4.4 Brakes
4.4.1 Parking brake
All tandems are equipped with a parking brake. This brake takes care that the tandem stays
firmly at its position when mounting or dismounting the tandem. The operation of the
parking brake takes place by means of a lever that is present on the handlebar axle, closely
underneath the handlebars themselves. You put your tandem on the parking brake by
turning this lever upwards as far as possible. To unlock the parking brake you can turn the
lever downwards until the stop.
4.5 The lighting
Your tandem is provided with a safe and reliable lighting. Always check that all lights are
working when you have the lighting on. It is highly dangerous when you ride in the dark, in
the twilight or in the mist without lights. Check the following points if (part of) your lighting
does not function:

Check that the electric wires are connected to both lights and the dynamo and there is no
formation of rust.

Follow the electric wires and check that the insulation layer of the wires is still intact
everywhere (check that there is no short circuit because of naked wires).

Check that the lights in their fittings are free of oxidation, that contact is made and that
the filaments are not broken.

Check that the dynamo is adjusted well and is running on the middle of the tyre.

C
heck that the electric wires are not broken and / or are not jammed anywhere,
4.6 Safety lock
If you want to lock your tandem you should first turn the key
clockwise and hold it before you can push the handle downward.
If the lock is bolted the key jumps back and can be taken away.
4.7 Lifting
It is because of the weight, not possible to lift your tandem alone. Lifting with two persons is
possible.
Pay attention to lift the tandem only at firmest parts and not for example the accessories.
