Trike assembly

Small components should be kept out of reach of children. Before starting assembly of the trike, remove all plastic and securing elements.

1. Take the frame with seat base (1) and insert the rear wheels (2) as shown in figure A until you hear a distinctive "click".
   
2. Remove the bolt from the mudguard. Affix the mudguard (4) to the front fork (3) using the bolt you removed earlier (figure B).
   
   Make sure that the notch in the mudguard is in the place shown in the picture. Tighten the screw using the assembly key (18).
   
3. Screw in the bolts and nuts affixed to the fork (3). Slide the elements on the front wheel (5) together as shown in figure C. Connect the elements of the front wheel with the fork as shown in figure C.1, tighten the bolts you inserted earlier using the assembly key (18).
   
   
4. Slide the handlebar bolt cover (8) onto the handlebar (6) as shown in figure D.
   
5. Unscrew the affixing bolt from the top part of the fork (3). Pass the fork through the frame (1).
   
   The notch in the mudguard must be facing towards the direction of travel. Next, place the handlebar onto the fork mounted on the frame, as shown in figure E. Affix the handlebar with the bolt using the assembly key (18) as shown in figure E.1, and slide the cover (8) onto the tightened bolt (figure E.2).
   
   
   
6. Installation of the cable (9) (figure F).
   
   Make sure that the end of the cable with the nut is placed in the back part of the trike, as shown in figure F.2. Insert the end without the nut into the opening shown in figure F.1. Loosen the nut from the rear end of the cable and insert it into the opening located in the rear part of the trike as shown in figure F.2. Next, tighten the nut using the assembly key (19).
   
7. Unscrew the nut from the bolt located under the seat (10). Slide the bolt through the seat base, which is located on the frame, and tighten it with the bolt as shown in figure G. While tightening the nut on the bolt, press the seat firmly into the base.
   
   Make sure the nut is tight and the seat does not turn.
   
8. Insert the side guards (11) into the openings as shown in figure H, and lock them as shown in figure H.1.
   
9. Pass either of the side guards through the crotch strap as shown in figure I. Connect the guards together as shown in figure I.1.
   
10. Before installing the sun shade (12), make sure that the hooks on the backrest are positioned as shown in figure J. Insert the sun shade into the holes at the back of the seat as shown in figure J.1. Position the hooks as indicated in figure J.2 to lock the sun shade on the backrest.
    
    
    
11. To install the rear basket (13), loosen the securing bolt in the rear part of the frame (1). Place the basket on the frame and secure it with the bolt as shown in figure K.
    
12. To install the parent handle, connect the top part of the handle (15) to the lower part of the handle (14) as shown in figure L until you hear a distinctive "click". Next, open the plastic cap at the back of the frame as shown in figure L.1. Insert the connected elements into the opening as shown in figure L.1, press the pin at the bottom of the handle and insert it deeper until you hear a "click" so that the pin is hidden.
    
    
13. Slide the cup holder (17) onto the element on the back of the parent handle as shown in figure M, affix the bag (16) using hook and loop closure on the parent handle (figure N).
    
14. To affix the bell (7), remove the bolt using the assembly key (18), then slide the bell onto the handlebar (6) and install the bolt.

Adjusting the trike

Position of sun shade – the length of the sun shade is adjustable. The sun shade features additional sun protection, which can be pulled out from underneath.
Footrest – depending on the child's development level, the footrests can be folded so that the child can ride the trike by themselves. To open or close the footrest, pull the grey element on the footrest down, and then position the footrest in the desired position.

Whenever the parent handle is affixed and the footrest is open, the wheel lock must be disengaged so that the pedals rotate freely without moving the wheel (the drive is disengaged). If the lock is engaged, the child's feet may be crushed or injured! After removing the parent handle, fold the footrest and connect the wheel lock so that the pedals set the wheel in motion (the drive is engaged).
Brake – the trike has a rear wheel brake. Press the brake with your foot. When you hear the locking sound, the brake is activated. It unlocks after the brake lock is lifted.

To fully unlock the rear wheels, raise the brake as high as possible.
Safety harness – adjust the length so that it holds the child securely, but doesn't block the child's movements.
Changing the seat position – the seat can be affixed facing towards (figure O) or away from (figure P) the direction of travel. To do this, unscrew the nut underneath the seat and position the seat facing away from or towards the direction of travel.



After positioning the seat in the desired position, make sure the nut is tight and the seat does not turn. Adjustment of the length of the parent handle – extend and secure it using the pin, and set it in a comfortable position..
