10. USE

 

 
10.1 Using for the First time 

When using your three-wheeler for the first time, find yourself a large, unoccupied 
area where you can try it out.  
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
10.2 Mounting 

Activate the parking brake before mounting. This makes mounting the bike easier 
and safer.  
 

10.3 Cycling 

Release the parking brake and start pedalling slowly. The bike will start moving. If 
you have a bike with gears, make sure it is in first gear. This makes it easier to start 
pedalling. 
 

10.4 Steering 

At first, steering a three-wheeler might seem a little different to steering an ordinary 
bike. The three-wheeler tends not to lean naturally into a turn. Use you arms, and not 
your body, to steer. For sharp turns, lean your body slightly into the turn. This will 
keep both you and your bike stable. 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

Reduce speed when turning. Especially on sharp turns. 

 

 

Turning too fast will reduce your stability. This can lead to 

 

 

physical and/or material damage.

 

 

 

Avoid sudden and exaggerated turning movements. These will 

 

 

destabilise you and your bike. This can lead to physical and/or 

 

 

material damage.

 

Recommendations for safe cycling: 

 

Use a safety helmet.

 

 

Check before using the condition and functioning of 
brakes, tyres, rims and steering.

 

 

Braking distance can be longer under wet weather 
conditions.

 

 

Inform yourself about relevant regulations for the use of the 
bike on public roads.
