06 2. Product description.
2.1 General information
All base frames are made of aluminium, which is non-corroding and pow-
der-coated. All other materials used are protected against corrosion th-
rough the use of stainless steel, aluminium or plastic. All important parts,
such as the saddle, handlebars or also the pedals, can be individually ad-
apted to the individual requirements. Thanks to special accessories, users
can be positioned e.g. at the torso or in the calf area / foot area. The tricy-
cles generally have a brake hub / backpedal hub brake on the rear wheel
(except for those with a rigid sprocket) and an air pressure-independent
parking brake on the front wheel.
2.2 Handling and transport
The momo tricycle. is not intended for carrying since it is equipped with
wheels. Should you have to carry the equipment due to obstacles, ensu-
re that all moving parts are tightened. Then two people should position
themselves next to the tricycle, grip it on the left and right of the frame
and carry it to the required location. To transport the tricycle, reduce all
adjustments to their most compact size (saddle height, handlebar height,
remove accessories etc.).
2.3 Application areas, use according to the intended purpose
The momo tricycle. is a medical product of risk class 1 and was designed
for children, youths and adults for outdoors. This tricycle permits users with
disabilities (see indications) to move independently. The physiotherapeutic
treatment is supported and the support and balance reactions as well as
movement coordination are trained. Any other use or use over and abo-
ve this purpose shall be considered not in accordance with the intended
purpose.
2.3.1 Indications
The momo tricycle. is suited for users with neuromuscular disorders (e.g.
cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy), who cannot use standard bicycles or
vehicles, not even with commercial support wheels, due to their disabilities.
To ensure mobility in outdoor areas and participation in social life (integra-
tion in a group of persons of the same age) and/or to improve the support
and balance reaction/movement coordination within the scope of physio-
therapeutic treatment (regular measures of physical therapy)

07 2. Product description.
2.3.2 Contraindications
In general, the indication should be accompanied by a doctor/orthopae-
dist. It should therefore be clarified prior to procurement whether contrain-
dications exist for the patient. Any danger to the user or others through the
use of a tricycle should be excluded. In general, any type of pain repre-
sents a contraindication.
2.4 Use not in accordance with the intended purpose / warning guidelines
• Correct usage of the product requires precise and careful training of the
accompanying person.
• Replace bent handlebars and handlebar stems immediately!
Breakage may occur in the event of continued use or repairs.
• The vehicle may only be used on stable and flat ground.
• Please observe the "Technical data" in these instructions for use for the
maximum permitted patient weight.
• Always wear light-coloured and distinctive clothing!
• Always be ready to brake, in particular in steep terrain and sections
which are not easy to assess!
• Show consideration for other people who are walking or hiking!
• Do not hang loads on the handlebars; this compromises the travel
safety.
• Test the fastenings for the pedal cranks, pedals and, if applicable,
the wheels regularly
• For your own safety, we recommend that you always use your vehicle
with a helmet. Please ensure in particular that the helmet is of good
quality. It should accord at least with the legal regulations or
recommendations (standard: EN 1078 or ANS)!
• Check that the brakes, lights and bell function properly prior to each
journey!
• Ensure that your vehicle accords with the legal requirements!
• Only ride if the bicycle is in proper condition!
• Do not use headphones so that you can remain aware of warning
sounds.
• If a push rod is mounted, it must only be used to guide the vehicle. The
push rod is NOT suited for relocating the bicycle or for lifting or tilting!
• In wet conditions, the braking distance of your tricycle will become
longer. Therefore, always ensure that your speed remains such
that you can stop at any time.
• The tricycle is not suitable for carrying a second person. The
consequences arising from such use, which is not in accordance with
the intended purpose, shall not fall within the scope of responsibility of
the manufacturer.

08 2. Product description.
• The tricycle basket may only bear loads of up to 20 kg.
• When adjusting the tricycle there is the risk of trapping or crushing limbs.
• Users who have diculty reading must have someone read these
Instructions for use aloud so that they understand how to use
the product.
2.5 Equipment in accordance with StVZO
For roadworthy tricycles, the following components are specified in accor-
dance with the German Road Trac Regulations:
• Two brakes functioning independently of one another
• A bicycle bell with a clear ring
• Headlamps, rear lamp with reflectors, large-area reflectors, pedal
reflectors, 2 yellow spoke reflectors or white reflecting rings on each
wheel, and front reflectors in the design tested for the construction type.
• A bicycle trailer may only be used on bicycles with a sturdy frame and
fork construction. Also important are strong bicycle brakes at the front
and rear. Users must remember that the riding characteristics of the
loaded trailer change substantially in comparison to operation of the
bicycle on its own.

