Connecting the trailer to a bicycle
Danger!
Do not connect the
Speedkid
to a bicycle until the following conditions have been
fulfilled:
»
The trailer is fully loaded.
»
The children wear a bicycle helmet or use a head rest and are properly belted.
»
The buggy wheel has been removed.
»
The tow bar load has been checked and is within the permissible
range (0 – 8 kg).
»
Remove the retaining cotter pin from the tow bar
coupler pocket.
»
Push the tow bar onto the coupler of the bicycle so
that the cotter pin holes in the coupler and tow bar
couplet pocket are one above the other.
»
Insert the cotter pin into the hole and lock the cotter
pin fastening.
»
Check that the connection between the coupler and
the tow bar is secure.
»
Guide the tow bar’s retaining strap through the
braces of the rear wheel so that the trailer is securely
connected to the bicycle frame.
»
Fix the safety strap using the clamping buckle on the tow bar head. Make sure that it cannot
flutter into the spokes of the rear wheel while riding. If necessary, wrap the safety strap
several times around the bicycle frame and fix the end of the strap with the rubber ring on the
shaft of the tow bar.
Danger!
Always make sure that the safety strap is in place before using the stroller in trailer
mode. In addition, make sure that the safety strap cannot get into moving parts of
the pushchair.
Danger!
Always secure the tow bar to the bicycle frame with the retaining strap. This
ensures that the trailer will remain connected even if the tow bar becomes
detached from the coupler.
Irrespective, the coupler must always be properly mounted and the connection
to the tow bar must be secured with the locked cotter pin. Otherwise the tow
bar can be come detached and can be pushed into the rear wheel’s spokes
during braking.
