•
The handlebar supports the rider and steers the
Go-Ped®, just like a bicycle.
•
Always use both hands on the handlebar when riding.
SAFE BRAKING
1) Your Go-Ped® is capable of going up very steep hills
and is therefore equipped with a VERY effective braking
system through the use of your front brake in conjunction
with engine compression that acts as an anti-skid rear
brake.
2) Your Go-Ped® is designed to be as compact as
possible, so therefore has a short wheelbase.
Because of 1) and 2) mentioned above it is very important
to understand that your body weight and distribution plays
a key role in your riding safety and overall control of your
Go-Ped®.
•
When braking, using the primary front wheel brake
control lever located on the left side of handlebar, always
LEAN BACK enough to resist forward inertia as to keep
REAR wheel on the ground.
•
The engine kill button, located on the handlebar, serves
as a rear anti-skid brake control.
SAFE ACCELERATING
When accelerating, using throttle control lever located on
the right side of handlebar, always LEAN FORWARD
enough to resist rearward inertia as to keep the front
wheel on the ground.
LIQUIMATIC® GO-PED®
INSTRUCTIONS
The Liquimatic® Go-Ped® is equipped with a revolutionary
hydraulic torque converter transmission designed and
patented by the engineers of Patmont Motor Werks. The
purpose of the Hydraulic Torque Converter on the
Liquimatic® is to greatly increase the user friendliness and
to ease operation of the Go-Ped®.
Each unit is assembled, sealed and tested before shipment
from the factory. Any problems or questions should be
referred to the factory technical support help line found
below.
Starting procedure is similar to the standard Sport Go-
Ped®. Once running, keep the front break caliper applied
with front wheel firmly on the ground to prevent the
Liquimatic from rolling forward. At engine idle there will be a
gentle tug, which is normal.
Simply stand on the Liquimatic® Go-Ped®, release the
brake, gently squeeze the throttle and accelerate to a
comfortable speed.
Deceleration and stopping is similar to the standard Sport
Go-Ped®, using the front wheel braking, but with a much
smoother stop, as the engine remains at idle.
NOTE: As engine power is applied through a friction drive
roller to the tire surface it is very important to maintain prop-
er tire/drive roller adjustment as outlined in this manual.
