Fusion Powerplay Platform Manual 06
Do not attach a child carrier, trailer, or similar accessory to a composite or carbon ber part or component, either directly or indirectly. For
example, do not attach a triangle to a rear axle when the rear triangle is made of composite or carbon ber. Likewise, do not attach a trailer
to a composite or carbon seatpost or a child carrier to a composite or carbon fork. Either may potentially apply unusual forces on your
bicycle frame or component which could result in damage and cause a complete failure, with the risk of serious injury or death. If you have
previously attached an accessory to a composite or carbon ber part or component, do not ride until you have had your authorized Rocky
Mountain Dealer conduct a careful safety inspection. Before riding with kids on you bicycle, please inform yourself of all applicable legal
requirements and regulations in your country and state or province. There may be restrictions on riding your bicycle with certain or any
accessory(ies). This is especially true for electric and pedal-assist bicycles.
WARNING1
As with all mechanical components, EPAC is subjected to wear and high stresses. Dierent materials and components may react to wear
or stress fatigue in dierent ways. If the design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly fail possibly causing injuries to
the rider. Any form of crack scratches or change of colouring in highly stressed areas indicate that the life of the component has been
reached and it should be replaced.
WARNING2
For composite components impact damage may be invisible to the user, the manufacturer shall explain the consequences of impact
damage and that in the event of an impact; composite components should either be returned to the manufacturer for inspection or
destroyed and replaced.
WARNING3
Do not expose the bicycle to prolonged direct sunlight or excessive heat, such as inside a parked car or near a heat source such as a
radiator. Excessive heat may degrade the material properties of components and parts such as batteries, composite parts such as
handlebars, crankarms, and other items made of composite materials, and various plastics components that contribute to the integrity of
the complete bicycles
WARNING4
The permissible total payload (rider plus luggage, and the empty weight of the EPAC) is 150kg.
WARNING5
Failure to follow the warnings in this section may result in damage to the components on your bicycle and will void your warranty, but,
most importantly, may result in serious personal injury or death. If your bicycle exhibits any signs of damage, do not use it and immediately
bring it to your Rocky Mountain Bicycles Retailer for inspection.
WARNING6
In the event of a crash or improper assembly, the handlebar and handlebar controls may be compromised and the rider’s response to
steering and braking safely may be adversely aected.
WARNING7
Never inate a tire beyond the lower of the two values of the maximum pressure marked on the tire’s sidewall and the maximum pressure
marked on the rim that the tire is installed on. Exceeding the recommended maximum pressure may blow the tire o the rim, which could
cause damage to the bike and injury to the rider and bystanders.
