NOTICE : SAFETY RESPONSIBILITES
Please read, understand, and practice the following guidelines for safe operation of
your QuietKat.
•
Supervision:
Riders must be supervised by responsible adults at all times. The rider
should never be beyond eye and voice range. An adult must always assess and approve
the riding conditions and the QuietKat preparedness before the unit is ridden. Always
ensure the rider is cautious, maintaining complete control, and riding at a reasonable
speed. Ensure the terrain is suited to the skills of the rider and capabilities of the unit.
•
Helmets & Safety Attire:
There is no single factor that works better at reducing the
severity of injuries sustained in accidents more than a quality helmet. Please don’t
ever allow your QuietKat to be ridden without one. Riders should also wear suitable
riding gear (gloves, eye protection and boots). Shoe laces, loose clothing, or even
long hair could potentially get caught in wheels.
•
One Rider Only:
Your QuietKat was engineered to carry one rider and no (0)
passengers. Carrying a passenger would overload the machine and alter the handling.
•
Do not overload the Vehicle:
QuietKat trikes are designed for riders under 300lbs.
Exceeding the weight limitations will adversely affect the handling of the machine, and
potentially cause damage not covered by the warranty.
•
It’s the law; obey it:
Obey all laws. QuietKat trikes are for OFF-ROAD USE
ONLY. QuietKat trikes cannot be used on public roads or sidewalks. The
purchaser, owner and/or riders of this machine are directly responsible to know
and obey all
local, state, and federal laws regarding the riding and use of this machine.
•
Weather & Riding Conditions:
Please be aware, that in wet conditions, distance to stop
may double or triple over the distance that it takes under dry conditions. Ride more slowly
and anticipate your stops by applying the brakes earlier.
•
Night time:
Do not ride your QuietKat after dark or in low light conditions.
•
Maintenance:
Proper maintenance will extend the life of your unit. There are
maintenance instructions here in this manual. Check the brakes and the tires
and the tightness of all those important fasteners before each and every ride.
Have your unit checked by a qualified bike shop mechanic at least once a year.
It’s a small investment in the well-being of the rider.
•
Batteries:
We have equipped your QuietKat with sealed Lithium-Ion battery. As
always, if you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us at
970-328-2399
