Airgo Navigator (Pride)

Short Description
A folding, lightweight, aluminium, mobile walking frame that can be converted into a transit wheelchair. Features a padded seat, flexible backrest, bicycle-style hand brakes and a basket.

Price Guide
Refer to supplier information for pricing details.

More Details
The walking frame features 200mm (8") diameter solid tyres. The two front wheels swivel, the rear remain fixed.

The handles are height adjustable via a screw knob and bolt mechanism. An extender tube is available if additional height is required. The brakes lock on by depressing the levers positioned under the handgrips and are released by squeezing the cables toward the handgrips. Squeezing the cables upwards when in the unlocked position will also temporarily engage the brakes until pressure is removed.

The seat is padded and comes with a seat belt for use when the walker is used as a transit wheelchair. The backrest is made from a flexible, padded material and can be used when the frame is used as a walker or wheelchair.

Two single-piece, flip-up removable footrests are supplied for when the frame is used as a wheelchair. They are non-adjustable.

The walker can be folded into a compact size with carry handles to facilitate transport.

The walker is supplied with a nylon, cloth basket which attaches to the frame via press stud buttons.
