Riding & Safe Operating Guidelines; Ride Safety Checklist - Radio Flyer FLYER FOLDING CARGO Owner's Manual

Riding & Safe Operating Guidelines
It is the owner's sole responsibility to ensure safe riding. Among other things:
• Always obey road and traffic laws as applicable in your local area.
• Before riding in more dynamic conditions, practice and familiarize yourself with the
operations of the eBike, including braking, pedal assist, and throttle.
• Always wear a helmet that meets the US CPSC standard. Wearing a helmet can
prevent head injuries.
• After a crash or an incident, do not ride your eBike until you have a certified and
reputable bike mechanic inspect the eBike to ensure proper function of the eBike and
all its components.
• It is recommended not to ride at night or in wet weather. Ride at night and in wet
weather only if necessary.
• If it is unavoidable to ride at night or in wet weather:
– Wear reflective or light-colored clothing
– Ride slowly with caution
– Ensure the headlight and brake light are powered on and functioning properly
WARNING! The Flyer™ eBike is not meant for use in wet conditions. Water intrusion
can damage the eBike's electrical system and cause battery failure, electrical system
malfunction, or fire.

the brake disc moves slightly once the level is pulled.
• Ensure the brake light illuminates once brake lever is pulled.

are properly lubricated and tensioned.
• Check brake pads to ensure they are not over-worn.
• Ensure the lever system is secured to the handlebar (torque: 6Nm).
• Confirm the tires are inflated to 40–50 PSI.
• Check tires for leaks, signs of wear, tread degradation, or other
compromising damage.
• Verify wheel spokes are tight on both ends with no bending.
• Ensure tires and rims rotate straight without wobble.
• Confirm the rear wheel axle nuts are tight and the rear wheel is properly
secured (torque: 50Nm)
• Confirm the front wheel is properly secured by checking that the axle lever
is fully closed and tightened.
