1.1. WARNINGS

Use Only use original spare parts from VELA.

Use Do not make any changes to the accessories that come with the gait trainer.

Use Only use the gait trainer for the intended purpose.

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

Use 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.

Use Always activate the brake before you enter or exit the gait trainer.

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

Use On the sizes: Small, Medium and Large, there is a tilting bar that raises and lowers the

gait trainer when getting in and out. Be prepared for an upward force that grows gradu-

ally 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.

Use Only use the gait trainer on solid surfaces. Avoid using it on sloping, uneven, loose, wet

or icy surfaces, or on surfaces with level dierences, 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. VELA

Meywalk 4 must never be used without springs.

Use Do not use the gait trainer during adjustments, to avoid pinches from moving parts.

Use VELA Meywalk 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.
