Brake Adjustment; Maintenance - Joovy Bicycoo BMX 0014X Owner's Manual

5 Adjusting Balance Bike Seat
• Check for the correct seat height by having your child sit on the seat.
• Make sure your child's feet touch the ground and your child is able to walk. There is a safety mark on the seat's tube. See Figure 5.1.
• Make sure the seat clamp doesn't go below the safety mark. If necessary, adjust the seat height in several steps in order to make sure that
your child is comfortable on the balance bike. The correct seat height is essential for proper function.
• Check and adjust the seat height periodically.
• Identify the black clamp under the seat and loosen the large hexagonal screw with the 5mm Allen wrench. See Figure 5.2.
• Raise/lower on the seat to the desired height. See Figure 5.3.
• Firmly tighten the large hexagonal screw.
• Push and pull on the seat to make sure it is secure.

6 Brake Adjustment

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is very important for the correct operation of the hand brake that it be adjusted properly. Through normal use, the cable
may loosen and require re-adjustment. There are two adjustments for the rear brake, one on the brake handle and one on the rear wheel.
• To adjust the brake handle, use a Phillips head screwdriver to turn the screw clockwise to shorten the handles travel. Turn the screw counter
clockwise to lengthen the handles travel. See Figure 6.1.
NOTE: Over tightening can cause the brake to engage prematurely.
• The brake adjustment on the rear wheel tightens the cable when you loosen the barrel adjuster. This will engage the brake quicker. Loosen the
lock nut and turn the barrel adjuster counterclockwise.
• Re-tighten the lock nut. See Figure 6.2.

Maintenance

All of the screws, clamps, and other hardware and plastic parts on the balance bike should be inspected periodically to ensure that they are
secured properly and not damaged or malfunctioning. All moving parts, such as wheels and hinges should also be checked periodically to ensure
they are operating properly.
Tires should be inflated to recommended pressure. See tire side wall for correct pressure. DO NOT overinflate the tires.
Any missing, broken, or worn components should be replaced immediately, and the balance bike should not be used until they are replaced. Only
original manufacturer's components should be used. If needed, please contact Joovy at our toll-free phone number (877) 456-5049.
Color fading may occur if the balance bike is left in direct sunlight for long periods of time. When not in use, store the balance bike out of direct
sunlight.
Cleaning
The plastic and metal material on the balance bike can be cleaned using mild household soap or detergent and warm water on a sponge or clean
cloth. Always allow to completely air dry before using the balance bike.
The frame and wheels should always be kept clean and free of dirt and foreign matter, especially after operating the balance bike in rain, snow,
or other harsh environments. Use a sponge or cloth dampened with warm water and a mild household soap to clean the wheels after such use.
