Depress spring pin (Fig 2b),and push tubes together to allow the spring pin to lock in place. (Fig 2c) Note: This
process only needed for initial assembly. When folding for transport or storage, it is not necessary to
disassemble the side frame tubes., IMPORTANT!: The spring-release pins must be engaged for safe operation
of the trailer. Failure to assemble properly may result in frame collapse, resulting in damage to the trailer and
injury to the user.. If the spring-release pins do not engage properly, DO NOT USE. Call the customer service
number as indicated in the attached literature for assembly assistance.
Once the window tubes are assembled, lift the rear frame tube and align with the plastic locking mechanism at the
rear of the window tube. (Fig 3). Slide the end into the block from outside to inside direction until it clicks into
place. (Fig 3) Frame is now assembled (Fig 4). The two upper window tubes are not the same.
NOTE: The two upper window tubes are not the same. They are marked R and L, and must be assembled in
correct order for the frame to lock. Frame must be properly assembled with quick release connector closed and
snapped shut. If QR connector is not fully engaged, frame may collapse, causing damage or injury. Do not use if
QR connector is missing components, or if the closure is damaged or missing.
NOTE: For your safety and the safety of your child, before attaching the trailer to your bicycle, it
is recommended that your bike undergo a safety check by a qualified bicycle mechanic.
