Knee Scooter rental

Step 1: Adjust the Knee Scooter for Proper Fit

• Set the Knee Pad Height: Adjust so your injured leg rests comfortably at a 90-degree angle.
• Handlebar Adjustment: Position it at waist level for comfortable control.
• Lock the Brakes: Before mounting, ensure the brakes are engaged to prevent movement.

Using a Knee Scooter in Different Places
A. Indoors (Homes, Offices, Stores, etc.)

• Ensure a Clear Path: Remove rugs, cords, or clutter to prevent tripping hazards.
• Slow & Steady Movement: Avoid sharp turns and excessive speed, especially on hardwood or tiled floors.
• Navigating Doorways: If a doorway is narrow, turn the handlebars slightly and use one foot to help guide.
• Use Handrails: If available, use handrails for additional balance while maneuvering near stairs.
  

B. Outdoors (Sidewalks, Parks, Streets, etc.)

Check the Terrain: Avoid gravel, grass, and uneven surfaces. Stick to smooth sidewalks.

Use the Brakes When Necessary: Engage brakes on slopes to prevent rolling too fast.

Be Aware of Curbs: Approach curbs slowly and use ramps when available.

C. Public Transportation (Buses, Trains, Airports, etc.)

Secure Your Balance: Lock the brakes when waiting for transport to avoid rolling.

Boarding Buses & Trains: Enter slowly and hold onto railings for support.

Airports: Use accessibility services if needed; fold the scooter before boarding if required.

D. Workplaces & Schools

Use Ramps & Elevators: Avoid stairs and always take an accessible route.

Store It Safely: Keep it in a designated area to avoid obstructing others.

How to Fold & Store a Knee Scooter in a Car

Engage the Brakes: Prevent movement before handling.

Fold the Steering Column:
Locate the quick-release lever or knob near the base of the steering column.
Unlock and fold the handlebars down toward the knee pad.

Remove the Basket (if attached): Detach any accessories to save space.

Lift & Place in the Car Trunk:
Hold the frame securely and lift with proper posture.

If needed, angle it to fit inside smaller trunks.

Secure It to Prevent Movement: Use bungee cords or soft padding to keep it from shifting while driving.
