Braking systems
There are three braking systems on the Mini Crosser:
• Motor brake - adjusts vehicle speed also when going downhill.
• Magnetic brake - the magnetic brake is automatic and engages
when the Mini Crosser stops. In an emergency, the Mini
Crosser can be stopped instantaneously by turning of the
joystick. Please note that this will cause very sharp braking.
The rear wheels will lock.
Must NOT be used in the normal course of driving.
The brake must never be disengaged mechanically using the
disengagement lever on a slope. This function is only designed
for use when pushing the Mini Crosser on a fl at road.
• Handbrake - intended as an emergency brake and parking
brake. It must be operated with caution when driving in
slippery conditions and downhill.
General safety advice
Make sure that the backrest is upright and the seat is as low as
possible.
Positioning belts are recommended if the user is unable to
maintain a good driving posture independently.
Adjust your driving to road conditions. Take account of light,
traffi c and weather. Be particularly careful when driving in the
dark or in bad weather, such as rain or snow. Avoid driving on
gradients with poor surfaces, such as: snow, ice, new-mown
grass, wet grass and wet leaves.
Never drive when under the infl uence. This applies not only to
alcohol, but also to drugs and medicines.
When using the handbrake as a parking
brake, lock it in braking position by
pressing the button in while applying the
brake.
To release the brake, press the button
again.
