Tow bar
Insert the two red set screws (wing nuts) into the threaded holes in the main frame
just far enough to hold them in place. Slide the tow bar downwards, between the
outer horizontal ring and the two notched front struts.
There are two grooves in the tow bar. Select the grooves that allow your trailer to
sit closest to level. Adjust the tow bar while you ghten the red set screws by hand
so that the screw ps t into the indentaons in the front of the tow bar.
When ghtened securely, the tow bar is pressed rmly against the struts to prevent
it from loosening.
Jogger Stroller
If you are installing the Jogger wheel, instead of the tow bar, follow Jogger Stroller
Instrucons which are a included separately, then return to Wheels.

NOTE: If you have a braking system, skip this secon, go to the separately en-
closed Braking System Instrucons, and then return to Wheel Reectors.
Unwrap the quick release skewer, unscrew the nut and remove one spring. Then slide the skewer through the axle
of the hub (center of the wheel). Replace the spring with the smaller end towards the inside, and loosely aach the nut.
Set the wheel into the dropouts of the frame with the quick release skewer to the outside of the trailer. Tighten the nut unl the

Skewer

skewer can be closed ghtly (press lever in, not around in a circle). Make sure wheels are very secure.
Wheel Reectors
Install the wheel reectors (if not already installed) into the wheels near the valve but with enough space to add air easily to the
res.
Seat Post Hitch
Aach the hitch to the seat post with the bevel facing upward at a height which
allows the trailer to be as parallel to the ground as possible. Open, then re-ghten
the hitch’s collar evenly on both sides of the seat post by screwing each bolt in part
way, and rotang between bolts as you ghten. Tighten the hitch to the seat post
so that it cannot move.
The ball joint is at the p of the tow bar. Feed the ball joint, top to boom, through
the hitch. The ball joint should rotate freely in the hitch.
Aaching Trailer to Seat Post Hitch
Spin the hitch nut onto the ball joint’s threads, with the teeth pressing against the hitch. Hand ghten rmly.
Rear Reectors
Install the rear reector on the mount at the rear center of the trailer. The oponal Blinky light can be mounted here instead.
Safety Strap
Wrap the safety strap around the seat post and aach, keeping it loose enough to avoid binding while cornering.
Safety Flag
Join the two pieces of the agpole to make a 6’ long pole. Insert the safety ag into the tube at the le rear of the trailer. The
movement of the ag draws drivers aenon and makes the trailer more visible.
Loading Your Trailer
Distribute the load evenly across the struts. We recommend strapping a board or hard plasc sheet to the oor of the trailer, or
using large plasc totes.
