Kettler 08152-799 manual Assembly of the toy vehicle

Assembly Instructions

■In case of tricycles without a free-wheel consider the fact that the pedals will rotate even when the tricycle is pushed.

■Do not transport any objects on the tricycle.

■Always adjust the use of the tricycle to the conditions encountered.

■Tricycles do not possess a continuously effective brake system. Therefore, safeguard the tricycle against rolling away when parking it. Never park the tricycle unattended with a child on it!

■Never draw the tricycle behind you as long as a child is seated on it.

■Instruct your child how to use the vehicle correctly and draw attention to possible sources of danger.

■Although dangerous situations are unlikely to occur if the toy is used correctly, children at play should, if possible, be supervised.

■Please keep original packaging of this article, so that it may be used for transport at a later date, if necessary.

■Please bear in mind that there is always a danger of children injuring themselves while using swings, climbing frames,toy vehicles or similar equipment.

■When children are at play, situations may arise which cannot be predicted by the manu- facturer and for which we cannot be held responsible.

■Before use, always check all screws and plug-in connections as well as respective safety devices fit correctly.

■Never use corrosive or abrasive substances to clean the toy. Never use substances which may cause pollution of the environment.

■Lubricate the bearing sleeves of the wheels and the handlebars with a few drops of oil every two or three months.

■For models with push bars: Always ensure that the push bar fits correctly in the adaptor, and locks. Do not hang any weights on the bar! The vehicle may tip over, and your child may be hurt. The push bar is intended for adult use only, do not pass responsibility for chil- dren on to other children. For free play time take the push bar off for safety reasons.

Assembly of the toy vehicle

■The toy vehicle must be assembled carefully by an adult person. Study the assembly instruc- tions carefully before beginning work. Assemble the vehicle in the exact sequence shown by the letters in the diagrams. This is essential for the safe function and use of the scooter

■Please note that there is always a danger of injury when working with tools or doing man- ual work. Therefore please be careful when assembling this machine.

■Ensure that your working area is free of possible sources of danger, for example don’t leave any tools lying around. Always dispose packaging material in such a way that it may not cause any danger. There is always a risk of suffocation if children play with plastic bags!

■Bolt all the parts together loosely at first, and check that they have been assembled correctly. Tighten the locknuts by hand until resistance is felt, then use spanner to finally tighten nuts completely against resistance (locking device). Then check that all screw con- nections have been tightened firmly. Attention: once locknuts have been unscrewed they no longer function correctly (the locking device is destroyed), and must be replaced.

■The grips can be pushed onto the handlebars more easily if they are first soaked in warm water.

■Please keep original packaging of this article, so that it may be used for transport at a later date, if necessary.

■For technical reasons, we reserve the right to carry out preliminary assembly work (e.g. addition of tubing plugs).
