ATTACHING THE WHEELS AND SADDLE
• Attach the mudguard to the front wheel fork with the screw and nut (fi g. 1).
• The rear wheel comes pre-mounted. Only the front wheel has to be mounted. Insert the
front wheel into the front wheel fork (8) by removing the axle locks (13) and external nuts
(12) from the wheel axle. Check whether the tapers (screw fi ttings on the wheel bearings)
(14) are tightly screwed on to the axles and secure them with the nuts (12). Now secure the
wheel with the aidof the hooks to the axle locks (13) in order to hook these into the
holes on the fork. Tighten the axle screws (12). Please ensure that the wheels are
straight when inserted into the fork/frame.
• Attach the saddle as shown in fi g. 1. The cover (3) should initially be pulled over the
saddle’s supporting tube (17). However, this is not necessary with the lowest saddle
setting. Please ensure that the maximum saddle height is not exceeded by refraining
from pulling the saddle support higher than the “MAX” indication as exceeding the
maximum saddle height could lead to serious injuries.
• The wheels come pumped up. The maximum air pressure should not exceed 2 bar.
When pumping up the wheels, please ensure that the tube is sitting evenly in the joint
and is not contorted. The cover should also fi t evenly over the joint and not pinch the
tube
anywhere.
ATTACHING THE HANDLEBARS
• Mount the steering bar parallel to the front wheel. Pay attention to the route of
brake cable are same as shown on the drawing. The cover (3), the metal bracket (4),
the basket (H) and the two plastic wearing parts (5) as shown in the drawing must
fi rstly be drawn over the front fork and vertical support of steering bar. The vertical
support should inserted into the top end of front fork (with split), and the metal clamp
(4) should be postioned completely on the front fork, not on the vertical support
directly. The vertical support can be adjusted up to the mark of MAX to get highest
postion of steering bar. It must not protrude further, as this can lead to accidents. Then
tighten the metal clamp (4) with washer and nut securely.
• Please ensure that the steering rod is positioned correctly in relation to the front wheel
before tightening the screw. The clamp must be tightened to the fork tube. Not to the
handlebar
tube!
• The brake system comes pre-mounted. However, you should make sure that the brakes
are working perfectly. Test the brakes several times before using the bicycle. Apart
from that, please note the information on how to set up the brakes.
• Attach the protective padding with the aid of the Velcro band stitched on it to the centre
of the steering rod.
After you have assembled all components, make sure that all connections are tightly
screwed together before allowing your children to play with the running bike.
HOW TO SET UP THE BRAKES ON THE RATZFRATZ RUNNING BIKE
Your running bike has a rim brake on the back wheel which is operated via the brake lever
on the handlebars (fi g. 1). If the braking effect decreases, the brakes should be readju-
sted. Please consider that this work is normally carried out by trained and experienced
mechanics. Therefore, technical understanding and the correct use of tools are very hel-
pful. As this is fi ne-tuning work, some patience and practice is required. Only brakes that
have been set up perfectly can produce their full effect.
Before undertaking the tuning work, the following should be checked:
• the wheels are in a straight position (15)
• the Bowden cable (black cable cover) (16) should not be fl exed, damaged or rusty. If
any of this occurs, we recommend replacing the brake cable or Bowden cable.
Wear and tear on the brake shoes (E) should be looked out for. If the brake shoes (E) have
already been worn out to such an extent that they can hardly be seen anymore, it’s worth
replacing them.
Before tuning the brakes, please check with your child whether the brake lever (A) can
be operated easily by your child. By turning the screw (B), you can reduce the distance
between the brake lever and the handlebars and thereby adapt to the size of your child’s
hand. The initial tuning work can be carried out on the brake lever (A). If this is not enough,
the Bowden cable should be retightened. Loosen the lock nut (A1) there, unscrew the
adjusting screw (A2) on the brake lever and refi x the lock nut.
Please loosen the cap nut (C) on the brake arm (D) which holds the cable tight to adjust the
brakes. If you now press both brake arms with your hand towards the rim, the distance
between the brake shoes and the rim should be min. 1 mm and max. 3 mm. Attach the
Bowden cable by tightening the cap nut.
Check that the brake shoes (E) are positioned correctly. Their entire surface area should
be pressed to the rim when full brake pressure is applied. If the brake shoes do not lie on
the rim edge, they should be readjusted by loosening the Allen screws (F). Please ensure
that you tighten these again correctly following the adjustment. If one brake arm now pulls
more or less, correct this using the spring adjusting screws (G) directly on the brake arms.
If a brake arm is pressing less to the rim, the spring adjusting screw (G) has to be screwed
in a little. If a brake arm is pressing too much on the rim, the spring adjusting screw has
to be unscrewed a little.
Before the bicycle is used for the fi rst time, activate the brake lever several times and
check whether all of the screws have been tightened and the brakes are working per-
fectly.
