use an Allen wrench to loosen the hand lever and reposition and re-
tighten to a comfortable position.
- The brake tightness can be adjusted with the nuts at either end of the
brake cable. Turning the screw clockwise will loosen the brake and
turning the screw counter clockwise will tighten it.
- Squeeze the hand brake lever and push down the parking brake lock,
and the Knee Walker will be locked.
Squeeze the hand brake lever again to release the parking brake lock.
(Figure C)
To Operate the Knee Walker:
- Place your hands on the handlebars.
- Place the injured leg comfortably resting on the center of the knee
platform.
- Release the brake to move yourself forward or backward slowly with
small steps with your other leg, keeping the knee of your injured foot
centered on the knee platform.
- The Knee Walker can make turns by simply moving the handlebars with
a minimum amount of effort. Turns should only be performed while at a
slow rate of movement. To turn right, rotate handlebars to the right. To
turn left, rotate handlebars to the left.
- With practice, you should be able to move forward without deviating to
the opposite side.
