How to use Drive Aluminum Crutches?
For maximum fit and assembly, see instructions below:
- Height: Adjust height by pressing both push-buttons, rotating foot-piece, and pulling down until desired patient height is obtained. To help in doing this, the foot-piece has a circular ring marked to indicate location of push-button. Rotate foot-piece again until both push buttons snap back into place.
- Handgrip: Adjust handgrip to fit an approximate 10” bend at patient elbow.
- Safety Check: With crutches positioned per diagram below, confirm patient can lean forward comfortably while resting on the underarm supports. Patient should not have to stand uncomfortably erect. Ensure both push-buttons are firmly in place and handgrip nuts are tightened securely.
CAUTIONS:
- Use after proper training under the direction of your doctor or physical therapist.
- Replace crutch tips if worn.
- Keep hand grip wing nut tightened.
- Use extra caution on wet and slippery surfaces.
