Use
Only use the gait trainer for the intended purpose.

Before using it, make sure that all parts of the gait trainer are securely fastened.

The gait trainer may only be used under supervision. The wheels roll very easily, so it is
important to be aware of the surroundings and any dangers that the user may encounter.

The tilt bar must always be raised and lowered by hand - avoid stepping on the tilt bar.

A tilting bar raises and lowers the gait trainer when getting in and out. Be prepared for an
upward force that grows gradually as the tilt bar raises. Never let go of the tilt bar in the
middle of a raising or lowering movement, as it can injure the user and helper.

Only use the gait trainer on solid surfaces. Avoid using it on sloping, uneven, loose, wet
or icy surfaces, or on surfaces with level differences, as it may cause tipping risk.
Use
The spring system can pose a risk if the gait trainer is used by a very restless user. The
VELA Miniwalk must never be used without springs.
Use
Do not use the gait trainer during adjustments, to avoid pinches from moving parts.

The VELA Miniwalk and its accessories are designed for your safety. Removing parts of
the equipment can result in open pipe ends that can be sharp and cause damage. These
open pipe ends must be closed with plastic plugs - do not touch open pipe ends with
fingers or other body parts.
