CARE AND MAINTENANCE & YOUR OBLIGATION
1.
Only use your Aidapt Rollator for the purpose for which it intended, which is as an
aid to walking. It is intended your rollator is only used on standard pavements or at
home. It should not be used on rough terrain or pot-holed surfaces. The use of your
rollator on these surfaces can seriously compromise your safety and may damage
your rollator beyond repair.
2.
Keep your Aidapt Rollator clean by wiping down with a damp cloth with a mild
detergent. Do not under any circumstances use an abrasive or solvent based
cleaner, as this will seriously damage the rollator and void your warranty.
3.
Wipe off all surfaces with a dry cloth and use a water dispersing agent such as
WD40 on all metal joints.
4.
Check that all wheels and the folding mechanism function correctly and that all
wheels move freely. Pay particular attention to the front wheels, ensuring that they
rotate freely and without obstruction.
Withdraw your Aidapt Rollator immediately if any of the wheels become
difficult to turn or if you suspect damage or any other fault.
5.
Monthly Checks - check that the side locking levers are properly secure (Fig. 2).
Check that no components are loose. Check the adjustment to your brakes
(Fig. 16); Ensure that the brakes are correctly adjusted with 3 mm between both
tyres and brake(s), check castors.
6.
Do not fit any parts or accessories to your Aidapt Rollator manufactured by another
company. To do so will annul your warranty and may seriously compromise your
safety.
7.
We suggest that you check your Aidapt Rollator visually every day. However we
recommend that you should have your rollator serviced every three months or less
if used by, or issued to, various users. Servicing should be carried out at an
approved service station or directly by Aidapt.
