5.2 Using 4-Wheel and 2-Wheel Modes

The Lett460 trolley is designed with 4 wheels for easy maneuverability. For flat surfaces, push the trolley with all four wheels on the ground. When encountering stairs or curbs, tilt the trolley back to engage the two larger rear wheels, allowing you to pull it up or down.

5.3 Loading the Bags

• Main Bag: The main bag has a 40L capacity. Distribute items evenly to maintain balance.
• Thermal Bag: The integrated 10L thermal bag is suitable for keeping frozen or chilled items. Ensure the zipper is fully closed to maintain temperature.
• Pockets: Utilize the additional pockets for smaller items like wallets or keys.

5.4 Using the Safety Brake

The trolley is equipped with a safety brake. To engage the brake, locate the lever or pedal near the rear wheels and press or push it down. This will lock the wheels, preventing the trolley from rolling. Release the brake before moving.

5.5 Folding for Storage

To fold the trolley for compact storage, ensure the bag is empty. Release the frame locking mechanisms and gently push the handle downwards while lifting the base until the trolley folds flat. Secure with the safety closure if available. Removable wheels can be detached for even more compact storage.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning the Bag: The bag is removable and water-resistant. Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not machine wash or tumble dry. Allow to air dry completely before reattaching.
• Cleaning the Frame: Wipe the aluminum frame with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
• Wheel Maintenance: Periodically check the wheels for debris (hair, lint, etc.) and clean them to ensure smooth operation. Lubricate axles if necessary with a silicone-based spray.
• Storage: Store the folded trolley in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

7. Troubleshooting

• Trolley does not fold/unfold smoothly: Check for any obstructions in the folding mechanism. Ensure all locking levers are disengaged before folding. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to moving parts if stiff.
• Wheels are stiff or squeaky: Clean any debris from the wheel axles. If the issue persists, lubricate the axles with a suitable lubricant. Ensure wheels are correctly attached.
• Trolley feels unstable: Ensure the frame is fully locked in the open position. Distribute the load evenly within the bag, keeping heavier items at the bottom. Do not exceed the maximum weight limit.
• Brake not engaging: Check for any obstructions preventing the brake mechanism from fully engaging. Ensure the brake lever/pedal is pressed firmly.
