1.3 Parking Brake Instructions
1.4 Suspension Adjustments (Cougar 1 and 2 models only)
NOTE:
To determine the weight, you must
combine the weight of the passengers and
cargo. To adjust simply loosen knob, slide bracket
to desired weight range, and tighten knob.
NOTE:
The bracket should be moved to the
location next to the weights noted (not on
top of the position).
If the suspension is making a hard "knock-
ing" sound, it means the weight setting is
too low and you need to slide the bracket
further towards the rear. Typically, the sus-
pension on both sides should be set to the
same position/range, however it is possible
to have them set to different positions if a
lighter child is on one side and a heavier
child on the other.
1.2 Handlebar Instructions
Depress both spring buttons and insert the
handlebars fully into the sleeves.
Both spring
buttons must “pop” out of the holes located
on the inner side of the sleeves to secure
the handlebar in place.
Insert both ends of the handlebar into the
aluminum sleeves located at the upper rear
section of the carrier.
WARNING: Failure to properly install the
handlebars or use the wrist safety strap
could cause the carrier to become separated
from you resulting in serious injury
.
The parking brake is located at the center of
the rear axle under the rear storage bag.
Note the 4 positions outlined in
table
where 1 represents the lightest load and 4 represents
the heaviest load
.
All Cougar models come with adjustable suspension. Four adjustment ranges are suggested,
but it can be used in any position. The weight ranges suggested are based on the carrier being used
for cycling. The setting could be softer or stiffer for strolling/jogging. Experimenting may be required.
Disengage the parking brake by lifting the
plunger upwards.
Engage the parking brake by pressing the
plunger down on the brake housing.
