Users Manual Specifications and intended purpose
The TAiMA rollator is intended as a walking aid for persons
with impaired mobility who weigh up to 150 kg. It also
provides a limited seating function for temporary rest.
The rollator should be used only on firm, flat surfaces. It is not
intended to be used for any other purpose – in particular as a
climbing aid or to carry heavy loads. Any such use can be
dangerous!
Safety information
Do not hang bags on the handles as this could cause the
rollator to tip over.
Use the service brake (by pulling the brake lever up) on inclines.
Only use the rollator on firm, flat surfaces.
Do not lean too heavily on the handles. Otherwise, the rollator
could tip over backwards.
Be careful not to trap your fingers or clothes when folding up
the rollator.
Upholstered parts become hot when exposed to direct sunlight
and can cause damage to the skin if you touch them. These
parts should be covered over. Alternatively, keep your rollator
away from direct sunlight.
Before using your rollator, make sure the locking pin is
correctly engaged and the rollator can not fold up randomly.
Always lock both brakes before sitting on your rollator.
The maximum load for the shopping bag is 5kg.
