Maintenance
WArnInG!
do not use the rollator when the tyres, brakes or frame appear to be damaged!
Brakes
1. Check the brakes before each use to make sure they still work. If they are not working,
do not attempt to repair them yourself. Contact your dealer or service centre.
2. Check the brake cables for tears or kinks.
3. Calibrate: Set the distance between the brake pads and the wheel to approximately 2mm.
Release the counter nut and adjust the brake cable with the adjuster screw and
then re-tighten the counter nut (fig.24).

Do not use the Rollator if this damage is apparent.