2.9 Drive possibilities
The momo tricycle. can be equipped
with the following drives:
Rigid sprocket
During active pedaling, the rigid spro-
cket supports the user in overcoming
the "dead"/apex point of the crank.
A passive user is assisted in pedalling
constantly; in addition it permits travel
forwards or backwards.
Changeover from rigid sprocket to neutral hub
In addition to the functions of the rigid sprocket, the drive can be uncou-
pled and thus the passive pedalling can be interrupted, for example for
transfer distances.
Freewheel brake hub (with backpedal brake)
The freewheel brake hub allows the user to stop and start pedalling as
they wish. They can brake by pedalling backwards.
Extra-light transmission
An extra-light transmission can be selected for all the above-mentioned
types of drive. Here a larger pinion on the rear axle permits improved force
transmission and thus makes it easier for the user to start pedalling.
Transfer between the rigid sprocket, idling hub and 7 gear freewheel brake
hub with reverse option
This option combines the functions of the above-mentioned drives. Using
a switch lever (A), it is possible to select between a rigid sprocket, idling hub
and the 7 gear freewheel brake hub with reverse option. To do this, pull the
level (A) out of the recess and allow
it to engage in the required position
in order to select between the die-
rent drive versions. In the left-hand
recess, the rigid sprocket, in the cen-
tral recess the idling hub and in the
right-hand recess the 7-gear free-
wheel brake hub with reverse option
can be activated.
A

16 2. Product description.
3 or 7-gear freewheel brake hub (with backpedal brake)
Using the 3 or 7-gear freewheel brake hub, the user can stop and start
pedalling at will. They can brake by pedalling backwards. The user-friendly
3 or 7-gear hub gear system permits switching of gears when the tricycle
is at a standstill. Switching takes place using the twist grip shifter on the
handlebars.
3 or 7-gear neutral hub (without backpedal brake)
Using the 3 or 7-gear neutral hub, the user can stop and start pedalling at
will. They can also bring the pedals into the optimum position to start using
the neutral gear. The user-friendly 3 or 7-gear hub gear system is suitable
for any terrain and also permits switching of gears when the bicycle is at
a standstill. Switching takes place using the twist grip shifter on the hand-
lebars.
3 or 7-gear freewheel brake hub with reverse option
Using the 3 or 7-gear freewheel brake hub, the user can stop and start
pedalling at will. In addition, they can ride backwards. The user-friendly
3 or 7-gear hub gear system permits switching of gears when the tricycle
is at a standstill. Switching takes place using the twist grip shifter on the
handlebars.
7-gear freewheel brake with wheel brake (without backpedal brake)
In the 7-gear freewheel hub with wheel brake forward, the movement can
be interrupted as desired and be converted in free backwards pedaling in
further forward drive. The user-friendly 7-gear hub gear system is suitable
for any terrain and also permits switching of gears when the bicycle is at
a standstill. Switching takes place using the twist grip shifter on the hand-
lebars.
2.10 The initial riding attempts
Please remember that, prior to setting o on your own, you must first
practice with an accompanying escort in order to learn how to deal with
riding around curves on the tricycle, as this is where the risk of accidents
is greatest. Always ride around curves as slowly as possible. Please also
remember that the widest part of your tricycle is behind you. Therefore,
practice using appropriate obstacles so that you learn to estimate the
width of your tricycle better.

17 3. Settings.
Settings and adjustments to the product or accessories may only be made
by people who have been given the necessary instructions by a medical
product advisor. Please ensure that none of the user's extremities are in the
respective area when making adjustments of any kind to minimise the risk of
injury.
3.1 Presettings
The momo tricycle. is supplied completely as-
sembled. Prior to initial use, however, the fol-
lowing pre-settings must be made.
3.1.1 Handlebar adjustment
You can find our scope of delivery for hand-
lebars on page 11 of these Instructions for use.
Height of handlebars
To adjust the height of the handlebars, remove
the protective cap from the hexagon socket
(A), loosen the hexagon socket (A) and adjust
the stem (B) to the required height. By tap-
ping the head of the hexagon socket (E) light-
ly with a hammer, the stem in the fork steerer
will loosen. Then re-tighten the hexagon so-
cket.
Ensure that the marking for the minimum inser-
tion depth (C) remains on the stem in the fork
steerer and therefore cannot be seen.
Handlebar adjustment
To adjust the handlebar position, loosen the
clamping screws (D), bring the handlebars
into the required position and then firmly
re-tighten the clamping screws (D). To change the tilt angle on the stem,
please loosen the clamping screw (F). The steerer factory setting is 20°. In
this way you can change the distance between the saddle and the hand-
lebars, and adjust the required handle height. Then firmly re-tighten the
screws again.
After each adjustment, please retighten all screw connections!
After adjustment of the handlebars, there must still be no tension placed on the
brake cables. If necessary, extend the cables!

