Lower Leg Support for Mobility Scooter with Raised Sides

Lower leg support for a mobility scooter

The standard leg position on a mobility scooter can be difficult for users who cannot bend their knee sufficiently. This lower leg support provides additional support and allows the leg to be positioned more appropriately.

The support consists of a padded leg rest mounted on an adjustable frame. It has raised sides to help prevent the lower leg from slipping sideways off the support. Along its length, the support has no raised edges, allowing the lower leg to be supported along its length.

The frame is mounted to the footplate of the mobility scooter. The height, angle and depth of the leg support can be adjusted to suit the user and the mobility scooter.

Universal design

The lower leg support is supplied as a universal set and can be fitted to suitable mobility scooters. Whether installation is possible depends on the construction of the mobility scooter and the available space around the footplate.

Installation should be carried out by an experienced technician. The frame must be securely attached to the footplate and correctly adjusted to suit the mobility scooter and the user.

For users with limited knee flexion

This lower leg support can be useful for mobility scooter users who have difficulty placing their lower leg in the standard position because they cannot bend their knee sufficiently.

The final position and adjustment of the support should always be determined according to the user's needs and the construction of the mobility scooter.
