Recommended Checks Before Riding

are in good condition before riding.
•Front tyres should be inflated to 45PSI and rear tyres to 70PSI, with a suitable amount of tread remaining and
no obvious damage.
•Brakes should be able to lock the wheels that they act on.
•Lights should be clearly visible and functioning as designed.
•Windows should be clear and not obstruct the view out of the vehicle.

Seat Adjustment - Height
Each rider should adjust the seat height before use. This can easily be adjusted without any tools.
1 . Pull out the lever under the seat.
2 . Raise or lower the seat.
3 . Push in the lever.
If the lever when pushed in does not hold the seat tight, pull the lever out and rotate it one
full rotation clockwise before pushing the lever back in. Repeat if necessary.
If the lever is too stiff to push in, pull the lever out and rotate it one full rotation anti-clockwise
before pushing the lever back in. Repeat if necessary.
4
Seat Adjustment - Tilt and Slide
The seat can be tilted and slid backwards and forwards if necessary. A 6mm Allen key is required for this.
1 . Using a 6mm Allen key, loosen the two Allen bolts on the underside of the seat.
2 . Tilt and slide the seat to the desired position.
3 . Tighten the two Allen bolts with the Allen key.

Locking and Unlocking
The brake levers are equipped with an additional small rotating catch. When this is engaged
the brakes will be held in the ON position. Additionally, a lock can prevent the catch being released.
1 . To engage, the brake lever, the brake should be pulled with three fingers,
whilst using the index finger pull the catch to lock the brakes on.
This will hold the brake ON when the lever is released.
2 . Pull the brake levers to unlock the catch
3 . The brake catch can then be permanently locked with a key to prevent the brake being released.
When not sat on the seat, the rider must always engage the catches for both front and rear brakes.

Battery and 12v system
Battery Charging and Removal
•The bike should be placed on level even ground and brakes engaged and locked on.
•To remove the battery, turn the key anticlockwise to open the battery box lid. Unplug
the battery and lift using the handle.
•The battery can then be taken elsewhere to be charged.
•The battery can be charged on the bike or removed and charged elsewhere e.g.,
domestic 3 pin socket.
WARNING the charger is not water-proof.
12 Volt Electrics
•EAV Cargo has made available a 12-volt fused outlet in the front light box.
•The main 40amp fuse is located near the steering column (take care as this is 48 volts)

Safety and conditions recommendations
The weather conditions, road conditions and environment of the planned route should be considered before
riding.
•The rider must wear a suitable helmet and high visibility clothing.
•When manoeuvring in tight spaces, the display should be set to low assistance, preferably using the throttle.
•We recommend the rider has some knowledge of the highway code and has taken a bike induction before
riding on public roads.
•Ice and high winds can be dangerous.
•Proceed with caution if there are yellow, amber or red weather warnings.

Cargo Box

•With the battery on, use the electric solenoid fob to open
the rear cargo box
•Open the secondary door using the handles on the
inside of the box
•To close the cargo box, close the door firmly as it
operates with an electric ‘slam lock’
•This will automatically lock the door for security
Cargo Box Manual Lock Override
If the battery has failed or the door opening locks have failed,
Use the manual override key on both the top and bottom locks.

Cleaning
Windscreen
•The polycarbonate windscreen should only be cleaned with ‘Rain-X 2-in1 Glass Cleaner + Rain Repellent’
and a soft cloth. Rain-X will also help the windscreen to remain clean in wet weather. The inside of the
windscreen should be treated in the same way to avoid fogging.
Body
•The body can be cleaned with soapy water and rinsed with a hose or a watering can. Care should be taken
to avoid getting mechanical or electrical components wet when washing with soapy water or degreasers.
Pressure washers must not be used - high pressure water could damage the vehicle
and cause water ingress in sensitive components.
