5.1 Tilting device
Using the tilting device, the accompanying
person can tilt the chassis easier, e.g. to drive
over a kerb.
The tilting device is mounted in the rear, lower
frame tube.
5.2 Swing-away anti-tip mechanism
The swing-away anti-tip mechanism
prevents the chassis from tipping
back.
Note:
When driving over steps or
curbs, the anti-tip mechanism (
A
)
must be swung in 180° to the front to
avoid touching the ground. Briefly
press the bar (
B
) down and then turn
180° inwards (
C
) - the bar automati-
cally clicks into place again with the
spring. Swinging back takes place in
the same way.
5.3 Knee lever brake
The knee lever brake serves as a par-
king brake. Check that the brakes are
in perfect working order and check
the air pressure in the rear wheels be-
fore each use. The brake is applied in
the direction of travel by swinging the
brake lever. The correct distance bet-
ween the tyres and brake is important
for the correct function of the brake. It
should be approx. 2 cm with the brake
released. This size can vary somewhat
depending on the tyre pressured or
the type of tyre used.
Guide:
The tyres should always be
pressed in lightly by the applied brake. It is possible to adjust the brake by
release the two Allen screws on the clamping block (
D
). Firmly tighten the
screws again.
