CAUTION
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ACCIDENT:
- Before using the Knee Walker, you should be
trained by a healthcare professional or dealer.
- Engage the lock and practice bending,
reaching and transfers on and off the Knee
Walker. DO NOT use the Knee Walker by
yourself until you have been properly trained,
you have practiced with someone and you feel
confident you can maneuver by yourself.
- The use of the Knee Walker is individual to the
person. You should develop your own methods
for use based on your personal level of function
and ability.
- NEVER aempt a maneuver that has not been
practiced.
- Be aware of your surroundings when operating
the Knee Walker. Look for hazards and
avoid them.
- Placement of injured leg on pad should be
centered side to side and positioned forward to
cover the full length of pad.
- With injured leg on pad, stand as straight as
possible (adjust the height of the Knee Walker
as necessary).
- With injured foot pointing down, the propulsion leg
should be maintained as close as possible to the
pad.
- While on your toes, start out with small steps with
propulsion leg. Concentrate on keeping that leg next
to the pad. With practice, you should be able to
move forward without deviating to the opposite side.
operating the knee walker
The Drive Knee Walker is a mobility device that provides
strength and comfort to anyone who may have an injury
below the knee. It allows an even distribution of body
weight by supporting half of the weight on the device
and the other half on the non-injured leg. The device
has a cushioned platform to support both the injured leg
and ankle to make certain that no weight will be placed
on the lower leg.
The device is designed for easy steering and stopping.
Brakes are also featured on this device for controlled
movement and safety.
