Checking the brake effect
It is easy to check whether both disc brakes are experiencing the same brake effect:
f
Activate the parking brake by locking the brake lever.
f
Then try to push the
KidGoo2
in a straight line despite the locked brakes. When doing this, the
KidGoo2
can move in the following ways:
–
KidGoo2
does not roll: Both brakes are adjusted equally and well.
–
KidGoo2
rolls to the left: The right brake is not adjusted sufficiently.
–
KidGoo2
rolls to the right: The left brake is not adjusted sufficiently.
–
KidGoo2
rolls in a straight line: Both brakes are adjusted equally but are not strong enough.
Danger!
If you are able to push the
KidGoo2
away, you must adjust the brakes before the next
use.
Adjusting the brake
Danger!
Check the brake cable, the ends of the brake rope and the brake linings for damages
before changing the brake settings. Seek the support of a qualified specialist workshop
if you have noticed damages or wear of the brake rope and brake lining.
You can improve the brake effect by tightening or
loosening the tension of the brake ropes. To do this, turn
the adjustment screws of the brake cable which you can
find directly at the brake lever, the branch point and at
both disc brakes:
f
Turn the adjustment screw to the left or right to
change the tension of the brake rope.
f
Check first what effect the change has had, see
“Checking the brake effect” on page 25
.
f
Adjust further adjustment screws as required until the
brake pulls properly and evenly.
Adjusting the push handle
Use the two light grey pushbuttons to alter the height of the push handle. These are identified
by the word “PUSH”. You can set and engage the push handle at several levels in the 80 – 112 cm
range.
f
Hold the push handle with both hands so that your
thumbs rest on the light grey pushbuttons.
f
Press both pushbuttons and keep them pressed in
order to release the height adjustment.
f
Swing the push handle to the desired height.
