AFFIXING THE TRAINING WHEELS ONTO THE BIKE
Caution:
Do not remove the nut that keeps the rear wheel in the frame.
The rear wheel axle is tightened and secured by jam nuts. Affixing/removing the training wheels does
not affect their setting.
Affixing the training wheels (Fig. 1):
1. Unscrew the nuts (4) from the rear wheel axle.
2. Assemble the mug guard (3, optional). Do not disassemble the stabilizers (1).
3. Assembly the following components from first to last: wheel arms (2) mud guard (3).
4. Set the training wheels so that there would be a 25 mm gap between the wheels and the
ground (Fig. 2). Tightening force = 17 N m.

CAUTION:
A children’s bike with training wheels can only be used on flat surfaces and under
adult supervision. For a bike with training wheels, columns and doorways present a problem,
because the wheels can get stuck. If the child rides with training wheels on an uneven terrain
or gets caught on an obstacle, the bike can turn over and the child may get injured.

the ground.
Important:
Make sure that the bolts are sufficiently tightened before every ride.
If you do not want to use the training wheels, thread a washer through the rear wheel axle and affix a
cap nut (nut with closed end) to cover the dangerous edges of the uncovered bolt.
REPAIRS AND MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Check the bike often and regularly. Damage or incorrect setting/adjustments can lead to
injuries. Make sure the bike is assembled and adjusted according to this manual.
If a component is damaged, misplaced or worn, do not use the bike until the component is
replaced.
Check that all connections are tightened according to this manual. A loose part can affect the control
you have over the bike and can get easily lost. You can damage the components by tightening them too
much. While replacing any components, make sure they are compatible.
If the bike frame is made of aluminium, it is necessary to inspect it regularly. There can appear small
cracks on the frame as a result of overloading, strong shocks, etc. If the cracks appear on your bike,
stop using the bike and request a frame appraisal from the customer service.
NOTE:
If you are not sure how to adjust or repair the bike correctly or you do not have sufficient tools,
contact an authorized service.
