 GENERAL WARNING: 

Cycling can be a hazardous activity 

even under the best of circumstances. Proper maintenance of your 

child’s new tricycle is your responsibility as it helps reduce the risk 

of injury. This manual contains many “WARNINGS” concerning the 

consequences of failure to maintain or inspect your child’s new 

tricycle. Many of the warnings could say, “your child may lose control 

and fall.” Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, 

we do not repeat the warning of possible injury or death whenever the 

risk of falling leads to a “WARNING”. 

 NOTE:

 The illustrations in this manual are used simply to provide 

examples; the components of your child’s new tricycle might differ. In 

addition, some of the parts shown might be optional and not part of 

your child’s new tricycle’s standard equipment. The following manual 

is only a guide to assist you. 

 WARNING:
