Parking Brake; Friction Brake; Fitting The Accessories - Thomashilfen tGo Bedienungsanleitung

User manual – tGo
Function of the torso pad
To make it easier for the child to enter the tGo the torso pad can be rapidly released via the locking lever and pulled
out from behind. The locking lever can also be used to adjust the depth of the torso pad. Always ensure that the locking
lever is returned to the locked position after making adjustments.
Adjusting the belt
The belt can be adjusted in length using the sliding buckle. (fig. 28) The Velcro fastener at the end of the belt serves to
open and close the belt. (fig. 27).
Caution: The Velcro fastener must always be fully closed when the child is in the tGo.
Changing the number of pads
The number of pads can be adjusted flexibly to the child. For instructions see „additional pad elements" in the section
„Fitting accessories".
Locking/releasing the swiveling function of the saddle
The child must first always be removed from the tGo when changing between the swinging function of the saddle and
its fixed position. Then remove the saddle of the tGo. Remove the Allen bolt and washer located at the lower end of
the saddle's threaded rod. Now pull the threaded rod out from below. The threaded rod has different shaped notches
on each end. When the threaded rod is slotted onto its locator with the rectangular notch at the top, the position of the
saddle is fixed and the swinging function is deactivated.
When the threaded rod is slotted onto its locator with its other at the top, the swinging function is activated. After
making this adjustment, refit the saddle to the tGo (for instructions on how to fit the saddle see section 4, "Setup and
assembly").

Parking brake

To lock the parking brake, flip down the red levers (fig. 24) located on the underside of the frame in front of the wheels.
This locks the brakes (fig. 25). To release the parking brake, flip the red levers up.

Friction brake

The friction brake is applied using the red adjuster on top of the frame in front of the rear wheels. There is a mark on the
red adjuster. When this is pointing in the direction of travel the friction brake is released.
The braking action can be set progressively in five stages using the Allen wrench. To do this, turn the red adjuster
anti-clockwise (fig. 26). When the adjuster is turned through the fifth position the mark will again be pointing in the
direction of travel and the friction brake will be deactivated.
Fitting accessories
Installing and adjusting the vertical handles
Assembly
To install the vertical handles (available as accessories), the standard handlebars have to be replaced. On one side of the
handlebars, remove the foam cover by pulling it off the standard handlebars. (Fig. 30) Remove the small plastic screw
on the handlebar adapter using a screwdriver (Fig. 31) and set the screw aside. Remove the steering tube by guiding the
side without the foam cover through the ring in the handlebar adapter. Loosen the hexagon screw on one of the horns.
Remove the horn and slide the handlebars through the ring in the handlebar adapter so that the screw of the handlebar
adapter faces away from the tGo (Fig. 32). Retighten the screw on the handlebar adapter. Slide the horn onto the hand-
lebars so that the mounting screw faces away from the tGo and tighten it (Fig. 33). Before using, ensure that the screws
are firmly tightened.
