1. To stop, gently apply a gripping pressure to both brakes simultaneously (g. 2), this will slow down
and stop your Tri-Walker.
2. The brakes on your Tri-Walker have a park option (g. 3). To operate the park option, push
downwards on both brakes simultaneously. You will feel the brake make a very slight click. Your
brakes are now in the‘lock’ position.
3. To unlock, simply pull up the brake again, you will hear a slight click as the ‘park’ disengages (g. 4).
1. The Tri-Walker bag should
be tted when the walker
is set in the open position.
2. Take the strap situated
upon the upper side of
the Tri-Walker bag, and
wrap this around the
diagonal bar of the frame
(g. 5) and push the stud
fasteners together. Repeat
on the opposite side.
3. Take the strap on the
side of the Tri-Walker bag
and wrap this around the
vertical bar of the frame
(g. 6) and again push the
stud fasteners together.
1. Your brake system will require periodic adjustment. The brake adjustment is similar to bicycle
brakes.
2. (g. 7) shows the brake handle in its default delivered position. Should the brakes need adjusting
they can be tightened by unlocking Nut A and then unscrewing (anti-clockwise) Nut B. When the
brake arm (see g. 9) has a 3mm clearance then Nut A should be retightened. An example of a user
adjusted brake handle is shown in (g. 8).
3. When adjusted the brakes should work in both normal braking and in parking mode. If needed
then Nut B in (g. 7 & g. 8) can be turned a further anti-clockwise, which will tighten the brake
cable more.
