Frame Size and seating adjustment  

To get the most enjoyment from riding your MT push, it is important to ensure the seating is 
adjusted correctly for you. Your MT push Dealer will advise you on the correct seating position for 
you.   
 

CAUTION -

 The designed maximum weight of the rider is 100 kg (17 stone)  

 

1.2 

 Folding 

The MT push is designed in such a way that, when folded, it will fit into the back of a car for easy 
transport or require as little space as possible for storage.  
 

Seat Folding 

For efficient stowing of the MT push for transport or storage, pull the seat back cushion out at its 
base then pull the cord joining the two locking pins and push seat forward. To restore the seat to 
its upright position, lift the seat back whilst pulling the cord, allowing the locking pins to retract. 
Once in the upright position, release the cord and the locking pins will spring out into the holes in 
the frame. 

 
 

 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 

CAUTION -

 Ensure the locking pins are BOTH fully engaged in the holes in the frame before 

riding. Failure to do so could result in the seat back becoming unstable such that the user 
could lose control and fall.
