TRIKKE eV5 Owner Manual March 2013
A speed limiter switch is located on the cover of the controller box. When
set to “1” (Econo), speed will be limited to 20 km/h. When set to “2”
(Express), the maximum speed is 25km/h.
The eV5 can travel faster on descents because it has a freewheel inside
the motor. Beginners should use the speed control and limit their speed
to 20 km/h or less, until they feel safe to operate at higher speeds.
3.3 Accelerating
To accelerate turn the throttle back gradually, like on a motorcycle (using
the thumb and forefinger)
(fig. 18)
. The accelerator is sensitive and must
be rotated to progressively increase the torque and speed. Be careful
at the start cranking the throttle slowly until the vehicle starts to move.
Lean your body forward and force your weight onto your toes
(fig. 19)
. This
ensures the necessary weight on the front wheel, which is the traction
wheel. Once in motion, distribute your weight evenly between the front
and rear wheels. When moving, you can turn over the throttle to increase
speed and control. Avoid burning of rubber (spinning the motor freely) at
the start to not leave marks on the floor and prevent motor damage and
premature tire wear.
Avoid accelerating with the handlebar turned, since you can lose balance
and fall. Start with the front wheel aligned forward and then initiate the
turn of the handlebar once already in motion.
The eV5 can accelerate quickly, so try to ride at speeds appropriate to
your skill level and circumstances.
Crossing streets from a stand still requires well controlled acceleration.
Reducing speed (or stop) when riding at high speed, requires brake con-
trol and a safe distance.
