Trailer Attachment
Use of the trailer without the safety strap attached to the bicycle
may result in serious injury or death. Always attach the safety
strap to the bicycle when using the trailer.
Important! This section provides instructions for attaching the
trailer coupler to the bicycle’s REAR WHEEL with a hub nut or quick
release lever. The coupler attaches to most bicycles.
❶ To ensure secure attachment of the coupler to the bicycle, be
sure the thread of the rear axle extends at least 2 mm’s from
the hub nut before proceeding to the next step. Figure 4.1
❷ Using a wrench, remove the hub nut and washer from the
bicycle’s back wheel. Figure 4.2
❸ Place the tab washer on the axle. Fit the tab into the slot on
the bicycle frame dropout. Note: If your bicycle frame doesn’t
have a slot in the drop out, rotate the tab to fit into the axle
slot. Figure 4.3
