Also check the cable to see if it is still running smoothly by undoing the pinch bolt, holding the cable
in one hand and shifting with the other hand. Lubricate or replace the cable if it is hard or rough to
pull through. If neither of these things work, your derailleur could be worn or your derailleur hanger
misaligned (bent through an accident). Contact you dealer for further assistance.
Steering Alignment
Steering alignment should be done once a year or when excessive tyre wear is noticed. The front
wheels should 'toe in' between zero and 1/16" (0-2mm). That is, the measurement across the front of
the wheels should be between 0 and 1/16' less than the measurement across the back of the wheels,
at axle height.
A check can be made with a tape measure, and adjustment made by undoing one of the steering
connections (eg steering arm on kingpin) and screwing one of the rod ends (ball joints) in or out half
a turn at a time. Note you will notice that the rod ends have a jam nut (lock nut) to prevent them
unscrewing and to eliminate movement on the thread. This will have to be loosened first before the
rod end will turn and locked up again before each measurement is made.
A more accurate way is to use a trammel (Fig. 9). A
trammel has two pointers on a bar, which sits at the back
of the tyres at axle height. A mark is made on the back of
the tyre with a pen, the trike rolled forward half a wheel
revolution, and the marks compared against the
trammel pointers at the front of the wheels. This
method eliminates any inaccuracies due to wheel run
out etc.
Regular Folding
Regular folding should only require removal of the seat and folding of the main frame. The seat is
best removed by loosening the cap screw, pulling up on the rear of the seat until it releases. Hint you
may need to place a foot on the main frame and pull on the alternate sides of the seat until it
comes free.
If you have problems
frequently removing the seat, we will have
alternative seat pins available that will be of
a looser fit. Remove the cap screw the rest
of the way and the seat is off. Screw the cap
screw straight back into the seat. This way
you will know where to find it again.
Undo the quick release on the frame and
rotate it all the way forward to release the
safety catch (Pic. 10).
release is all the way forward press down on
the frame, grab the rear wheel and fold
forwards. Hint if the frame is reluctant to
fold you may need to press down on the
hinge with your foot.
Important. If you are unfamiliar with a quick release mechanism, PLEASE get a Greenspeed Dealer or local
bike shop/friend show you the finer points of safe use. The quick release on the frame is slightly different to
a wheel quick release in that it requires a 10mm wrench to add tightness to it should the adjustment loosen
of with time/wear. Please keep it tight enough that you can release/tighten with moderate hand effort.
