WARNING: When seat is fully reclined, (Fig. 20) backward tip-over is more likely, and may result in an accident or injury, as seat and/or passenger may contact ground before handlebar.

Conditions that make backward tip-over more likely to occur:

.Heavier and or taller passengers (closer to our maximum limits in this manual) make

.backward tip-over more likely.Adding weight to the seat back pocket (max weight 2 lbs. / 1 kg.).

.Elevating the front wheel. Be careful when going up curbs, steps or other obstacles.

.Pushing down on handlebar.

.Jogging and or running. Always jog or run with the seat in the fully upright position.

.Hanging items from handlebar. Items should not be hung from handlebar when seat is in fully reclined position.

.Using the stroller on uneven terrain and inclines

.To help prevent backward tip over, always hold handlebar.

To raise the seat to the fully upright position, fasten side release buckles and pull the reclining strap loops. (Fig. 19 & 20).

For additional head clearance in fully upright and partially reclined positions: Fold panel at top of seat down against seat back and attach Velcro.

Next, pull back on strap at top center of seat. Holding tension on strap, fold down and connect Velcro on seat back. This strap tension will keep the top of seat (padded panel) perpendicular to the seat back. (Fig. 19)

WARNING: Always jog with the stroller seat in the fully upright position. Jogging with the seat in reclined positions may result in a loss of stability and injury.

12. SHOCK ABSORBERS:

The suspension system features two shock positions to provide a comfortable ride for kids of different weights. The two positions are shown in Fig. 2. Position 1 is intended for occupant up to 40 lbs. (18 kg; total weight of occupant and cargo), while position 2 is intended for occupant from 40 to 70 lbs. (18 to 32 kg) total. The stroller features a metal shock bracket with a sliding track and spring loaded shock pin that automatically locks in place when it aligns with either of the two shock positions. Shock position adjustments should be made with the stroller unloaded. The shocks will lock into position 1 when unfolding the stroller. To use the stiffer shock position, move the shock from position 1 to position 2 by depressing the shock release button (Fig. 2) with one hand. With the other hand, lift slightly and pull the shock backward. When the shock pin is properly aligned in position 2, the pin will “snap” into place. Repeat this process for the second shock. To move the shock from position 2 to position 1, reverse the above process for both shocks.

13. WRIST SAFETY STRAP:

The wrist safety strap is designed to help prevent the stroller from rolling away should you lose your grip on the stroller. When using the stroller make sure the strap is securely looped over your wrist.

WARNING: Always use Wrist Safety Strap. Failure to use the Wrist Safetly Strap can result in loss of control, injury and death.

14. FOLDING:

Remove child from stroller. Remove the contents of the Low Boy cargo pouch, seat back and seat pockets. The shock absorbers must be in position 1 (Fig. 2) before folding. Press both the right and left handlebar release levers (Fig. 3), and fold the handlebar forward as shown in Fig. 21. Locate the frame release handle (red foam) underneath the seat (Fig. 22) and pull upwards sharply. This will allow the lower frame to fold together, as shown in Fig. 23. The folded stroller can be made even more compact by removing the front and rear wheels. The front wheel is removed by opening the front wheel quick release and removing the wheel (see section 5). The rear wheels are removed by releasing the parking brake (see section 8), and then opening the rear wheel quick release (Fig. 4), and pulling each wheel directly to the side.

The Wrist Safety Strap can be used to keep the stroller in the folded position for transport and storage. With the stroller folded, loop the end of the wrist safety strap around the handlebar and back to the cross tube and fix the Velcro surfaces together (Fig. 24).

15. TIRE PRESSURE:

WARNING: Check tire pressure before every use.

Keep all tires inflated to 30 p.s.i.

16. STROLLER CARE & MAINTENANCE:

The fabric is 100% polyester with a stain resistant treatment that makes cleanup easy. Use a sponge with a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water (maximum temperature of 100 deg. F / 38 deg. C). Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove soap then air dry. Do not use detergent.

Regular maintenance should include: Verifying tire pressure, verifying that all screws and fasteners are tight, checking that all wheels are securely clamped, checking for any tears or excessive wear in the fabric seating which could lead to an accident, and wiping parts clean with a rag. To reduce the possibility of squeaks, periodically apply a small
