Maintenance Tips
- Wipe aluminum frame and forearm cuff regularly with mild soap and water; dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion.
- Inspect rubber tip (ferrule) frequently for wear, cracks, or smoothness; replace immediately if traction is reduced.
- Check height-adjustment pins and locking mechanisms to ensure secure engagement before each use.
- Tighten screws, bolts, and cuff attachments periodically to maintain structural stability.
- Examine forearm cuff and handgrip for tears, looseness, or padding wear and replace if damaged.
- Keep adjustment holes and locking areas free from dirt and debris for smooth operation.
- Avoid exposure to excessive moisture or salt, which may accelerate metal wear.
- Do not exceed weight capacity or use on uneven surfaces that may stress the frame.
- Store in a dry, upright position away from direct sunlight and heat sources.
- Perform routine safety checks, especially after impact or heavy use, to ensure safe mobility support.
