Description
The Drive Platform Walker/Crutch Attachment is an accessory that lets a person push and steer a walker with the forearm instead of the hands.
Who is the platform walker attachment for?
It suits a person who is unable to grip a walker's handles. The forearm rests in the cradle and an adjustable strap holds it in place.
How does it attach, and how do I check it?
It bolts to the walker with two clamps, one on the lower crossbar and one on the upper crossbar or over the top bar handle. Check both clamps are tight before each use.
What is in the pack, and is the crutch attachment included?
Item 10105-1 is one platform attachment: the padded forearm cradle, a handle, the vertical post, two clamps and the bolts to assemble them, with the owner's manual.
Which walkers does it fit?
It fits a walker with a top bar handle and two horizontal crossbars, the layout of the Drive folding walkers we sell: the Drive folding walker with 5 inch wheels, the Drive deluxe folding walker and the Drive bariatric aluminum folding walker.
Frequently asked questions
Which walkers does the platform attachment fit?
It clamps to a walker with a top bar handle and two horizontal crossbars. The Drive folding walkers we sell use that layout.
Can I use the platform attachment on a rollator?
No. It clamps to a top bar handle and horizontal crossbars, the layout of a folding walker, not a rollator.
How do I fit the attachment to the walker?
Bolt the armrest and handle to the vertical post, place the longer clamp on the post, then loosely fit the smaller clamp to the lower crossbar and the larger clamp to the upper crossbar or over the top bar handle.
