The Rollator loop lock handle has been designed for operating the loop locks of a Rollator or walker and incorporates two functions: operating of normal loop lock and operating the parking loop lock. Normal loop lock will be used during walking, e.g. as help to make a corner. The parking loop lock function will be used at a standstill, e.g. to keep the Rollator at its place, when using the seat to sit down. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE LOOP LOCK HANDLE ARE: 1. Normal loop lock function 2. Parking loop lock function 3. Operation of the normal loop lock and operation of parking loop lock are fully separated, to avoid misunderstandings.
loop lock This new generation loop lock handle has been designed to offer maximum comfort and safety. Two functions are incorporated: a normal loop lock and a parking loop lock. Those functions are fully separated, to avoid misunderstandings. Contact areas are wide, to limit pressure on the fingers. Normal loop lock function may be applied, while walking with the Rollator, e.g. as a help to make a corner, or as a help to get up or off the side walk. Activating the Locks is performed by pulling the loop lock handle up, similar to operating the brakes of a bicycle. The parking loop lock will be applied at standstill. When the user wants to sit down on the seat, the parking loop lock must be applied first, for safety reasons. If the user has to reach away from the Rollator, e.g. for taking something from the self in a shop, it will be safe to apply the parking loop lock first. The way of activating the parking loop lock is by pushing the handle down. This way is convenient for people who cannot easily pinch the handle, because of certain disabilities of their hands. Releasing the parking loop lock can be done by moving the handle up. For operation the parking loop lock, the loop lock handle is provided with a wider section at the end.
NORMAL LOOP LOCK Release the parking loop lock by pulling the handle UP. The handle will return to its basic position; the parking loop lock is OFF.
Normal loop lock is activated by pulling the handle UP, similar to operating the brakes of a bicycle. Once the handle is released, the lock will release as well.
PARKING LOOP LOCK
maintenance Keep the loop lock handle free from dirt etc. to keep it operating properly. In case the loop locks are locking too little, the cable might be too loose. The cable can be adjusted by means of the adjuster screw, located where the cable is connected to the loop lock handle. If the loop lock cable wire is broken, it has to be replaced. CAUTION: Don’t use the loop lock handle for other functions than locking a Rollator or walker. Take care that the loop lock handle is in good condition, fully assembled (no loose parts) and fixed, for safety reasons. Please read all cautions and warning labels before using this Rollator. This unit is designed to be used as a mobility aid, creating a natural gate as the user walks securely with their primary weight distribution between the handlebars with the unit in front of the user. If the Rollator has a seat, always engage the locking mechanism on the loop lock before using the seat. At no time can this unit be used to transport individuals while seated for risk of bodily injury.
