Reminders for Each Use:

• Crutches are positioned correctly when you can lean forward
  comfortably while resting on the underarm supports.
• When standing straight, the underarm padding should sit 2-3
  inches below your armpit.
• Ensure push buttons are firmly in place and hand grip wing nuts
  are securely tightened.
• Adjust crutch height by pressing both push buttons, rotating
  base, and pulling down until desired height is obtained.
• Rotate base again until both push buttons snap back into place.
• Push buttons are engaged when they fully protrude through the
  holes in the bracket and an audible click is heard.
• To position hand grips, let arms hang at your sides with an
  approximate 10° bend at your elbow.
• Measure from the floor to the center of your wrist.
• Adjust hand grips to this height by loosening wing nuts, sliding
  grips to the appropriate position, then securely re-tightening the nuts.

How to Use the Crutches:

Walking - Leaning on your
uninjured leg, place crutches in front of you, positioning them
slightly wider than shoulder width apart. Supporting your weight with
your hands (not your armpits), carefully swing your good leg forward,
placing this foot just in front of the crutches. Keep your head and
posture upright to maintain balance. When using crutches, watch for
possible safety hazards such as cords, water or oil on floor, rugs, or
other obstacles.
Walking up stairs – Hold onto
hand rail with one hand while positioning both crutches under your
opposite arm. If there is no hand rail, position one crutch under each
arm. Keeping the crutches on the stair on which you are standing, step
up with the stronger leg first, followed by crutches and the injured
leg.
Walking down stairs – Place
crutches down on stair first, followed by injured leg, then the
stronger leg.
Sitting down – Back up to the seat until you feel the backs of your
legs touching it. Hold both crutches by the hand grips in the hand on
the injured side. Hold onto the seat with the other hand and lower
yourself slowly, bending at the hips. Unless authorized by your
healthcare provider, keep your injured leg off the ground and your
weight on your good leg.
Standing up – Make sure that
your seat is secure. If using a wheelchair, ensure that the brakes are
engaged. Move forward until you are sitting at the edge of the seat.
Place the stronger foot on the floor. Hold the crutches by the hand
grips in the hand of your injured side. Push up from the seat with the
stronger leg, keeping your head forward. When upright, place a crutch
under each arm.
General Care:

General Maintenance Tips:

1. Wipe metal parts with a clean, soft cloth at least once a week
2. If exposed to moisture, dry immediately
3. Use only a clean towel dampened with cool water when cleaning
   hand grips and underarm padding
4. Confirm that the grips are dry before using. NEVER use
   ammonia-based cleaning solutions or soap on hand grips and underarm
   padding, which may cause them to loosen or crack
5. Periodically check tips for damage, cracks, or worn tread.
6. If any of these issues develop, discontinue use until tips have
   been replaced.
