Load basket
The muli has a foldable aluminum load basket. The basket consists of two separate
basket wings, which are connected to the steel frame of the muli at the bottom via
pivot bearings. The bottom of the basket is therefore not a continuous surface, but
divided in the middle. The bottom of the basket is covered with a rubber mat, which
covers the center gap and the pivot bearings.
The side walls of the wings are made
of perforated aluminum sheet, which
makes the wings very strong and light.
On the basket tubes are welded four
eyelets, which serve to brace load,
attach the child seat and as support
points for a standard Eurobox with di-
mensions 40x60cm.
Loading and load securing
The load basket allows a maximum load of 70 kg. The possible load in the load
basket for a trip must always be determined depending on the driver‘s weight,
the tare weight of the muli, and possible additional loads. The framework for this
is the permissible total weight of the muli. Observe the detailed information in
the „Safety instructions“ section in the first part of this manual.
Adhere to the following guidelines for loading and load securing.
1. Generally keep the load‘s center of gravity as low as possible.
2. The load must be stowed in such a way that the center of gravity of the entire
load is as central as possible, i.e. above the longitudinal center line of the vehicle.
3. The muli must be loaded within the limits of the permissible total weight and
the permissible axle loads.
4. Even with partial loads, an even weight distribution must be aimed for so that
each axle is loaded proportionally.
5. Always secure your load carefully, for example with lashing or tension belts, so
that it cannot move during the journey.
Note that unfavorable weight distribution can have a negative
effect on braking behavior and driving stability.
Only transport children in the muli child seat in the basket. The
basket is not locked when open without the child seat installed
and can collapse at any time and injure the children.
Since the load basket of the muli is not a rigid construction
but a moving part, you must use the load basket with parti-
cular care and caution. Make sure that you do not exceed
the load limits of the basket, that you always open and
close the basket carefully and that you carefully secure
and brace every load that you transport.
Note that when driving with heavy loads, only the use of two
mounted locking rods ensures that no warping or bending of
the basket wings occurs.
