BEFORE RIDING:
Your new Co-Pilot was assembled and tuned in the factory and then partially disassembled for shipping. The following instructions will
enable you to prepare your Co-Pilot for years of enjoyable cycling. For more details on inspection, lubrication, maintenance and adjustment
of any area please refer to the relevant sections in this manual. If you have questions about your ability to properly assemble this model,
please consult a professional bicycle mechanic before riding.
Just a minute spent before each ride can significantly improve your safety and the enjoyment of your ride. So, each time before you
ride make a habit of performing the following safety checks on the Co-Pilot and the bicycle to which it is attached.
• Try to lift, push down on and twist the seat to confirm that it is tight.
• Look at the connection of the pedals to the crank arm. You should see no pedal screw threads and the pedal should feel firm and
be parallel to the ground.
• Apply your bike brake(s) and make sure that they feel firm to the touch, and then spin the wheel(s). Apply the brake(s). They should
stop the wheel(s).
• Check to be sure that fenders and accessories are firmly attached and will not contact any moving parts. Make sure all reflectors are
in position and not broken or missing. Replace any broken or missing reflectors before riding.
After you and your rider have put on your bicycle safety helmets, go enjoy your ride. Your safety and that of your passenger
is well worth
just a minute.
Also, be sure to read and follow the warnings and instructions on the bicycle and in the Assembly,
Maintenance and other sections of this manual.
