MAINTENANCE

8. SADDLE: Fit the saddle into the seat post and secure with the 

locking lever/nut. The saddle is height adjustable but should NOT be 

extended further than the marker hole on the seat post. The correct 

saddle height should allow for a slight bend at the knee, when the ball 

of the foot is on the pedal at its lowest position. The saddle can also be 

moved horizontally along the seat post or tilted backwards or 

forwards. The clamp located under the saddle controls this 

movement.

9. BACK/TRUNK SUPPORT: If your tricycle is supplied with this 

accessory this unit slides into the square location tubing and secures 

beneath the saddle. This may be adjusted in depth. The trunk support 

can be moved vertically. This must be secured in place with the M8 

Cap Screws.

10. FOOTSANDALS WITH PULLEY SYSTEM: If your tricycle is 

supplied with this accessory all fittings are provided. Secure with nuts 

and plate to the underside of the pedal. The pulley wheel should be 

attached to the frame hook. The cord runs through the pulley wheel 

and is secured to the underside of each footsandal. The cord can be 

adjusted in length to suit the riders requirements or removed.

11.  KICK STAND:  This is fitted to TMX and Tracker tricycles with 

folding frame option.   NOTE:    Do not sit on tricycle when removing 

the front section of the tricycle as the kick stand is not designed to 

support the riders weight. The purpose of the kick stand is to assist 

assembly/disassembly of the folding option.

Our products are designed to require the minimum of maintenance: 

however the following maintenance procedures will help to ensure 

the safe and efficient operation of the tricycle.

1  HAND BRAKES

Squirt a few drops of oil on pivot and hand lever. Do not wax or oil 

rim. Always ensure that your brake blocks are free from oil or grease 

and regularly check them for wear. If brake blocks are worn they 

should be replaced. When fitting new brake blocks, ensure that they 

are the right way up, (narrow edge to the top of the rim nearest to the 

tyre). Apply the brakes and position the blocks so that they hit the rim 

squarely and tighten.

2  CONTROL  CABLES

Remove cable from the casing and grease inner cable. Replace worn 

or damaged cables. Do not kink cables. Cables stretch with use, so 

regular adjustment is necessary.

3  BEARING  ADJUSTMENTS

Head bearings - Keep tight and well lubricated. The handlebars must 

turn freely without any side to side play. Bottom Bracket bearings - 

The crank assembly should turn freely without side to side play. Keep 

the locknut tight and ensure the bearings are clean and well adjusted. 

NOTE: if the Bottom Bracket bearings are not maintained this can 

result in the chain becoming loose and may result in the Bottom 

Bracket axle having to be replaced.

4  WHEEL  ADJUSTMENTS

Front Wheel - Keep axle nuts tight. There should be no side to side 

play and the wheel should run smoothly. Adjustments can be made by 

tensioning or loosening the axle cones. The wheel should be centred 

in the fork and sitting securely in the fork drop-out. Ensure spokes are 

tight and the wheel is properly aligned.

Drive Wheel (Riders left hand rear wheel) - This wheel is connected 

to the axle by an internal thread.  This wheel is secured in place with a 

M14 Nyloc nut which has been cross drilled and pinned. Ensure that 

the pin is completely removed before attempting to remove the 

wheel nut and wheel. Ensure that the spokes are tight and the wheel is 

properly aligned.

Free Wheel (Riders right hand rear wheel) - This wheel rotates on the 

axle. The wheel and axle are secured in place by M12 Nyloc Nuts. If 

there is side to side movement on this wheel, this can be  eliminated 

by tightening the M12 lock nuts.  Ensure that the spokes are tight and 

the wheel is properly aligned.
