SERVICING/MAINTENANCE

We recommend performing the inspections listed in the maintenance schedule at regular intervals 
to ensure that the rollator is always safe to use.

Defective or neglected care and maintenance of the rollator limits liability. The maintenance schedule 
does not give any information concerning the amount of work actually required on the rollator. 

 

 

 

WARNING

 

Safety hazard! 

Repairs on the rollator must 

only be performed by specialist shops using 
DIETZ original spare parts to maintain the 
operational safety of the rollator. The relevant 
spare parts catalogue can be found on our 
website in the information of the product in 
question. 

 

 

 

 

NOTE

The inspections and measures stipulated in the 
maintenance  schedule  must  be  performed  by 
the user or assistant if not otherwise stated. 

 

 

 

 

NOTE 

As the user, you will be the first to notice 
possible damage. If you notice a fault as 
described in the maintenance schedule or 
further defects and functional impairments, 
contact an authorised specialist dealer 
immediately. 

 

 

 

 

NOTE FOR SPECIALIST DEALERS

If  the  user  indicates  abnormalities  on  the 
rollator, check all the inspection points listed in 
the  maintenance  schedule  on  the  rollator. The 
checks must also be performed before putting 
the rollator back into operation and after longer 
storage periods (> 4 months).
