1.2 INTENDED PURPOSE
The TOMTAR G-2E walking frame is intended for
use by persons with restricted mobility weighing
up to 130 kg. Its purpose is to provide additional
support and stability while standing and walking
(one step at a time) and when learning to walk
again. It is to be used when other walking aids
are not sufficient.
It is only to be used in enclosed spaces without
any steps and on a firm, level walking surface.
It is height adjustable and lightweight.
It is also preconfigured with two settings
so that you can use it as either a rigid or a
reciprocal walking frame (“reciprocal” means
that each side of the frame moves alternately).
It can be used both at home and in hospitals.
The walking aid is not suitable for children or for
anyone who is less than 155 cm tall.
If you have a custom-made device it will have
been labelled as such. In this case, the intended
purpose may differ from the one specified in this
manual and you should refer to the documenta
-
tion supplied with the product.

cated for:
t

the active or passive musculoskeletal
