Mounting the tow bar
You only require the tow bar in Trailer mode. It is used to hook up the Kidgoo behind a bicycle
equipped with a suitable coupler, see Connecting the trailer to a bicycle on page 24.
The tow bar is attached to the tow bar mount using a locking bolt and can be used in two different
positions:
»
Attachment position: The tow bar is facing forwards.
»
Standby position: The tow bar is facing to the rear and
is carried under the cabin floor. In both positions, the
tow bar is also secured with a cotter pin.
»
Pull the locking button with one hand and hold it in
place.
»
Press the front button on the tow bar with the other
hand to unlock the locking bolt.
»
Keep on pushing down the button and push the tow
bar forwards until the mark in the tow bar mount is
reached.
»
Release the button on the tow bar so that the locking
bolt secures the tow bar in the tow bar mount.
»
Release the locking bolt so that it jumps back into the
closed position and additionally secures the tow bar.
Danger!
Make sure that your bicycle is suitable for towing a bicycle trailer, see
„Performance
limits“ on page 4
. Since it may in some cases be necessary to change the rear
wheel axle, it is best to consult your specialist dealer or the bicycle manufacturer in
order to do this.
Tip!
You do not have to remove the tow bar completely. Simply place the tow bar into
the tow barmount from behind to stow it under the cabin floor, see
„Insert tow bar“
on page 21
.
Mounting the coupler onto a bicycle
Caution!
Secure the bicycle to prevent it from toppling over, and make sure that the rear
wheel cannot drop out of the axle mount after the screw connection has been
undone. Use for example an assembly stand, or turn the bicycle upside down so
that you can place it on its saddle and handlebars.
