Steering
Swing the Steering Handle from side to side, it should feel smooth and positive without looseness
or backlash. With your hand, squeeze the two steering cables together at the Steering Unit. There
should be little or no slack in the cables to ensure good steering response. If looseness is felt, the
cables will need adjusting on the barrel adjusters at each end, or by pulling more cable through
the clamp.
If the motion of the Steering Handle feels
rough or it takes excessive force to move
the lever, the cables could be frayed or
damaged and will need replacing.
Check the Steering Handle for play at the
pivot joint, if there is looseness in the
forwards/backwards direction, check the
nut is tight and seek the advice of your
Mountain Trike dealer if the looseness
persists.
Check the position of the Steering Handle
corresponds to the correct position of
the rear wheel. When the lever is straight
and upright, the rear wheel should point
straight forward. At full lock in either
direction, the wheel should be close to 90
degrees to the forward direction. If the
wheel is not straight corresponding to the
lever, the cables must be adjusted.
Check the operation of the Steering Unit engage and disengage system. The module should
release easily and once engaged, be attached solidly with no looseness. If engaging or disengaging
is difficult, or the Steering Unit is loose when engaged, seek the advice of your Mountain Trike
dealer
WARNING -
Never ride your Mountain Trike if the steering cables are loose as this can
result in poor steering response which could cause you to lose control and fall.
