ADJUSTMENT
1. Your Aidapt Rollator brake system will require periodic adjustment. The brake
adjustment is similar to bicycle brakes.
2. Fig. 17 shows the brake handle in its
default delivered position. Should the
brakes need adjusting they can be
tightened by unlocking nut A and then
unscrewing (anti-clockwise) Nut B.
When the brake arm (see Fig. 16) has a
3 mm clearance then Nut A should be
retightened. An example of a user
adjusted brake handle is show in Fig. 18.
3. When adjusted the brakes should work
in both normal braking and in parking
mode. If needed then Nut B in Fig. 17/18
can be turned further anti-clockwise,
which will tighten the brake cable more.
Fig. 16
4. If the brake handles are fully adjusted and more tightening is required refer to
Fig. 16 and carefully release the locking screws using an allen key. Adjust the cable
to both brakes until the brake arms evenly clear the wheels by approx. 3 mm.
5. Retighten the locking screw.
6. Check the park brakes by pushing down on the brake handles, ensuring that both
brakes lock in the park position.
7. Lift the two ‘braked’ wheels off the ground and spin to ensure they turn freely. If
either of the braked wheels rubs onto the brake arm, please check for obstructions
and repeat the brake adjustment procedure above.
8. It is important that you check brake adjustments on a regular basis to take into
account wear and tear. However brake adjustment must be checked at least once a
month and definitely prior to a change of user.
