is in the unlocked position (Fig. 10). Or, it can be used as a fixed wheel stroller (Jogging Mode) when the swivel lockout knob is in the locked position (Fig. 11). To change from the swiveling wheel mode to the fixed wheel mode, lift and slide the lockout knob (Fig. 10) up and all the way to the right. Then release the knob, and it will snap down. Next, rotate the fork until the pin engages and locks the fork in position. You are now ready to use the stroller in the fixed wheel mode. To change the stroller back to the swivel mode, lift the lockout knob and rotate it to the left. This will free the fork, and the stroller is now ready to use in the swivel mode.

WARNINGS 
Never leave children unattended in the stroller.
Failure to properly assemble or install the quick release wheels on this stroller may result in the wheels becoming detached while moving and a subsequent loss of control of the stroller.
Always use seat harnesses to avoid serious injury to children from sliding or falling out of stroller.
Never allow occupants to stand in stroller.
The parking brake is not designed as a stopping brake. The brake should not be used to slow or stop the stroller. The brake is intended to park the stroller on flat surfaces, not on inclines. Never leave your children in the stroller unattended with or without the parking brake set!
Do not strap parcels or bags to the handle as it affects the balance and stability of the stroller and can cause it to tip over backwards.
The maximum carrying capacity of the stroller is 70 pounds.
Do not place sharp objects in the seatback pocket as your child leans against this and can be injured as a result.
When starting out, always make sure that your kid’s hands and feet are away from wheel spokes.
The stroller is not equipped for use after dark. If you intend to use it at night, we recommend installing reflectors and a lighting system available through your local bike shop.
We do not recommend wearing roller skates or
Always use wrist safety strap.
Never run with the stroller in Swivel Mode (see section 6)
Do not use stroller on stairs or steep inclines. Stroller can tip over, resulting in injury.
Never pull a loaded stroller backwards up stairs. Doing so could damage the suspension system – leading to frame failure and serious injury to the user and/or the occupants.
BOB IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR INJURY, DAMAGE, OR FAILURE THAT RESULTS FROM OWNER’S FAULTY ASSEMBLY OR MAINTENANCE AFTER SHIPPING.
AGE RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is recommended that your child be a minimum of 6 to 8 weeks old before riding in the stroller. Young babies incapable of holding their head up must be provided additional head and neck support to ride safely. For jogging and off road use, children should be at least 6 to 8 months old.
Children develop at different rates. Consult with your pediatrician regarding the suitability of the stroller use with your child.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS:
Reference Fig. 1 as it describes the various parts of the stroller.
11 UNPACK: Remove stroller and stroller wheels from packaging. Plastic packaging material was used to
protect the front fork dropouts, the front wheel axle quick release, handlebar release levers and the metal shock brackets. Remove these plastic pieces.
22 SWINGARM: Rotate the swingarm away from the front of the stroller until the shocks engage in the first position (Fig. 2). The shocks’ locking pins will “snap” and lock into position 1.
33 HANDLEBAR: Rotate the stroller handlebar up to the fully open position. Slider Latches will lock into place (Fig. 3).
44 REAR WHEEL: Place the rear wheel quick release lever in the open position, as shown
in Fig. 4. Insert the rear wheel’s stub
axle into the hole in
the rear dropout. If
the axle does not slide in easily, loosen the quick
release adjusting nut (Fig. 4) by hand.
fully into the rear dropout until the
axle shoulder or snap ring on the axle comes in contact with the dropout (Fig. 5). Move the quick release lever to the closed position (Fig.
6). The word
CLOSE should be clearly visible and the quick release lever should be pointing up towards the seat. When properly adjusted, it will require considerable pressure
BOB.
55 FRONT WHEEL: (Fig. 7) shows the
anatomy of the front wheel and quick release.
The front fork’s dropouts are slotted to receive the front wheel (Fig. 8). Slide the wheel into the dropouts so that the quick release lever is on the left hand side of the stroller when the fork is rotated forward and locked in the fixed jogging position (see section 6). Make sure the wheel is centered in the
fork and that the axle is touching the top of the drop out
slot. Securely tighten the wheel in
place as follows: With the quick release lever in the open position (Fig. 8), tighten the adjusting nut (clockwise) until
it comes in contact with the stroller dropout. Move the quick release lever to the closed position (Fig. 9). This should require significant pressure. If you do not feel significant resistance, turn the
quick release lever back to the open position (Fig. 8), and hand tighten the adjusting nut by one
or two more turns in the clockwise direction. Move the quick release lever toward the
closed position (Fig. 9). The word CLOSE should be clearly visible and the quick release lever should be parallel to the stroller fork leg. It should require considerable pressure
when properly adjusted. NOTE: Follow all instructions exactly.
If you are unsure how to operate the quick release,
consult your dealer or call BOB.
66 SWIVEL LOCKOUT: Your new Revolution Stroller can be used in one of two modes. The stroller can be used as a swiveling wheel stroller (swivel mode) when the lockout knob
7TRACKING ADJUSTMENT: It should be noted that all fixed
three wheeled vehicles can be easily influenced to deviate from
a straight path. In some cases strollers can have or develop a
tendency to pull to the right/left due
to many different factors including tire pressure, wheel installation, road conditions and manufacturing tolerances. If you find your BOB stroller to significantly track or pull to the left or right while in the jogging configuration during use on flat terrain, follow the sequence of instructions below.

Tracking Adjustment Instructions:
Note: Tracking adjustment can only be performed with the stroller fork locked out (jogging configuration). Roll test the stroller as described below. It is recommended you have someone assist with this task in order to catch and return the stroller. Fig. 12 illustrates the roll test process.
a. Empty the stroller. Do not roll test with a child or any occupant in the stroller.
b. Find a location on level ground approximately 16 ft. long. It is helpful to use an existing
c. Align the stroller so the rear wheel axles are perpendicular to the straight line. Push and release the stroller, trying carefully not to influence its direction to the left or right, so it rolls straight down the test path. This step should be performed more than once to make sure the stroller was not biased
left or right by the pushing action.
