Usebenzisa izinduku

Kubalulekile ukuqala ukuhamba ngokushesha ngangokunokwenzeka ngemuva kokuhlinzwa kwakho. Kepha uzodinga ukwesekwa kokuhamba ngenkathi umlenze wakho usalulama. Izinduku zingaba yisinqumo esihle ngemuva kokulimala emlenzeni noma ukuhlinzwa uma udinga kuphela usizo oluncane ngokulinganisela nokuzinza. Izinduku ziyasiza futhi lapho umlenze wakho ubuthakathaka noma ubabuhlungu kancane.

Khuluma nomhlinzeki wakho wezokunakekelwa kwempilo. Uma unezinhlungu eziningi, ubuthakathaka, noma izinkinga ngokulinganisela. I-walker ingaba yindlela engcono kuwe kunezinduku.

Ngenkathi uhambahamba ngezinduku:

• Izandla zakho mazithwale isisindo sakho, hhayi amakhwapha.
• Bheka phambili lapho uhamba, hhayi phansi ezinyaweni zakho.
• Sebenzisa isihlalo esinendawo yokubamba izingalo ukwenza ukuhlala nokuma kube lula.
• Qiniseka ukuthi izinduku zakho sezilungisiwe zaba ubude bakho. Okuphezulu kufanele kube ngamasentimitha angu-1 kuye ku-1 1/2 (2.5 kuya ku-4 cm) ngaphansi kwekhwapha lakho. Izibambo kufanele zibe sezingeni le-hip.
• Izindololwane zakho kufanele zigobeke kancane lapho ubamba izibambo.
• Gcina izeluleko zezinduku zakho zingamasentimitha amathathu (7.5 amasentimitha) kude nezinyawo zakho ukuze ungakhubeki.

Phumuza izinduku zakho zibheke phansi lapho ungazisebenzisi ukuze zingawi phansi.

Uma uhamba usebenzisa izinduku, uzohambisa izinduku zakho phambili komlenze wakho obuthakathaka.

1. Beka izinduku zakho ezingaba yifidi elilodwa (amasentimitha angama-30) phambi kwakho, zibanzi kancane ukwedlula umzimba wakho.
2. Ncika ezibambo zezinduku zakho bese uhambisa umzimba wakho phambili. Sebenzisa izinduku zokusekela. UNGAYA phambili emlenzeni wakho obuthakathaka.
3. Qedela isinyathelo ngokuswayipha umlenze wakho oqinile uye phambili.
4. Phinda izinyathelo 1 kuya ku-3 ukuze uye phambili.
5. Jikela ngokushaya ngamandla emlenzeni wakho oqinile, hhayi emlenzeni wakho obuthakathaka.

Hamba kancane. Kungathatha isikhashana ukujwayela le nhlangano. Umhlinzeki wakho uzokhuluma nawe ngokuthi kufanele ubeke isisindo esingakanani emlenzeni wakho obuthakathaka. Izinketho zifaka:

• Ukungathwali isisindo. Lokhu kusho ukuthi gcina umlenze wakho obuthakathaka ususemhlabathini lapho uhamba.
• Thinta-phansi othwala isisindo. Ungathinta phansi ngezinzwane zakho ukusiza ngokulinganisela. UNGATHATHI isisindo emlenzeni wakho obuthakathaka.
• Ukuthwala isisindo kancane. Umhlinzeki wakho uzokutshela ukuthi ungabeka isisindo esingakanani emlenzeni.
• Ukuthwala isisindo njengoba kubekezelelwe. Ungabeka ngaphezu kwesigamu sesisindo somzimba wakho emlenzeni wakho obuthakathaka inqobo nje uma kungenabuhlungu.

Ukuhlala phansi:

• Phindela emuva esihlalweni, embhedeni, noma endlini yangasese kuze kube yilapho isihlalo sithinta ngemuva kwemilenze yakho.
• Hambisa umlenze wakho obuthakathaka phambili, futhi ulinganisele emlenzeni wakho oqinile.
• Bamba izinduku zombili esandleni sakho ngasohlangothini olufanayo nomlenze wakho obuthakathaka.
• Usebenzisa isandla sakho samahhala, bamba isihlalo sengalo, isihlalo, noma umbhede noma indlu yangasese.
• Ahlale phansi kancane.

Ukusukuma:

• Yiya ngaphambili kwesihlalo sakho bese uhambisa umlenze wakho obuthakathaka phambili.
• Bamba izinduku zombili esandleni sakho ngasohlangothini olufanayo nomlenze wakho obuthakathaka.
• Sebenzisa isandla sakho samahhala ukukusiza ukuthi usukume uphume esihlalweni sakho ukuze usukume.
• Ukulinganisela emlenzeni wakho oqinile ngenkathi ubeka i-crutch esandleni ngasinye.

Gwema izitebhisi uze ukulungele ukuzisebenzisa. Ngaphambi kokuthi uye phansi naphansi ezinyaweni zakho, ungahlala phansi uthothise phezulu noma phansi, isinyathelo esisodwa ngesikhathi.

Lapho usukulungele ukwehla unyuka izitebhisi ezinyaweni zakho, landela lezi zinyathelo. Ekuqaleni, qiniseka ukuzijwayeza ngosizo oluvela kothile ozokusekela.

Ukukhuphuka izitebhisi:

1. Khuphuka ngomlenze wakho oqinile kuqala.
2. Letha izinduku phezulu, eyodwa engalweni ngayinye.
3. Beka isisindo sakho emlenzeni oqinile bese uletha umlenze wakho obuthakathaka phezulu.

Ukwehla izitebhisi:

1. Beka izinduku zakho ezinyathelweni ezingezansi kuqala, eyodwa engalweni ngayinye.
2. Hambisa umlenze wakho obuthakathaka phambili naphansi. Landela ngomlenze wakho oqinile.
3. Uma kukhona i-handrail, ungayibamba bese ubamba izinduku zombili kolunye uhlangothi lwakho ngesandla esisodwa. Lokhu kungazizwa kunzima. Ngakho-ke qiniseka ukuthi uhamba kancane uze ukhululeke.

Yenza izinguquko endlini yakho ukuvimbela ukuwa.

• Qiniseka ukuthi noma yimaphi amatagi avulekile, amakhona ombhoxo anamathela phezulu, noma izintambo zivikelekile phansi ukuze ungakhubeki noma uzibambeke kuzo.
• Susa imfuhlumfuhlu bese ugcina phansi kwakho kuhlanzekile futhi komile.
• Gqoka izicathulo noma iziliphu ezinamasondo enjoloba noma okungewona ama-skid. UNGAGQIQI izicathulo ezinezithende noma amathe wesikhumba.

Hlola ithiphu noma izeluleko zezinduku zakho nsuku zonke bese uzishintsha uma zigqokile. Ungathola amathiphu wokufaka esikhundleni esitolo sakho sezokwelapha noma esitolo sendawo.

Sebenzisa ubhakha omncane, iphakethe le-fanny, noma isikhwama sehlombe ukubamba izinto ozidingayo nawe (njengefoni yakho). Lokhu kuzogcina izandla zakho zikhululekile ngenkathi uhamba.
