Place the Pathfinder behind the adult bike with the seat post clamp against the adult
bike seat post. The seat post should rest in the valley of the seat post clamp.
9B.
Place the seat post clamp plate over the seat post and tighten all four bolts by hand.
9C.
Position the Pathfinder behind the adult bike so the coupler assembly, trailer arm, and
bike are in a straight line. Tighten each bolt one turn with the allen wrench.
9D.
Tighten all four bolts in a crisscross pattern (1,2,3,4 then repeat) until they are tightened
equally, and the gap between the clamp plate and coupler is even on both sides.
