You can adjust the handrail height according to your height.

• Rotate the pull pin, loosen it, and pull it outward to move the handrail column up and down (Figure A).

If the handle lever is stiff, apply lubricating oil. Be aware that your hands may get dirty.

Emergency stop and use method of brakes

1. About emergency stop

The flywheel and pedals are linked. If the flywheel does not stop rotating, the pedals will not stop. Do not remove your feet from the pedals while they are rotating. In an emergency, press the brake knob downward until the bike stops.

2. How to use brakes

To stop after reaching a certain speed, place your hand on the knob and push it down to gradually add resistance to the wheels and stop the bike.

When moving the product, hold the front of the handle and push it down so the front wheels touch the ground.

To put it down, fix the front leg tube with your feet before lowering it.
