The team discovered that SM decreased significantly when an individual was asked to do other tasks than straight line walking. They also discovered that leaning on the device may increase the force centre in the support for the base and can also increase or decrease stability. The authors conclude that these findings can be used to improve training for the safe use of rolling devices. They suggest that greater focus should be given to activities other than straight line walking and on the specific strategies for performance of each exercise, which may facilitate or impede stability.

Capacity for weight-bearing

A rollator walker is capable of supporting up to 300lbs, or more depending on the model.

The brakes can become hard to operate or loose, which can be a risk to people with weaker muscles and diminished mobility.

Many manufacturers provide the option of adding brakes that can also be locked to improve safety and stability. This feature is particularly beneficial for people who have difficulty squeezing the brakes or applying pressure due to a weak grasp or other health issues such as arthritis. There are some variations in the way the locking brakes are set however most walkers use the same steps to ensure they are set correctly.

Before you attempt to adjust the brakes of your lock, it is recommended to read any maintenance instructions included with your mobility aid to find specific directions. To begin you must find the knob to adjust the brake or screw typically positioned near the handle grips, and tighten it by turning it clockwise.
