Premium 12” (30cm) Wheeleez wheels

 are included. These wheels are ideally suited 

for PPG trikes with low weight, suberb suspension capabilities, flexibility and robustness 
on all types of surfaces, puncture resistance, easy field repairs, and flat tread with low 
grip to help self-correct wing oscillations 

 

Quality sealed steel bearings

 in all three wheels are included as standard equipment 

offering significantly improved wear and service life over nylon bearings are commonly 
used by the competition.

First Set-Up Assembly 

The first time you assemble the GRAZ

hopper

, it is helpful to have a few tools handy: a 

rubber mallet; two wrenches in 1/2”, and two wrenches in 7/16” to attach or tighten various 
bolts and nuts; a small flat head screwdriver; and a 3/16” allen wrench. Estimate 1 to 2 
hours to assemble and hang test your GRAZ

hopper

 
To begin assembly of the GRAZ

hopper

:

 

 

3.1

 

Start by separating and checking the parts

: the 

main frame, the wheels, the front fork components, the 
roll bar components, all hardware, and the harness(es). 
The small footprint of the basic components makes for 
simplified and inexpensive shipping of the GRAZ

hopper

3.2

 

Fill the Rolleeze wheels with the correct air 
pressure

 as listed on the tire.

 

ATTENTION

:

 Do not over-inflate the Rolleeze wheels. 

This could damage them. Be careful to not leave the 
Rolleeze wheels in the sun on a warm summer day or in a hot vehicle. Also, be careful 
when traveling to high elevations. The tires could burst or be damaged due to over-
inflation from high temperatures or drastic changes in altitude. 

3.3

 

Attach front fork.

 Attach bolt, saddles, washers, and nut to fork and main frame. 

See diagram below. 

 

3.4

 

Assemble the main rail components with the supplied hardware.

 Attach four 

rail pieces using supplied clevis pins with the key ring facing inwards. Use rubber 
mallet to gently align pieces together. Use a small flat head screwdriver to help put 
rings onto clevis pins. See diagram below.
