Your Runabout stroller utilizes our 

unique and revolutionary new TRI-
MODE™ front swivel system: 
 
1.

 

To install the front fork, rotate the 
TRI-MODE selection dial to the 
centre (45

0

) position. 

2.

 

Tilt the stroller frame upward on 
the rear wheels. 

3.

 

Insert the fork shaft into the TRI-
MODE housing till it “clicks” into 
place. 

 
IMPORTANT: Always test that the fork 
is securely engaged in the housing.   

To remove the front fork: 

 
1.

 

Rotate the TRI-MODE 
selection dial to the centre 
(45

0

) position. 

2.

 

Tilt the stroller frame upward 
on the rear wheels. 

3.

 

Press the centre release 
button. The fork will then be 
released. 

 
 

 

 

The unique TRI-MODE™ swivel system is as 
flexible as it is functional over a variety of 
terrains and uses. 
 

1.

 

LOCK: This position is best for use on 
extremely rough or soft terrain such 
as sand etc which inhibit wheel swivel. 
To lock your wheel, rotate the dial to 
the “LOCK” position. Swivel the wheel 
around till it locks into position. 

2.

 

O

The central position locks the wheel 

into a tight 45

swivel arc. This 

provides more stability for use with a 
toddlerseat or when going down 
inclines. 

3.

 

SWIVEL: This position allows full, 

unfettered swivel action.
