Safety measures
Ensure the tricycle is in good condition each time before using it. Check
before each ride that the brakes are in order. Check the lighting and make
sure there is enough tyre pressure.
Regularly check if the wheels, the handlebars and the saddle are properly
fixed and also whether all screw joints are tight.
Only use the tricycle on a solid and level surface.
Make sure that wide trousers or lose hanging clothing don't get caught in the
chain, spokes or pedals.
Do not use a pressure washer or a steam cleaner for the cleaning of the
tricycle.
Block the tricycle to stop it from moving when you are getting on or off the
tricycle. Do this by using the parking brake and holding the tricycle. Also use
the parking brake if the wheelchair is driven on or off the ramp.
Always lock the tricycle when leaving it unattended.
Never drive without a passenger. This will cause instability of the bike and
will lead to dangerous situations.
Never place your feet or other limbs under the ramp. You can be hit by
moving parts and suffer from bruises.
Always place the wheelchair forward, in the driving direction, on the ramp.
Your wheelchair is suitable for use when the centre of gravity can be placed
above the front wheels of the bicycle and when it can be fixed according to
the instructions on page 7.
Make sure that once the wheelchair is placed on the ramp, the wheelchair's
weight causes the ramp to fold up automatically. When that is the case, the
centre of gravity of the wheelchair is situated above the front wheels of the
bicycle. This creates the correct weight distribution of the bicycle.
Extra attention is required for an electric wheelchairs because these often
have different weight distributions as a result of which the centre of gravity
may not be positioned correctly.
Make sure that no dangerous speed develops when driving downhill and
entering tunnels. Brake on time and don't ride faster than 25 kilometres per
hour.
