1. التفريغ والتفتيش
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Inspect for any damage during shipping. Retain all packaging materials until assembly is complete.
2. تجميع الاطار
The Meridian features a low step-through aluminum frame. Ensure the frame is stable before attaching other components.
3. تركيب العجلات
Attach the front wheel and the two rear wheels according to the instructions provided in the separate assembly guide. Ensure all wheel nuts are securely tightened.
4. Handlebar and Seat Adjustment
- المقاود: Adjust the handlebars to a comfortable height and angle, ensuring they are aligned with the front wheel. Tighten the stem bolts securely.
- مقعد: Insert the seat post into the frame and adjust the seat height so your feet can comfortably touch the ground while seated. The large cruiser dual spring saddle is designed for comfort. Secure the quick-release lever or seat post bolt.
5. Brake System Setup

التشغيل
1. أساسيات ركوب الخيل
The Schwinn Meridian tricycle offers enhanced stability compared to a two-wheeled bicycle. Mount the tricycle using the low step-through frame. Begin pedaling gently. Due to its three-wheel design, cornering requires a different technique than a bicycle; lean slightly into turns and maintain a controlled speed.
2. نظام الفرامل
Your tricycle is equipped with a front linear pull brake and a rear drum brake. Apply both brakes simultaneously and smoothly to slow down or stop. Avoid sudden, hard braking, especially with the front brake only, as this can cause instability.
3. Single-Speed Drivetrain
The tricycle features a simple single-speed drivetrain, ideal for flat to gently rolling terrain. There are no gears to shift, making operation straightforward. Maintain a comfortable pedaling cadence.
4. Using the Rear Folding Basket
The rear folding basket provides ample storage for groceries, bags, or other cargo. To use, unfold the basket and ensure it is locked into position. To fold, release the locking mechanism and collapse the basket. Always distribute weight evenly in the basket and avoid overloading it. Remember, the basket is not suitable for carrying children, pets, or other passengers.

- تنظيف: Clean the frame and components regularly with a mild soap and water solution. Avoid high-pressure washing, which can damage bearings.
- العناية بالإطارات: Check tire pressure weekly and inflate to the recommended PSI. Inspect tires for wear, cuts, or embedded debris.
- فحص الفرامل: Regularly check brake levers for proper tension and brake pads/shoes for wear. Adjust or replace as necessary. Ensure brake cables are free of fraying or corrosion.
- تزييت السلسلة: Lubricate the chain every few weeks, or more often if riding in wet or dusty conditions. Use a bicycle-specific chain lubricant.
- التفتيش العام: Periodically check all nuts, bolts, and fasteners for tightness. Inspect the frame for any cracks or damage.
