Standard Nitro Reference

The standard Drive Nitro rollator family includes the RTL10266 and related colour/configuration variants. Drive's parts documentation identifies 1026602 as the left hand grip and 1026603 as the right hand grip.

The Nitro standard rollator is rated for a maximum user weight of 300 lb (136 kg). The grip itself does not establish or increase the rollator's weight capacity.

Usage and Safety Information

Confirm the exact Nitro model and left/right orientation before installation. The left side is determined while standing behind the rollator facing forward.

Install the replacement grip securely on the handle structure according to the applicable Drive service procedure. Verify that the grip cannot rotate, slide or pull away during normal hand use.

After installation, test the rollator's steering and brake controls before returning it to service. The grip must not interfere with the brake lever, height-adjustment mechanism or handgrip locking system.

Inspect the grip regularly for cracks, looseness, deterioration or loss of secure attachment. Replace it if damaged. Do not operate the rollator if the handle assembly or brake system is compromised.

Important: The correct Drive OEM reference for the Nitro Left Hand Grip is 1026602. This is the left grip only; the right grip is 1026603. Confirm the exact Nitro model and revision before ordering.
