On inclines a maximum speed of 5 km/h / 3 mph is prescribed,
otherwise there is a risk of the brakes overheating leading to
possible brake failure.
The maximum permissible speed for using the brake system
with the carrier on level stretches is 15 km/h / 9 mph.
As part of the use as intended, you should also follow this
Owner’s Manual and comply with the prescribed maintenance
requirements.
Use not as intended
Any use that goes beyond the above is not as intended.
Use not as intended arises from overloading the carrier,
excessive speed and improper repair of defects or
modifi cations.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages arising from use that
is not as intended – this is at the risk of the user.
Safety Instructions
General safety instructions
Before use, please read the safety instructions in
Sections 6 and 7.
Warning against unauthorised modifi cations
For reasons of safety, unauthorised rebuilds of and/or
modifi cations to the brake system are not permitted.
The brake system is only to be used as supplied by the
manufacturer, permanently attached to the Chariot CX.
Conversion of the brake system to other carriers is not
permitted.
Retrofi tting of the brake system to an older Chariot CX model
or other carrier is not permitted.
Unauthorised rebuilds and modifi cations render the warranty
invalid.
Use as a wheel brake
During travel the carrier can be decelerated and brought to a
stop by operating the brake from the brake lever. The brake
allows you to counteract unintended acceleration on inclines.
Before using the brake system for the fi rst time, acquaint
yourself with its braking effect in a safe place and away from
road traffi c.
Brakes transform kinetic energy into heat and for this reason
heat up.

DANGER
Do not touch the brake drum at the wheel centre after a long
period of use, as the brake drums can become hot and there
is a risk of getting burnt.
In the even of use not as intended the brake may overheat. This
may lead to reduction in braking force or even brake failure.
DANGER
On inclines a maximum speed of 5 km/h / 3 mph is therefore
highly recommended, otherwise there is a risk of the brakes
overheating, leading to possible brake failure.
Please note that the brake system is only designed to
decelerate the carrier with its permissible maximum weight.
DANGER
During inline skating, for instance, the brake system is not
suitable for decelerating the transporter weight as well as
your own weight. You will need to also apply the deceleration
procedures that are possible in inline skating.
Use as a parking brake
The brake system can also be used to secure the carrier
against running away when it is parked.
For this, the brake lever has to be operated and blocked with
the locking pushbutton (F).
