the bottom bracket axle. The pedal will thus reach the
maximum distance from the hip. Take your seat on the
trike. Your lumbar
region should rest rmly against the
back rest, your hip should be straight and not twisted
forward on one side. The ball of your foot (!) should
come to rest on the pedal with your leg straightened
to optimise leverage and eliminate any hip movement.
As a cross-check of the proper position, position the
ball of your foot - with your knee slightly bent - above
the pedal axle. Start with an approximate position and
correct
it after a few meters as needed, since the
position of the foot during travel may change the
v
alue set at standstill. As the seat is easily adjusted,
t
hat is no problem at all.
T
he seat is adjusted by opening the two quick releases
u
nderneath the seat. The seat can now be easily
moved in the desired direction. Once you have found
the perfect position, simply snap closed the levers on
the quick releases.
Danger!
Improperly fastened levers can open easily. The saddle
could therefore move uncontrollably during travel,
which could result in a serious accident. Always check
the proper seating of the levers before you take your
trike on the road!
Note: Tighten the knurled nut only slightly to
ensure proper function of the clamping.
Familiarise yourself with this mechanism in case of any
doubt. Please note that traction is achieved with a tilting
motion and not a screw movement!
Note: To avoid scratches on the seat rail, lubricate
the rail with commercially available resinfree
grease. Please also note sections 2.6 and 3.6.1
for the general use of quick releases.