3.1.2 Saddle adjustment
You can find our selection of saddle forms on
page 10 of these Instructions for use.
Saddle height
The height of the saddle can be adjus-
ted on the frame saddle tube (A) by pulling
the saddle post in or out. In order to ad-
just the height, please loosen the clamp
(B) and bring the saddle into the requi-
red height. Align the saddle and tigh-
ten the clamp (B) so tightly that the saddle support no longer twists.
Thesaddleheightistobere-setbasedontheinseamlength.Hereanycontrac-
turesofthekneesmustbetakenintoconsideration.Thesaddleheightshouldbe
inspected when the user is sitting on the saddle. The leg extension should
not be 0°. In the upper position of the pedal, the knee flexion should not be
more than 90°. Should it not be possible to achieved this setting through
the saddle height, it is possible to undertake further settings through crank
shortening (see point 4.9 - 4.11).
Adjusting the saddle horizontally
Every saddle (except for the unicycle saddle)
can be minimally adjusted horizontally. To do
this, loosen the nuts (D) with a size 13 wrench
and push the caliper block (C) forwards or
backwards on the seat stays.
Adjusting the saddle with t-saddle post ho-
rizontally
In order to check the horizontal saddle positi-
on, turn the pedal crank horizontally forwards
and put the foot (while the rider is sitting on
the saddle) onto the pedal. Once the lower
leg is vertical, the saddle position is correct.
You can also loosen the two nuts (D) under
the saddle using a size 13 wrench, push the
saddle to the rear or forwards and re-tighten
the nuts.
During adjustment, the saddle post may not be
pulled out over the respective marking, as in this case sufcient clamping can-
not be guaranteed. The markings are in part designed differently.
After each adjustment, please retighten all screw connections!

3.2 Brakes
For the momo tricycle. dierent brakes are available, depending on the
user's individual requirements.
3.2.1 Parking brake
The parking brake supports the use
when climbing on and o the tricycle
and secures it against inadvertently
rolling away. To activate the parking
brake, press the lever (A) on the hand-
lebar stem (B) downwards. To release
the parking brake, push the lever up
again.
Always ensure that the brake or the brake
blocks function correctly and have been
adjusted (see below).
Adjustment of the parking brake or brake blocks
Ensure that the braking function im-
mediately takes eect on actuation
of the parking brake lever, taking the
necessary backlash into account.
Due to "settling" of the Bowden cab-
les and the natural wear on the bra-
ke blocks, it is necessary to reset the
brake or replace the brake blocks af-
ter a certain amount of time. Each gap
between the rim and the brake lining
should not be larger than 1.5 mm. To
do this, loosen the clamping screw (C), press the brake blocks together by
hand, pull the Bowden cable taut and then re-tighten the clamping screw.
If the brake blocks are not accurately aligned with the rim edge (D), you
must readjust them accordingly. In order to change the alignment of the
brake blocks, loosen the screws (E). Leave this work to your specialist dealer
in case of any uncertainty.
After each adjustment of the cantilever (V) brake, carry out a brake test. The
brake blocks may only be replaced by ones in an identical design. Observe the
manufacture name or marking and the type designation. New brake blocks
do not achieve the required braking effect until they have been used multiple
times.

3.2.2 Round handlebars with brake lever ring
Braking with round handlebars with brake le-
ver ring is done by gently pushing down the
ring (A) and is therefore suitable for users with
limited strength in arms and hands who re-
quire the round handlebars as support point
at the same time. The brake lever ring is cou-
pled with the rim brake.
3.2.3 Round handlebars with brake function
The braking function is triggered by simply
pressing the round handlebars (B) down-
wards. The round handlebars with braking
function is suitable for users with limited
strength in arms and hands.
3.2.4 Drum brake in front wheel
The brake lever for actuation of the drum
brake is located on the right-hand side
of the handlebars. If available, plea-
se use the front wheel drum brake always
only in connection with the backpedal brake
while riding the bicycle.
The braking effect can be reduced if the brakes
are used frequently. Therefore ensure to regular-
ly re-adjust the Bowden cable of the brake when
you notice a loss in braking power (see Point
3.2.1)
3.2.5 Backpedal brake
The backpedal brake is actuated by pedaling backwards. The drive op-
tions of the freewheel brake hub and the 3 or 7-gear freewheel brake hub
feature a backpedal brake.
The backpedal brake is only functional when the chain sits correctly! If the chain
jumps off, it is not possible to brake using the backpedal brake!
The rear wheel may block in case of strong braking procedures. Risk of crashes!
During long downhill runs, it is essential that you use the front and rear brakes
in order to avoid overheating of the rear hub brake. This may lead to brake mal-
functions!
