Please grab the handle a shown in the picture.It is important to understand that
one of the main advantages of the Tucane® cane system is the fact that it pro-
motes an adequate stand during gait or walking. Please stand straight
with the shoulders at the same height.
Please grab the handle a shown in the picture.
The handle must be close to your hip, as shown on the picture.
With the Tucane® in the right position, please flex the index fingers as shown in
the picture. Please do not press the other fingers or the hand over the handle. Do
not pull or raise the Tucane®. Keep your arms in a 20 to 30 degree angle.
When the user starts walking, the leg that moves first should be the one in the
same side of the body as the Tucane®. The cane has an automatic spring system
on the handle that pushes the cane forward as the user walks, without much
force. The cane will advance with the user’s limb by just lifting it from the ground
and releasing the pressure on the handle. (Remember: the Tucane® should always
be next to the hip.) Repeat the cycle and remember to stand straight while looking
forward, not to the floor. Avoid sliding your feet over the ground while you
move forward.
