Backing-Up and Maneuvering in Tight Areas

CAUTION
Take care not to tangle the cables. KEEP the handles up to prevent the cables from becoming tangled in the crank assembly.
Backing Up
1. Turn the front wheel straight and put the handpedals in the up position.
2. Place one hand on a rear wheel (or ground) and the other hand on one of the handpedals and start to back up, keeping control of the handcycle
at all times.
Maneuvering in Tight Areas
If you cannot make a full turn, just crank a half or quarter crank, bring the crank back up again, turn a little bit a at time until you turn your way around.
If you need to turn a full 180, you will need to keep the handpedals in the up position so the cables do not get tangled up and push backwards on the
rear wheel with your other hand. Move the handcycle forward with the handpedals and use the rear wheels to manually push backwards until you are
turned around.
