Installing the Safety Flag

Insert the safety 

fl

 ag pole into the vertical casing of the left 

side panel on the outside of the aluminum side rail. Note 

that the base of the 

fl

 ag pole slips into a pocket inside the 

vertical casing of the side panel.

Knocking Down Your 

Burley-Solo 

Knocking down your Burley-Solo 

is basically the reverse of setting 

it up. Familiarize yourself with 

setting up the trailer as outlined 

in this section above. 

To knock down your trailer:

1.  Remove the safety 

fl

 ag.

2.  Remove the tongue by pulling out the hairpin cotter and lock pin 

and reversing the process described above. The trailer tongue can 

be stored under the child seat. 

3.  Release the snap hooks behind the child seat. Unscrew the roll 

bar knobs and place them in the pocket on the left side panel for 

safekeeping. Stow the roll bar and the cover in the bottom of the 

Burley-Solo along with the child seat.

4.  Release the four side-panel hold-downs. Remove the side-panel 

assemblies and lay them between the wheels on top of the main 

frame. 

5.  We recommend leaving the wheels on when knocking down the 

Burley-Solo; with the wheels on, it is small enough to transport easily 

and reassembly is faster.

VI.  Using the Seat Harness

IMPORTANT: The child seat is intended only for a child old enough to wear 

a helmet and sit upright alone. Your child must have enough neck strength 

to hold his or her head up while trailering.

Crotch strap O-ring must be positioned at child’s sternum to work correctly. 
An O-ring positioned near child’s neck can cause discomfort or serious 
injury. Check child periodically to ensure he/she is seated correctly.
