Ca Go FS200 Vario Organizer Set
Product Information
The FS200 Vario is a versatile cargo area that can be fitted with the
Organizer-Set. The Organizer-Set is designed to create smaller compartments
and increase storage space. It consists of two side walls that form a guide
rail adapted to the dimensions of
Euroboxes. Euroboxes can be securely fixed in place and transported without
slipping.
The Organizer-Set is delivered with the following components:
- Side wall left
- Side wall right
- M5x5 Countersunk screw (16x)
- M5x8 Sleeve nut (16x)
- Lengthwise divider (2x)
- Cross divider (2x)
Product Usage Instructions
-
Before each trip, ensure that all parts of the Organizer-Set are securely in place.
-
When attaching the load to the FS200 Vario, make sure that the tension on each strap does not exceed 150 N (approx. 15 kg). Exceeding this tension may cause damage to the aluminium frame. If the load is attached only to the lightweight panel, the maximum
tensile stress is 100 N (approx. 10 kg). Avoid using commercially available ratchet straps that can exert higher tensile forces. -
When loading the cargo bed, ensure that the cargo does not interfere with the steering and that the full swivel angle of the handlebars remains free at all times. The CrossBars limit the load space that can be safely used.
-
Always properly secure the load when transporting objects. The maximum load on the cargo bed is 70 kg. Make sure the load is evenly distributed to maintain proper driving characteristics. Inadequately secured loads can lead to unmanageable driving situations. Take extra caution when transporting liquids that can move freely.
-
The side walls of the Organizer-Set provide a contact surface for the Euroboxes, which are held and guided laterally. Additional securing is necessary to prevent the Euroboxes from slipping forward or jumping out of position in the event of a bump. If using
the Euroboxes without the side walls, ensure they are also secured against sliding sideways. -
During assembly, distinguish between the left and right side panels marked “L” and “R” on the inside. Fit the side panel so that the letter is at the front in the direction of travel. Fold the lightweight panel along the milling for proper installation. The double-layered side wall provides necessary stability.
The present assembly instruction is the translation of the original assembly instructions.
Safety notices
This user manual contains various types of notice. The notices are designed as follows:
-
Danger
Potential hazards for your health and the health of your co-riders and other road users if you fail to observe the respective instructions or do not take corresponding precautions. -
Caution
Warns you about incorrect behaviour that can result in material and environmental damage. -
Notice
Provides information about how to handle the product or refers to a passage in the user manual that deserves special attention.. -
Separate instructions
Refers you to other assembly instructions for your FS200 Vario which describe the respective assembly step in more detail if needed.
General information
The FS200 Vario can be fitted with the Organizer-Set, which is used to create smaller compartments and increase storage space. The two side walls form a guide rail which is adapted to the (standard) dimensions of Euroboxes. Euroboxes can thus be fixed in place and transported without slipping. (Fig. 1).
Intended use
-
The FS200 Vario cargo area is not suitable for transporting passengers in any version.
-
Before each trip, check that all parts of the Organizer-Set are securely in place.
-
The tension on each strap must not exceed 150 N (approx. 15 kg). Exceed-ing this tension may cause damage (= plastic deformation) to the alumin-ium frame. If the load is attached only to the lightweight panel (Fig. 6), the maximum tensile stress is 100 N (approx. 10 kg).
Commercially available ratchet straps can exert much higher tensile forces due to the lever action and should not be used. -
When loading, it is important to ensure that the cargo does not inter-fere with the steering, i.e. that the full swivel angle of the handlebars remains free at all times and that no part of the cargo interferes with the movement of the wheels. The Cross-Bars limit the load space that can be used safely.
-
Always ensure that the load is properly secured when transporting objects. The maximum load on the cargo bed is 70 kg. The driving char-acteristics of the FS200 will change depending on the load. Please ensure that the load is evenly distributed. Inadequately secured loads can develop their own momentum, which can lead to unmanageable driving situations. The transport of liquids can also be critical if they can move freely (e.g. open tubs, half-full canis-ters).
The side walls provide a contact surface for the Euroboxes (Fig. 2), which are held and guided laterally. However, additional securing (Fig. 3) is necessary as the Euroboxes could slip forward or jump out of position in the event of a bump. It is also possible to transport Euroboxes without the side walls, but the use of space is not as effective. In this case, the boxes must also be secured against sliding sideways.
Scope of delivery
Organizer-Set:
- Side wall left
- Side wall right
- M5x5 Countersunk screw, 16x
- M5x8 Sleeve nut, 16x
- Lengthwise divider, 2x
- Cross divider, 2x
Assembly
For assembly, a distinction is made between the left and right side panels. They are marked ‚L‘ and ‚R‘ on the inside. The side panel must be fitted so that the letter is at the front in the direction of travel. The lightweight panel is folded along the milling (Fig. 5). The side wall is double layered to provide the necessary stability.
Each side panel is fixed using eight (8) M5 screws and M5 sleeve nuts through the holes in the plastic plates. First at the front and back, then at the holes provided in the base plate (Fig. 6). The screws are screwed on from the rear using the sleeve nuts supplied and tightened to 4–5 Nm (Fig. 4, pos. 3 and pos. 4). Finally, check that the side panels are tight and secure.
To remove the battery and open the battery compartment, the cross dividers must be removed.
The next step is to insert the length and cross dividers. (Fig. 7 and 8).
General notes on care
Water is often sufficient to clean the FS200 Vario Organizer-Set. If
necessary, a mild detergent such as washing-up liquid or soap can be used.
The Vario platform consists of a tubular aluminium frame and lightweight
plastic panels, some of which are reinforced with aluminium sheets. All
materials are recyclable.
