GRIT FREEEDOM, Руководство по сборке и инструкция пользователя

Страница: 47 / 55

• Avoid extended periods of descent, as this could overwork the brakes.
• Do not descend hills when the wheels and brakes are very wet or covered in wet mud.
Braking performance decreases when wet.
CAUTION: ​
WET CONDITIONS DECREASE BRAKING PERFORMANCE. Use
caution when riding in wet conditions. Wet tires require more braking force for stopping.
Riding in wet conditions without the ability to apply the braking force required for stopping
could result in a collision or a fall.
8.3. Curbs
It is possible to ride the Freedom Chair down curbs, as long as the chair is ridden ​straight off
the curb and not at an angle​. Here are some tips:
• Ride straight off of the curb, not at an angle.
• Make sure you have enough space in front of the curb to safely ride off of it. Watch out
for traffic, pedestrians, and obstacles!
• If possible, use the levers to lift the front wheel up just before dropping off of the curb.
This more evenly distributes weight across the three wheels.
WARNING:​
​
DON’T RIDE OFF CURBS AT AN ANGLE. Riding off of a curb at an
angle will cause the Freedom Chair to tip, which may result in a serious fall. Never allow only
one of the rear wheels to fall off of a curb.
