Short Description
A mobile walking frame providing postural support to assist a child in walking without hand or grip supports (hands free while mobilizing). It is suitable for children up to 40kg. There are two models in two sizes and five colour choices available. A range of options and accessories are available.

More Details
The KidWalk consists of a two piece frame incorporating a padded, swivel seat and support system. The frame design incorporates a lateral weight shift feature. The frame comes with adjustable mid wheel axle position (for large mid wheel) and auto centering pelvic guides.

The frame colours include razzberry, shocker green, red, blue and black. The upholstery is black nylon.

The seat is removable and the mobility frame can be used without it. The central mast is angle adjustable (approx 15 degrees anteriorly and posteriorly to the vertical). A single adjustment allows bilateral pelvic pad replacement. The frame comes with light up castors, anti tip bars, wheel locks and quick release large mid wheels. It has swing up lateral and pelvic supports, hip and chest lateral support which can be adjusted in height, width and depth. The supports and frame height can be adjusted while the child is in the frame.

Standard Upper body support (large size available for KidWalk 2):
- Lateral chest system: lateral side supports, swing away anterior support pads, lumbar support pad. There is optional width and depth adjustment.
- Flip up chest pad brackets with either standard 10 degree angle or optional straight alignment for KidWalk 1. For KidWalk 2 the straight flip up pad brackets come standard and the 10 degree angle is optional.

Method of Adjustment: All adjustments can be made without any tools by turning the wing nuts and knobs with the hand. The height of the frame can be adjusted with one hand in small increments.
