Folding and Unfolding the Eclipse
.
To fold the Eclipse, rotate the right crank to the 9 o’clock position (Fig. 3A-12a), open the ski quick release, depress the release
button and pull the telescoping tube (Fig. 3A-12b) out to the position where the button snaps into the hole (Fig. 3A-12c), then
close the ski quick release. Loosen the head tube quick release joint lever, rotate the stem forward, move the T-pin to the left,
then fold down the head tube (Fig. 3A-13a). Use the StreetStrider Velcro wrapping strap to tightly secure the front frame
elements and strider poles together (Fig. 3A-13b). The Eclipse is ready for transportation or for storage.

To unfold the Eclipse, remove the wrapping strap, lift up the head tube, position the quick release lever to clamp down, open the
strider ski quick release lever, depress the release button, slide the telescoping tube back into the strider ski and tighten the
quick release lever. You’re ready to stride (Fig. 3A-13c)!
