29 TRIKKE eV5 Owner Manual March 2013
5. Warnings, safety information and riding tips
READ AND UNDERSTAND the sections of assembly, maintenance and safety in the owner’s man-
ual before riding. Always follow the directions and read all warnings.
• Always use proper safety equipment when riding the eV5 including a helmet approved by ANSI, Snell,
CPSC, ASTM or DIN EN1078. Use proper footwear and make sure that shoes with laces are properly tied
before riding.
• Avoid water, bumps, gravel, sand, cracks, uneven surfaces or obstacles that may suddenly block your way or
cause you to lose control. The eV5 is not intended for off road use. Avoid using at night.
• Riding with only one hand or no hands can be extremely dangerous. Use both hands to hold the han-
dlebar firmly at all times. Do not push too hard or apply uneven pressure to the two different sides of the
handlebar. Do not make sudden sharp turns or apply your body weight on the handlebar when turning.
Such actions can make the front wheel of the vehicle quickly turn to one side and causing the vehicle to
“jack-knife” or stop suddenly, which can cause fall and injury to the rider.
• Tricks, riding or rolling backwards and/or extreme riding are not recommended on the eV5. Riding this way
you can damage the product, voiding your warranty and may result in injury.
• Do not pull up on the handlebar because in doing so the rider can slip off the foot platforms, resulting in
serious injury. The rider must keep his weight within the area delineated by the three wheels and step on
the center of the deck, never on the back of the deck.
• Riding down hills is not recommended, especially for novice riders. The eV5 is designed primarily for use on
flat, dry asphalt. Extreme caution should be used when riding on any inclined surface.
• We recommend that you do not exceed the 135kg maximum total weight limit.
• A rider should be constantly on the lookout for obstacles, debris, cracks or holes in the riding path, allowing
them to be anticipated and avoided.
• Because of the speed increase, the risk of injury is increased when riding with the electric motor. Attention
to the ride is a constant.
• The braking distance required for a full stop will increase with speed. Practice braking with full stop at high
speed in a safe environment, to assess the distance required to stop.
• Be aware of low objects. You are taller than you think when you ride the eV5. Be ready to duck for tree
branches, street signs, etc..
• Whenever you ride, follow the traffic rules, including traffic signs, traffic lights and crosswalks. If you want
to know all the special laws governing the operation of the Trikke eV5, please contact the regulatory agency
in your area.
• Tire wear, puncture, or blowout may result in sudden loss of control, which can cause serious injury. Always
make sure that the tire maintenance is being done correctly.
