Repeat for the other side and fully tighten both knobs.
Attaching the Safety Flag
Insert the flag pole into the flag pocket on the left rear corner of the side panel. Always use the safe-
ty flag. It's an essential safety device, which can help make you more visible to motorists and other
cyclists.
Step 4: Hitching the Trailer on the Bicycle
NOTE: The universal hitch is only suitable for bicycle with full axle or/and with quick release axle.
A- Bicycles with Full Axle
Remove the left hand axle nut from the bicycle. Any spacers or washers can generally be retained.
Put the hitch on the axle and re-attach the nut.
WARNING: The axle nut must be tightened on the axle thread by at least 5 full turns, so that ade-
quate clamping force is ensured. A thread which is too short can result in accidental loosening of the
rear wheel and therefore cause serious injury or death. If in doubt, contact your specialist dealer.
B - Bicycles with Quick Release Axle
Remove the quick release from the bike and guide it through the hitch along with the quick release
axle. Push the quick release through the wheel hollow axle again, screw the nut and clamp the quick
release with the correct pressure.
In order to ensure that the hub is clamped sufficiently in the hollow axle, the quick release lever must
begin gripping as it moves from the open to the middle position, and approaching the closed position
you should clearly feel resistance as you tighten. If it is too easy or too difficult to move the quick
release lever, tighten or loosen the quick release nut on the other side of the hub.
WARNING: The thread of the quick release nut must be tightened on the quick release axle by at
least 5 full turns, so that adequate clamping force is ensured. A quick release axle with is too short
can result in accidental loosening of the rear wheel and therefore cause serous injury or death. If in
doubt, contact your specialist dealer.
Insert the safety pin through holes in both hitch and hitch connectors. Rotate and lock up
the pin. Wrap the safety strap around the chain stay and fasten it to the tow bar D-ring
with the snap hook.
WARNING! Hitch and safety strap must be properly installed. Inspect the hitch and tow
bar frequently for any damage or loose fasteners. Damaged or improperly installed can
result in serious injury or death.
