CHILDREN SHOULD ALWAYS BE SUPERVISED BY AN ADULT WHEN RIDING.

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR CHILDREN UNDER 7 YEARS OF AGE.
•
ALWAYS EXERCISE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN YOU ARE RIDING
IN PROXIMITY
TO OTHER VEHICLES, PEDESTRIANS, AND ESPECIALLY IN PROXIMITY TO CARS IF YOU

COURTEOUS TO RIDERS OF OTHER VEHICLES AND ALL PEDESTRIANS. SHARE THE
PATH!
•
DO NOT MODIFY YOUR TRIKKE CAMBERING VEHICLE.
ONLY USE TRIKKE TECH,
INC. APPROVED PARTS OR ACCESSORIES. SEE THE LIMITED WARRANTY FOR OTHER
USE RESTRICTIONS.
General Warnings:
• If you do not have the proper tools or find that you are unable to understand the
assembly instructions, have a qualified Trikke dealer assemble the Trikke™ cambering
vehicle for you. If a Trikke dealer assembles the vehicle for you, be sure to read the Riding
and Safety sections of the owner’s manual and watch the Riding and Safety video manual
before riding for the first time.
• Immediately stop riding if you suspect that any part of the vehicle is not functioning
properly. Inspect the vehicle closely to confirm what the problem is. Contact your dealer or
Trikke Tech, Inc. directly if you suspect that a malfunctioning or defective part is affecting
its safe operation.
• The front wheel is turned exactly 180 degrees to that of a bicycle. Unlike a bike, a
cambering vehicle’s front wheel actually trails behind the fork. Altering this wheel position
will change the intended performance of the vehicle. See the photos on page 4 of this
manual to see the proper manufacturer suggested position of the front fork.
• Riders performing in Trikke Tech, Inc. produced videos and photos are highly skilled
and specially trained professionals. Do not try these tricks yourself or you may lose control
and fall causing serious injury and even death.
• If you did not receive an instructional video in the box, or if the written or video manual
is damaged, please contact Trikke Tech, Inc. before attempting to assemble or ride the
cambering vehicle.
