Brakes.
The brakes are a specially designed and essential function of your Active rolla-
tor. There are no exposed brake cables, and the patented system is both safer
and requires less maintenance than other solutions.
To use the brakes, simply squeeze the brake lever up towards the handle.
Only a light pull is required, and the brakes can easily be modulated with vary-
ing resistance.
To lock the brakes (and to activate the parking brakes), simply push the brake
lever down until it locks.
To unlock the brakes, pull up on the brake lever, and it will snap back to the
neutral position.
Brake maintenance.
Adjustment of the brakes should be checked before
using the Active rollator. Periodic checks should be
made on the brake functions to keep them in optimal
working condition due to normal wear on brake and
tyre parts during usage.
There is a convenient adjustment screw (hex head)
located in the rear leg profile (see picture to right).
Adjust the screw so that the brake arm is 3mm from
the tyre. Turning the screw in (to the right) tightens
the brakes, and turning the screw out (to the left) loosens the brake arm.
