Position heavy luggage in such a way that the heaviest point is as low down as possible, e.g. in packing
●
bags.
Always ensure that it is not possible for tensioning belts or cables to get into moving parts, e.g. the
●
rotating rear wheel or the pedal crank.
10.4 Bell
The bike bell used on your Carqon is a metal bell, which emit a high ringing sound, used to help signal the
rider's presence to other road users.
Push the bell button and then let it spring back to
●
produce a signal.
Position the bell on the handlebar in such a way that you
●
can reach it comfortably, without removing your hand
from the handlebar grip.
10.5 Prop stand
Your Carqon is equipped with a prop stand. With the help of
the prop stand, you can park the flatbed when it is not in use.
10.5.1 Using the prop stand:
Hold the cargo bike securely with both hands and push the flatbed forward so that the prop stand
●
springs up.
The prop stand will remain in this position whilst you ride.
●
In order to lift the flatbed onto the prop stand, position yourself to the left of the handlebar next to the
●
flatbed.
Position yourself closer to the handlebar.
●
Place your foot on the protruding part (1) of the prop stand and pull the bicycle with both hands on the
●
handlebars into the parking position.
