Use Do not make any changes to the accessories that come with the gait trainer.

Use Only use the gait trainer for the intended purpose.

Use Before using it, make sure that all parts of the gait trainer are securely fastened.

Use The gait trainer may only be used under supervision. The wheels roll very easily, so it is

Use Always activate the brake before you enter or exit the gait trainer.

Use The tilt bar must always be raised and lowered by hand - avoid stepping on the tilt bar.

Use On the sizes: Small, Medium and Large, there is a tilting bar that raises and lowers the

gait trainer when getting in and out. Be prepared for an upward force that grows gradu-

ally as the tilt bar raises. Never let go of the tilt bar in the middle of a raising or lowering

movement, as it can injure the user and helper.

Use Only use the gait trainer on solid surfaces. Avoid using it on sloping, uneven, loose, wet

or icy surfaces, or on surfaces with level dierences, as it may cause tipping risk.

Use The spring system can pose a risk if the gait trainer is used by a very restless user. VELA

Meywalk 4 must never be used without springs.

Use Do not use the gait trainer during adjustments, to avoid pinches from moving parts.

Use VELA Meywalk and its accessories are designed for your safety. Removing parts of the

equipment can result in open pipe ends that can be sharp and cause damage. These

open pipe ends must be closed with plastic plugs - do not touch open pipe ends with

ﬁngers or other body parts.

Use Maintenance other than cleaning should always be performed by a professional.

Use Never service the gait trainer while in use

2.0.3. ASSEMBLY AND REPLACEMENT OF SPRINGS (MICRO)

Lift the upper part of the gait trainer (see section 2.0.1.). The

springs can now be mounted/replaced.

2.0.4. HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Loosen the handles on both sides and adjust the frame to the

desired height. It is important that the height is adjusted equally

on both sides of the frame. Tighten the handles again on both

sides. Note: Never perform height adjustment while the gait

trainer is in use.

2.0.2. ASSEMBLY AND REPLACEMENT OF SPRINGS

Release the tilt bar and raise it to the upper position so the

lower risers appear in front of the rear wheels. Push and turn

the black plug at the bottom to remove it, so the springs will

appear. Fit/replace the spring and slide the plug up into the

groove and turn in place until it locks.

2.0. USER MANUAL

2.0.1. ASSEMBLY OF UPPER PART AND BASE

The upper part is placed in the risers on the chassis. The upper

part is lowered into place in the two risers.

Note: The handle must face the swivel front wheels.

13

2.0.7. ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE TRUNK SUPPORT

Loosen the upper hand screw (push-and-turn) on the front of

the gait trainer. Adjust the trunk support to the desired height

and retighten the hand screw. Correct height depends on the

user’s physique and need for free movement. Loosen the two

Allen screws on the front of the trunk support to replace it. Note:

Never replace the trunk support while the gait trainer is in use.

2.0.8. TILT FUNCTION

Turn the center hand screw on the front of the gait trainer

to tilt. Turning the hand screw modiﬁes the angle of the

trunk support and seat so the user’s posture changes. The tilt

function is stepless. Note: Never adjust the tilt while the gait

trainer is in use.

2.0.5. BRAKE

The brake rods are located in front of the rear wheels. Move

both brake rods backwards to activate the brake function on

both sides. The brakes are deactivated by moving both brake

rods forward again. Note: The brake must always be locked

when getting in and out of the gait trainer.

2.0.6. SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

Loosen the lower hand screw (push-and-turn) on the front of the

gait trainer. The seat can now be adjusted up and down. A hand

under the seat bracket makes the seat slide easy. Adjust the seat

height to the user’s stride length and retighten the hand screw so

that the seat bracket locks are in place. Note: Never adjust the

height of the seat while the gait trainer is in use.

2.0.11. ADJUSTING THE HANDLE

The angle of the handle is adjusted using two hand screws.

Turn the hand screws counterclockwise so that the handle

can rotate. There are three default settings of the handle.

Remember to tighten the hand screws again.

Note: The handle can be angled in a vertical position, so the

user has free access to e.g. a work table and kitchen table.

2.0.10. ENTRY AND EXIT

Grab the front of the tilt bar* with both hands and tilt it. This

lowers the seat unit, which facilitates entry and exit (Micro

cannot be tilted). The seat unit is raised again by pressing down

the tilt bar until it locks in the click hook with an audible click.

Note: Close the trunk support (see section 2.0.9.) and rear stop

(section 2.0.12.) when the gait trainer is in use.

2.0.9. TRUNK SUPPORT

The trunk support is opened by moving the outer handles (on

the back) upwards. The trunk support is closed by sliding the

handles down again so that the opening is smaller. Note: The

trunk support must always be closed when the gait trainer is in

use.

2.0.12. USING THE REAR STOP

The rear stop should always be locked up when the gait trainer

is in use. Swing the rear stop up so that it rests against the seat

and locks. Lift the rear stop up and swing it down to reopen

the rear stop when exiting the gait trainer.

*Never let go of the tilt bar when raising or lowering it.

15

2.0.15. BACKSTOP

By activating the backstop on both rear wheels, the gait trainer

can only be walked forward. Activate by lifting up the silver

button and deactivate by pressing the black return button.

Note: Always activate/deactivate the backstop on both sides.

2.0.16. DIRECTION LOCK

By activating the direction lock, the gait trainer can only move

in a straight line. Turn the snap lock while the wheel is straight

on the frame so the locking pawl hits the hole in the wheel

fork. Pull the snap lock backwards and turn it to locked position

to deactivate - so that the wheel can rotate freely.

Note: Always activate/deactivate the lock on both sides.

2.0.13. ADJUSTING THE REAR STOP

Lower the rear stop to ﬁnd an Allen screw inside the square

proﬁle. Loosen the screw and set the longitudinal direction to the

desired position. remember to retighten the Allen screw.

2.0.14. WALKING RESISTANCE BRAKE

By activating the walking resistance brake the walking resistance

increases. This can both reduce speed (both sides) and correct

for skewed gait (one side). Loosen the nut at the bottom of

the screw and adjust the screw until the desired resistance is

achieved. Tighten the nut again. Note: The walking resistance

brake is set individually on both sides.
