6. SERVICE AND CARE
Inspect the trailer regularly for damage and wear. Keeping the trailer clean and well maintained is crucial
for the safety of the product. Failing to follow the instructions of care and maintenance may cause the
trailer to fail and cause injury to the user and passengers.
FRAME AND METAL PARTS
Check the trailer for damage, dents or cracks. Do not use the trailer if the frame or any of the metal parts
are damaged in any way.
CONNECTED PARTS, DRAWBAR AND PUSHCHAIR WHEEL BAR
Check all connected parts, drawbar and wheel bar regularly to see if any of the parts are damaged, bent,
or broken. The deflectors should be checked regularly to ensure that they are well tightened and in good
condition.
SUSPENSION AND BRAKES
Check the suspension for any signs of fatigue or damage. Inspect the brakes on both sides.
TEXTILES
Check for tears in the fabric and for worn spots that risk becoming holes. If the textile is damaged, there is
risk for the child to come into contact with moving parts.
Clean the textiles of the trailer with a cloth soaked in warm water and a mild soapy solution.
WHEELS
Clean the wheel shafts and hubs regularly with a lint free cloth and a thin lubricant like TF2 or WD-40.
Make sure not to use an acid based degreaser, as this may cause corrosion. Do not apply cleaning products
inside the hub. If roughness is detected in the wheel bearings, consult a professional bicycle mechanic for
lubrication or replacement. Check the tyres for wear or cracks that might result in a flat tyre.
STORAGE
Store the trailer in a dry area out of direct sunlight, preferably lifted off of the ground. Always ensure the
trailer is dry before storing. Wet textiles risk the growth of mould or bacteria.
