The universal hitch doesn’t fit a bike
with thru axle. Please consult the
retailer for possible solution.
Connect the coupler on the tow bar
and secure the safety pin (Figure 12).
Once the tow bar is attached, wrap
safety belt around the frame of the
bike and hook onto the D-ring on the
tow bar.

WARNING
!
The axle nut must engage the threads for at least
five full turns in order to ensure adequate
clamping force for holding the rear wheel
securely. Failure to tighten the nut fully may
result in accidents with serious injury or death. If
the axle is too short, the Universal Hitch cannot
be used! Consult a professional bicycle mechanic
for the appropriate parts and assistance.
