Carrying Cargo
Carrying a cargo load involves additional risks, which require special attention and care to mitigate and manage. Braking,
acceleration, and balancing are all significantly affected by the addition of cargo loaded on the RadRover. You must become
accustomed to the braking, steering, and operational adjustments required to safely operate the RadRover with cargo. Users
should practice riding on a flat and open area with light cargo before attempting to carry heavier loads.
Notice:
The following bulleted list provides important tips for the safe operation of the RadRover when used for carrying cargo.
o
Cargo should be loaded as low as possible to lower the center of gravity and improve stability, but cargo should not
interfere with any moving components or the ground.
o
Ensure your loads are properly secured and periodically check that nothing loosens, risks interfering with any moving
components, or could risk touching or dragging on the ground.
o
Plan your route accordingly since a rider’s hill climbing ability, steering, and braking are
all impacted when cargo is loaded
on the RadRover. Hills that are normally easy to climb and descend without cargo can become challenging and dangerous
once cargo is loaded onto the bike.
o
Become proficient at controlling the RadRover with the cargo load in a flat and open area before riding on roads or hills.
Do not use the front brake by itself. Use both brakes for all braking operations. Braking with only the front brake can cause
excessive stress on components, damage to the bike and parts, and/or loss of control.
It is always the user’s responsibility to
ensure that cargo or a passenger loaded on the RadRover does not interfere or impact
the user’s ability to safely operate the Rad
Rover
. Serious injury or death can occur if cargo or a passenger impacts the user’s
ability to safely operate the RadRover.
The kickstand is not designed to be used for loading cargo. You MUST hold onto the bike whenever loading cargo. Do not
assume the bike is stable and balanced when using the kickstand, always hold onto the bike when cargo is being loaded or in
place.
