How to Adjust Your Walking Stick
To find the correct height, stand upright with your shoes on and arms at your side. The handle of the walking cane should be level with your wrist crease. Adjust the height by pressing the push-button and sliding the telescopic shaft to the desired hole. Ensure the safety locking nut is tightened to prevent rattling.
