Note: Thebicycle trailer has a wheel guard. Always fold the wheel guard outwards when using
it as a bicycle trailer. Thewheel guard protects the rear wheels from collision.
ATTENTION!
THE CORRECT TIRES ARE ESSENTIAL! USE ONLY THE SUPPLIED TIRES AND KEEP THEM
PROPERLY MAINTAINED. INFLATE TIRES TO 30-35 P.S.I. AND CHECK PRESSURE BEFORE
EACH USE. DO NOT USE HIGHER PRESSURE TIRES AS THIS WILL MAKE THE TRAILER JUMPY
AND PRONE TO TIPPING OVERWHEN LIGHTLY LOADED. WE RECOMMEND ONLY TIRES WITH
ROAD TREAD. DO NOT USE OFF-ROAD TIRES.

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 side.
ATTENTION!
Both steel bolts must always be locked
with the clamp when the trailer is used.
Always make sure that the drawbar is
securely mounted. Failure to do so may
