Squeeze the brake lever hard in the direction of the handlebar
grip until the locking pushbutton can be pushed in without
encountering any appreciable resistance. Push it in until it locks.
Brake lever in the parked position
DANGER
Please ensure that the locking pushbutton is fully pushed in.
If this is not done, the brake lever could be released and the
parked carrier could roll away.
DANGER
When parking the carrier, make sure it cannot tip over. Al-
ways check that the carrier cannot run away. If the carrier is
given a push, it must immediately come to a stop once it has
been released. When parking on an incline, always be ready
to hold the carrier in position if need be. Wear a wrist strap if
possible.
To release the brake lever, squeeze the brake hard in the
direction of the handlebar grip: a spring mechanism will make
the locking pushbutton pop out and the brake lever will spring
back into its released position.
Adjusting the brake system
Your Authorized Chariot Carriers will hand the carrier over to
you with a fully adjusted brake system.
Inevitable wear on the brake pads eventually leads to the brake
lever having to be pulled closer and closer to the hand grip
so as to obtain the braking force required. At the same time
the braking force that can be obtained via the parking brake is
reduced.
Once there has been a noticable increase in the amount of play
when operating the brake lever, the brake system has to be
re-adjusted.
Unequal wear of the brake pads, or other factors, can also lead
to the brakes not operating with equal force making the carrier
pull to one side on braking. Here too it would be a good idea to
re-adjust the brake system.
We recommend that, where possible, brake adjustment be left
to your Authorized Chariot Retailer.
However the description that follows will allow you to adjust the
brake system yourself if no Authorized Chariot Retailer can be
reached. When adjusting, proceed with care, as safe braking
depends on correct brake adjustment.
TIP
We recommend that you always take the Owner’s Manual
with you on your fi rst journeys in case brake adjustments
need to be made.
