1.6.3 Riding Tips
Four Speed Levels
Beginners should use speed level 1 (6 km/h) or speed level 2 (12 km/h). Speed level 3 (20 km/h)
and speed level 4 (max speed) only if you are an experienced LongCo user.
Braking
Use primarily the left brake lever , to slow down, which is for the rear wheels.
Reverse
This feature should only be used by experienced LongCo users. ,
Acceleration
Never accelerate in an uncontrolled fashion.
Terrain/Surface changes
Be aware that every terrain/surface change (i.e. from pavement to grass, a threshold or speed
bump) is a potential hazard and may require a change in driving style. Do not pull up the LongCo
handlebar when riding over obstacles.
Steep Slopes
When going downhill never exceed a speed of 20 km/h (or 45km/h for the faster LongCo Models).
Instead, use the brakes to slow down or push the LongCo. If driving across a slope the driver must
balance the inclination by leaning his/her body uphill.
Added Height
Because of the added height of the LongCo platform (and the driver’s helmet) special care must
be taken when driving indoors, as well as through doorways, archways, under tree branches,
signs, or other overhead obstacles.
Visibility
To ride safely, the rider must be able to see clearly and must be visible to others. Always switch
on the light , when riding the LongCo at night time or in conditions of low visibility. Follow local
legislation regarding regulations for using the LongCo at night.
