Assembly Optional assembly steps Installing the buggy wheel You need the buggy wheel for Buggy and Walker mode. The buggy wheel is connected directly with the wheel suspension attached to the frame and is mounted so that it can rotate through 360 °. Lift the cabin at the front.
Assembly Tip! You do not have to remove the tow bar completely. Simply place the tow bar into the tow bar mount from behind to stow it under the cabin floor, see Insert tow bar on page 23. Mounting the coupler onto a bicycle Danger! Make sure that your bicycle is suitable for towing a bicycle trailer, see Performance limits on page 4.
The provided universal coupler is suitable for mounting on the most rear-wheel models. If it does not fit your bicycle, find a suitable adapter and special couplers in our manuals on the following website: www.qeridoo.de/kupplungsleitfaden Caution! Do not use a tool which was previously in contact with conventional steel.

Utilisation Tip! A balanced load distribution is particularly important in Trailer mode. If the two children differ greatly in terms of their weight, you should therefore put the heavier child in the righthand seat. Interacting with the tow bar mounted on the left, this favourably influences handling.
Utilisation Tip! If the child is too small for the 5-point seatbelts, then we recommend to use the accessories, such as a hammock, a baby seat or a seat reducer if it is able to sit upright. Danger! Before every journey, check that the safety harnesses and harness catches are sitting correctly.
Utilisation Checking the weight distribution and tow bar load An optimum weight distribution is important for safe handling: The load’s centre of gravity should always lie in the centre of the wheel axle. The tow bar load with which the tow bar lies on the coupler must be neither too great nor too low in Trailer mode: Tow bar load too great (> 8 kg): Too much load on the coupler.
Utilisation Connecting the trailer to a bicycle Danger! Do not connect the Sportrex to a bicycle until the following conditions have been fulfilled: The trailer is fully loaded. » The children wear a bicycle helmet or use a head rest and are properly belted. »...

Utilisation Storage For storage, simply fold the Sportrex together and store it in a protected and dry place without direct sunlight. Please also consider the information in the chapter Care on page 32. Danger! Hands or fingers can become trapped on moving parts while setting up and folding up the cab.
Care and maintenance Caution! Please note that textiles or fabric parts must always be completely dry in order to avoid the formation of mould and mildew stains. Always use the right raincover when driving in the rain or on snow. To avoid bleaching of the fabric, we do not recommend exposing the trailer to direct sunlight.
The storage location should be dry, well ventilated and protected against direct sunlight. » At higher storage temperatures, you should store the wheels separately from the cabin » because the tyres’ rubber can cause odours. Use a Qeridoo folding garage if the Sportrex must be kept outdoors. » Caution! Please note that when using the optional folding garage, the trailer must be completely dry.
Care and maintenance Semi-annually (or every 500 km) Clean the inside and outside of the cabin thoroughly. » Check the spoke tension, which must be between 90 and 100 kg. » Clean the quick-release axle of the tires with silicon spray. » Every three years (or every 3.000 km) Have a full inspection carried out by a specialist workshop no later than every three years.
