Adjusting Crutch Height
All Walk Easy forearm crutches (and many of our canes) use a Clip system for height adjustment. The pictorial below shows how to adjust crutch height using this mechanism. |
|
|
 |
Hold the crutch or cane tube in the palm of your hand with the pin of the Clip facing you.
|
|
 |
Using your thumbs, push downward on the edges of the Clip. The pin will disappear through the hole in the tube.
|
|
 |
Remove the Clip. Adjust the tube to desired length, making sure the holes line up (inner and outer tubes).
NOTE: on all children forearm crutch models, the adjustment holes are on the inner tube!
|
|
 |
Hold the Clip between your thumb and forefinger and guide the pin into the hole. |
|
 |
Use your thumb to snap the Clip into place. |
|
 |
Check to make sure the Clip is installed properly and that the pin protrudes on the opposite side of the tube. |
