Applications

This product is suitable for walking support, balance assistance, and daily mobility. It can be configured for use in homes, elderly care institutions, rehabilitation centers, nursing spaces, or appropriate public facilities. For users requiring unilateral or bilateral support, the decision to use it independently or with caregiver assistance should be based on the individual’s physical condition. Height, angle, position, or support method adjustments should be completed before first use. The usage area should be flat, dry, and unobstructed, with adequate clearance for operation and passage.

As a walking aid product, it provides daily assistance and support and is not a substitute for medical diagnosis, professional rehabilitation programs, or procedures that must be performed by healthcare personnel.

FAQ

What is the maximum user weight for this crutch?

The parameter table specifies a load capacity of 100 kg, so users should not exceed this weight, and caregivers must verify the user’s weight before recommending use.

How do I adjust the crutch height correctly?

Loosen the locking collar, slide the lower tube to align the push-button with the desired hole, then tighten the collar securely; the correct height lets the elbow bend slightly when the hand is on the grip, and the forearm cuff sits about 2–3 cm below the elbow crease.

Can this crutch be folded for travel or storage?

Yes, the folding mechanism is located at the mid-shaft; press the release trigger and fold the lower section upward, reducing the crutch to a compact length of approximately 68 cm for carrying or storing in a trunk or closet.

Is the forearm cuff adjustable for different arm sizes?

The cuff has a fixed internal width of about 9 cm, so measure the widest part of the user’s forearm; if the arm is larger than this, choose a different model or consult a supplier for a wider cuff option.

What should I check if the crutch makes a clicking sound during use?

Stop using it immediately, inspect the folding joint for debris or looseness, and verify that the locking pin fully engages into the receiver hole; if the sound persists, replace the crutch or contact a qualified technician, as a loose joint can cause sudden collapse.
