The risk
A transmission leak may reduce lubrication and cause the transmission to overheat. This could lead to mechanical failure of the gearbox input shaft and, in rare adverse conditions, may result in a fire if the broken shaft comes into contact with oil-saturated acoustic insulation beneath the gearbox. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of two- or three-wheel vehicles and quadricycles.
Product: Electric quadricycle.
