Scott TIME TRIAL MACHINE Owner's Manual page 19

Only trailers with two side-by-side wheels are permitted (d). Single-track trailers
are not permitted for use with SCOTT bikes.
The trailer must be fixed to the left dropout only (e). Other mounting connec-
tions (seat post, luggage carrier, etc.) are not permitted.
Have your child/pet/cargo trailer mounted exclusively by your SCOTT dealer.
WARNING
Ask your SCOTT dealer for appropriate child/pet/cargo trailers.
Observe the maximum permissible gross weight of the child/pet/cargo trail-
er. You find this information on the trailer and/or in the accompanying user
manuals of the respective manufacturer. If you are in doubt, contact your
SCOTT dealer.
Observe the maximum permissible overall weight of your SCOTT bike.
Use a child/pet/cargo trailer only, if permitted by the national and regional
regulations in the country where you are travelling.
Observe the national and regional regulations on the use of child/pet/cargo
trailers.
Always observe the maximum permissible overall weight of your bicycle
when adding a trailer and observe the chapter "Notes on the maximum per-
missible overall weight".
The following points have to be observed when using a child/pet/cargo
trailer:
• Never set off before having safely stowed the objects in the trailer, i.e. actively
secured with tightening straps (f). Cargo shifting may otherwise negatively
affect the centre of gravity and thus the riding behaviour.
• Stow heavy objects as far down as possible and towards the centre of the
trailer. When distributing the loads make sure the trailer is loaded as evenly as
possible.
• Uncontrolled movements of the child or pet can cause your SCOTT bike and/
or the trailer to tilt. Therefore, always buckle up your children and pets in the
trailer.
• Do not overload your child/pet/cargo trailer. Overloading can result in break-
age of the frame, the fork or the components. Risk of accident and injury!
