Folding
35
Handling instructions
the folding buffer tightly. Otherwise, the axis
may be distorted when folding.
Taking off the front wheels
To achieve an even smaller package, you can
take off the front wheels (see page 56). In this
case you will also have to remove the front
mudguards (see page 82)
Unfolding
To unfold and reassemble your tricycle, please
follow the steps above in the opposite order.
Make sure that after unfolding the quick re-
lease lever rests on the front frame part. Else
the snap-in mechanism will not work prop-
erly.
Lift the folding hinge until the securing tab
snaps in noticeably. Some momentum will be
helpful. Now close the quick release lever un-
til it touches the rear frame part.
Mounting the seat
As first step merge the lower seat connection
sheets with their respective connection tube
on the frame. Align the seat to the frame cen-
ter. Then slide the middle and upper seat
connection sheets with their openings on the
respective quick release. Be careful to not
cause any paint damage. With the BodyLink-
seat it is possible to first push in the middle
seat connection and then the upper because
of its flexibility. In case the seat can not be
mounted easily check the quick releases are
loosened enough (if necessary unscrew the
nuts a little bit more). It may be helpful to
punch the seat with your hand to properly fit
the seat to the tricycle. Close the quick re-
leases. Please refer to the hints given on page
8.
Danger!
Before riding your tri-
cycle, make sure the quick release is se-
curely closed. The securing tab must be
locked and the quick release lever must be
laying on the rear frame part. Cables or
wires must run free. The handlebar must
turn easily and freely. All seat quick re-
leases must be closed properly.
Please pay attention to the instructions
about quick release levers on page 8.
