2. Extend the rollator fully , and check that the side bars are straight and level.
Carefully insert the brake assembly with pre-punched extension tube (Fig. 3) within
the frame.
3. At the required height (there are several holes) insert the fixing screw through the
hexagonal hole in the frame, and pass through the hole in the handlebar tube,
place the curved plastic washer over the end of the screw, with the curved side
facing the tube. Fix the screw in place with the locking handwheel (Fig. 3b).
4. Make sure that the handwheel is tightened sufficiently so that the brake tubes will
not move accidentally.
5. After setting the height, check that both brakes are even in height and that the
rollator is sitting even onto the ground.
6. Fix the brake cables into the integral brake cable ‘U’ clip welded onto the frame if
not already assembled (Fig. 3a).
7. Prior to use make sure brakes are adjusted correctly and working properly. See
section ‘OPERATING THE BRAKES’ and ‘ADJUSTMENT’.

OPERATING THE BRAKES
The handbrake on your Aidapt Rollator works very similar to a bicycle hand brake:
1. To stop, gently apply a gripping pressure to both brakes simultaneously (Fig. 10),
this will slow down and stop your rollator.
2. The brakes on your Aidapt Rollator have a park option (Fig. 11). To operate the park
option, push downwards on both brakes simultaneously. ou will feel the brake
make a very slight click. our brakes are now in the ‘lock’ position.
3. To unlock, simply pull up the brake again, you will hear a slight click as the ‘park’
disengages.
Fig. 10 Fig. 11
STORAGE
1. Grip the side bar and lift (Fig. 12).
2. Continue lifting until the rollator fully closes (Fig. 13).
3. ou may also wish to remove the half-round back for storage; to do so pull the
silver coloured locking buttons located on either side of the tube lock outwards
(Fig. 14), then lift up the back to detach (Fig. 15).

ADJUSTMENT
1. our Aidapt Rollator brake system will require periodic adjustment. The brake
adjustment is similar to bicycle brakes.
2. Fig. 17 shows the brake handle in its
default delivered position. Should the
brakes need adjusting they can be
tightened by unlocking nut A and then
unscrewing (anti-clockwise) Nut B.
When the brake arm (see Fig. 16) has a
3 mm clearance then Nut A should be
retightened. An example of a user
adjusted brake handle is show in Fig. 18.
3. When adjusted the brakes should work
in both normal braking and in parking
mode. If needed then Nut B in Fig. 17/18
can be turned further anti-clockwise,
which will tighten the brake cable more.
Fig. 6
4. If the brake handles are fully adjusted and more tightening is required refer to
Fig. 16 and carefully release the locking screws using an allen key. Adjust the cable
to both brakes until the brake arms evenly clear the wheels by approx. 3 mm.
5. Retighten the locking screw.
6. Check the park brakes by pushing down on the brake handles, ensuring that both
brakes lock in the park position.
7. Lift the two ‘braked’ wheels off the ground and spin to ensure they turn freely. If
either of the braked wheels rubs onto the brake arm, please check for obstructions
and repeat the brake adjustment procedure above.
8. It is important that you check brake adjustments on a regular basis to take into
account wear and tear. However brake adjustment must be checked at least once a
month and definitely prior to a change of user.

aid to walking. It is intended your rollator is only used on standard pavements or at

WD40 on all metal joints.

wheels move freely. Pay particular attention to the front wheels, ensuring that they
rotate freely and without obstruction.
Withdraw your Aidapt Rollator immediately if any of the wheels become
difficult to turn or if you suspect damage or any other fault.
5. Monthly Checks - check that the side locking levers are properly secure (Fig. 2).
Check that no components are loose. Check the adjustment to your brakes
(Fig. 16); Ensure that the brakes are correctly adjusted with 3 mm between both
tyres and brake(s), check castors.
