The brakes on your cargobike allow you to achieve a high braking
performance in any driving situation with low hand force. The stopp-
ing distance also depends on driving skills. This can be trained. When
braking, the weight shifts forward and the rear wheels are relieved.
Especially when driving downhill, this problem is exacerbated. During
a full braking, you must therefore try to shift your weight as far back
as possible. Actuate both brakes simultaneously and note that the
front brake can transmit far greater forces.
BRAKING SYSTEM
Wetness reduces the braking effect. Expect longer bra -
king distances in raining conditions! When replacing
the brake pads, use only approved pads, that match
the brake surface. Your dealer will be happy to advise
you. Pay attention to absolutely wax-, grease- and oil-
free pads and braking surfaces.
DANGER
!
Brake disc and caliper can get very hot during braking.
This applies especially after frequent braking or long
downhill runs. Therefore do not touch the brakes
directly after braking to avoid skin burns.
Avoid braking for long periods of time, as can happen
on long steep descents. Otherwise it can lead to bub-
bling of the brake fluid and a total failure of the brake
system. Heavy falls and injuries can be the result.

MAINTENANCE OF DISC BRAKES
Check the function of the brake system for braking effect regularly,
attrition and leaks. The brake pads must be renewed, if they are dirty
or if the thickness of the pads has dropped below one millimeter.
Under no circumstances may the carrier plate touch the brake disc.
