KidWalk Setup & Adjustments

This page shows photos of the proper way to put a child in the KidWalk and have it adjusted to them within 30 seconds.

First step:

Measure child's inseam; lower seat on mast to this position

Move pelvic and trunk laterals to widest position.

Open up both pelvic and trunk pads in the swing-up position

Note: Shown with large headrest

Second step:

Place child in unit facing toward you

Third Step:

Bring down front trunk pads and latch safety buckle so the child feels secure.

Fourth Step:

Bring down pelvic pad and latch safety buckle, at this time child feels very secure.

Push down lever behind each large wheel to set brakes

By loosening this knob you are able to raise or lower the pelvic positioner.

This knob that is being turned is for the bilateral hip adjustment which either tightens or loosens the hip guides symmetrically for a centered pelvic position.

This knob is used to adjust the depth on the pelvic positioning pad. It is important to set this fairly tight to be sure it positions the legs underneath not in front of the child. If legs have tight hip flexion leg guides would be recommended, pictured below.

Dynamic leg guides are recommended for users who posture into hip flexion to provide gentle range of motion and kinesthetic feedback for leg position. The leg guides are wrapped just above the knees and attached around the vertical mast. Each leg guide can be adjusted to the desired tension to give best possible function.

This knob adjusts the width on the front pelvic positioning pad.
