We wish you a lot of cycling fun!
Kind regards,
Tonnie Eijssink
Maker of the Vasco
Congratulations on your new Vasco
Would you like to cycle without worrying? With your Vasco we like to make your world
easier. You would probably rather go cycling than read the manual. This is why we have
put together a manual containing the most important and necessary information on the
safe use of the Vasco. Read this manual thoroughly before using the Vasco and always
follow the instructions it contains. To make the best use of your tricycle I will sometimes
give you a few tips, so that you can continue to cycle safely and have fun.
We are curious about your experiences and where you like to cycle. Would you like to
share it with us on Facebook? We love to hear from you!

•It is your responsibility to act according to the specific safety requirements of

according to the relevant legislation including a correct equipment of yourself
and your bike that the country in question requires.
Indication & application
Your Vasco has been specially developed for people who need extra support to be
able to cycle safely and securely. This may be because you like to experience more
stability or because of, for example, a neuromuscular disorder that can affect your
coordination or natural movement possibilities. The Vasco has been developed to
be used on normal public roads and cycle paths.

Huka has a standard 5 year guarantee on the frame and the fork of your Vasco.
Besides that you have a 2 year guarantee on the battery and other parts. All

•The guarantee does not apply to damage or defects to the Vasco that are
caused by wrong or injudicious use. The assessment of this lies with Huka B.V.
or one of its representatives.
•Also, the warranty does not apply to parts that are subject to wear and tear,
such as the chain, brakes and tires.
•Under no circumstances shall Huka be liable for any special or consequential
damages due to the negligence of the user of the Cortes. Even if Huka has
been notified of such damages.
•Applicable law may not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability or
damages. Thus, the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

ADVICE FROM TONNIE Write down the frame and key number of your
Vasco below. The number is important for guarantees, repairs or in case your
bike is stolen to report to your insurance company. The number can be found
just above the bottom bracket on the back of the seat post on the frame tube.

•The warranty and product liability in general can be voided if instructions in this
manual have not been followed. This is the case if maintenance work, technical
alterations, or additions to the bicycle have been carried out with non-original
Huka parts without Huka's permission. It also means that the CE-marking has
expired. The lack of a CE-declaration can lead to problems with the insurance of
the bicycle and with possible damage or liability.

First bike ride on the Vasco
The time has come. Your first experience on your own Vasco! Whatever bike ride
you do, your safety comes first! If it is your first time cycling on a Huka tricycle,
you may have to get used to it. The most important tip we can give you is that
you have to relax as much as possible while cycling. To make sure everything
goes as smooth as possible, we give you some instructions.
Safe on the road
Apart from your agility on the Vasco, which will improve as you use it, it is
important that your bike is in optimum condition when you take it out on
the road. We recommend that you take the following aspects into account:
•Before each use, check the condition and function of the brakes, tyres, rims
and steering system.
•Bear in mind that the braking characteristics change and the braking
distance may increase if the road surface is slippery.
•Make sure that any luggage is securely fastened and cannot move.
•Ride on flat and firm surfaces and avoid deep potholes, high thresholds and
puddles of water.
•Ride at an appropriate speed on wet or slippery surfaces, slopes or
precipices. When starting off on a steep slope, lean forward if necessary to
prevent the front wheel from lifting. When reversing on a slope, brake
carefully until you stop.
•Descend a slope at a moderate speed so that you can always come to a
stop in time and safely.
•Always lock your bike when parking it (with a cable lock if desired). Use the
parking brake to avoid the risk of driving off.
ADVICE FROM TONNIE Make sure that the handlebars and saddle are
properly adjusted before you start cycling. This way, you can assume the
correct posture on the bike.
