Tips for use

Adjust the brake on the RA for 

correct functionality

The braking effect can be set using the cable adjuster 

under the frame and/or on the brake handle.

1.   Release/slacken the parking brake.

2.   Loosen the nut in the middle with a 8 mm span-

ner. 

3.   Screw out the threaded, long, hexagonal shaft to 

increase the braking effect. Screw in the threaded, 

long, hexagonal shaft to decrease the braking effect. 

4.   Tighten the nut in the middle with a 8 mm span-

ner. You should adjust the brake so the brake pad 

is approx. 1-2 mm from the wear track without it 

"catching on the wear track". If you adjust the brake 

too hard, activating the parking brake will be unnec-

essarily hard.

Learn the "scissors technique"

Approach the obstruction at an angle. Apply the 

brake on the wheel closest to the obstruction. Tilt the 

rollator slightly backwards, so the front wheels lift 

up, swing the front wheels over the obstruction. It is 

easy once you have learned how! 

Comfort Frame

The RA is built with a Comfort Frame™, which 

means that it passes smoothly over uneven surfaces. 

When you need to pass over a larger obstruction or 

mount a pavement edge, you can get help from the 

tilting peddle by the rear wheels. Press down one 

of the peddles at the same time as you lift using the 

handles.

When walking over an obstruction, don't  

lift the rollator by the seat since this  

could cause it to fold!
