the catch strap is not fastened, the trailer can separate from the bike. The bicycle
should be safety checked by a qualified bicycle mechanic before using the trailer.
•The child carrier becomes unstable if the manufacturer's recommended load is
exceeded. Do not use it for children who exceed the maximum permissible weight.
•Before each journey, make sure that both wheels are securely engaged in the axle
of the transporter.
•The trailer is not suitable for children under months. Children must be at least
months old and able to sit upright independently. If the transporter is used for
cycling, the child must be old enough to wear a helmet and sit upright. Consult your
pediatrician if the child is younger than one year.

seat belt.
•When using this child carrier with only one child, the child should sit on the right
side.
•The user of this child carrier must be aware of the hazards of cold wind and heat
exhaustion when a child is either less active due to sitting in colder temperatures
for extended periods of time or sitting in warm temperatures for extended periods
of time without adequate ventilation or hydration.
•If the child carrier is used as a bicycle trailer, the weather cover should be closed to
prevent dirt and dust from entering the carrier.
•If the child carrier is used for cycling, a reflector with a test mark must be visibly
attached to the rear.
•Before each ride, make sure that the hitched child carrier does not interfere with
the brakes, pedals or steering of the bicycle.

clamp into the holes on the side of the bicycle trailer and close the clamp. The
clamp is securely closed as soon as you hear a loud click.
Note: Opening and closing the clamp is not smooth and requires a certain amount
of force. This is necessary to guarantee a secure hold of the clamp.
3. The drawbar must always be mounted on the left side of the bicycle trailer. The
drawbar must not be mounted on the right-hand side.
1 2

Mo nting the axle co pling (q ick release)
The coupling is always mounted on the left-hand side of the tractor wheel, as seen in the
direction of travel . It consists of two parts: the drawbar head, which is attached to the
drawbar, and the axle coupling, which is attached to the axle of the rear wheel hub of the
towing bicycle . Before you mount the axle coupling, you must determine whether your bicycle
is suitable for towing a trailer. Check the owner's manual of the bicycle, ask the manufacturer
or ask a bicycle dealer.
WARNING! The axle coupli g must be fitted correctly. A i correctly mou ted axle
coupli g ca come loose while ridi g a d lead to accide ts with life-threate i g i juries.
1. Open the quick-release lever on the rear wheel of the traction bike or loosen the
hexagon socket screw (5 mm), depending on the version of the quick-release axle.
Often the direction of movement of the clamping lever is marked "OPEN".
2. Unscrew the quick-release axle nut anticlockwise. Be careful, there is a small spring
underneath that could jump away.
3. Place the axle coupling on the quick-release axle without removing the spring.
4. Screw the axle nut clockwise onto the thread of the quick-release axle with at least
five full turns.
5. Align the rear wheel and close the quick-release lever or tighten the hexagon
socket screw, depending on the quick-release axle version. The direction of
movement of the clamping lever is often marked "CLOSE" . The force you apply
must increase from about half way. In the last area shortly before the end position,
the clamping lever should be difficult to move . In the end position the lever must be
parallel to the frame and must not stick out.
. Check whether the quick-release is really tightly closed by trying to turn the closed
quick-release around its own axis . If the quick-release can be twisted, the clamping
force is not sufficient . Open the clamping lever and screw the axle nut half a turn
clockwise . Repeat steps 5 and . If the clamping lever cannot be closed completely,
open the clamping lever and screw the axle nut half a turn anticlockwise . Repeat
steps 5 and . Note that the axle nut must be screwed onto the thread of the quick-
release axle with at least five full turns.
WARNING! Less tha five full tur s of the thread will ot e sure sufficie t clampi g force
of the rear wheel, which ca lead to accide ts with life-threate i g i juries. The quick-
release axle is the too short a d must be replaced. This is available as a accessory.
Co tact a specialist workshop.
7. Finally, try to move the rear wheel in the dropouts to make sure that it is correctly
fixed.
WARNING! The rear wheel must be correctly faste ed after mou ti g the axle coupli g.
A i correctly faste ed rear wheel ca lead to accide ts with life-threate i g i juries

Mo nting the jogger wheel (jogger config ration)
If the drawbar or the buggy wheels are mounted on the bicycle trailer, first dismantle these
elements. The jogger set consists of two wheel-arms, a jogger wheel and a catch strap. The
two wheel outriggers are mounted in a similar way to the drawbar. The left-hand outrigger is
inserted into the receptacle of the drawbar and the right-hand outrigger is inserted into an
identically constructed receptacle on the right-hand side.
1. Lift the trailer at the front or tilt it backwards.
2. Now insert the jogger wheel into the dropouts of the wheel arms and do not tighten
the axle nut completely.
3. open and remove the blue clips. Then insert the wheel arms into the receptacles.
The blue adjustment wheels must point downwards.
4. Fix the wheel arms with the help of the blue clamps. To do this, insert both steel
bolts of the clamp into the holes on the side of the bicycle trailer and close the
clamp. Then tighten the axle nut, close the quick-release lever. Check that the
wheel and outriggers are fixed by pulling on them.
Note: Opening and closing the clamp is not smooth and requires a certain amount of force.
This is necessary to guarantee a secure hold of the clamp.
WARNING! The jogger wheel a d the wheel outriggers must be correctly fixed after
assembly. Ridi g with a i correctly faste ed jogger set ca lead to accide ts with life-
