Catching points
Consider the greater width of the muli when the basket is unfolded. When unfolded,
the basket has a width of approx. 60cm and thus offers much larger catching points
than a conventional bicycle. When riding the muli, it is therefore very important that
you keep a good eye on the width of the road and always maintain a safe distance
from the edge of the road or lane, especially on divided bike/pedestrian paths. Spe-
cial care must also be taken when driving into driveways, through passages or other
obstacles or roadway narrowings so that the wide load basket does not collide with
them. It may be necessary to stop the ride, dismount and push the muli around an
obstacle.
Improper use, violent tugging or pushing on the basket wings or
blows and impacts on the basket wings, e.g. due to a fall, can
cause components to bend and the basket can no longer be
closed.
Especially when closing the basket, make sure that the locking
bow is completely engaged in the basket. Give the bow a light
tap to push the bow completely into the basket.
Be very careful when loosening the pan head screws on the
basket. Since these are pan-head screws that offer the hexa-
gonal wrench a somewhat reduced surface area for force trans-
mission, it is very important to press the hexagonal wrench into
the screw with high pressure and then turn it. Otherwise, you
risk damaging the lens head screw.
Never tension the basket covers so tightly that the basket wings
no longer rest on the supports of the frame. This gives the
basket lateral play and causes it to tilt slightly back and forth
permanently, which can lead to bending and breaking of some
components.
