Care and maintenance

Cleaning

The brake internal areas must be dry and free of dirt. If the wheels are removed, the protective cap prevents dirt entering from outside.

Wear of the brake callipers, however, also gives rise to dust that clogs the inside.

If necessary, please clean using a dry and grease-free brush.

If you want to wash your Chariot with water, please leave the wheels in place, so that as little water as possible gets into the drum brakes. Nevertheless, after washing with water you should carry out a brake test, since contact with water cannot always be prevented and moisture reduces braking effi ciency.

Brake cables

Before each journey check that there are no kinks in or other damage to the brake cables.

Screw connections

After the fi rst 100 km, check that all screws and nuts are tight. If necessary, retighten.

After this, carry out a check that the screws and nuts are tight at regular intervals.
