WARNING: Ensure that folding brackets are correctly locked before using carrier. Failure to do so could cause the carrier to collapse.

To collapse the carrier, pull the release disks and push on the curved back frame bar until the carrier is completely collapsed.

WARNINGS:

-Only an experienced, strong cyclist should pull a trailer.

-Do not travel faster than 25 km/h and take corners slowly (less than 10 km/h).

-The extra weight will make your bike less responsive. You will need to ride slower. Because of the added weight, it will take longer to get up to speed and you will need more distance to stop. While riding down hill with a trailer you will gain speed more quickly. You will need to use your brakes early and often to keep your speed under control. Remember to apply the rear brake before the front brake, and to use both brakes. It will take longer to cross streets and paths because of the extra length. Turn corners gradually and slowly. A trailer can tip over if a corner is taken too fast and too sharp. Use extra care in all situations.

-Do not ride over curbs, pot holes or other road hazards.

-Stop and walk bicycle when approaching dangerous road conditions (gravel, sand, wet areas, pot holes, railroad tracks, etc.). Using the trailer off-road can damage the trailer and injure you or your passengers.

-Take a practice ride before you take your child along. Ride your bike with the trailer (weighted to simulate an occupied trailer) in an open area without traffic until you are skilled in handling your bike with a trailer attached.
