Safety Recommendation: All aluminium hitch arms have been tested for safety by the manufacturers. These tests include functional tests as well as load and fatigue tests. We only use hitch arms which have withstood these tests without any problem. Because it is difficult to determine the exact life time of a bicycle trailer and to know the actual loads to which the hitch arms will be subjected during this time, there does remain a risk in theory – and this cannot be excluded with absolute certainty – that even a hitch arm which has undergone testing could fail, if it is put under extreme load for several years. To rule out this theoretical risk, we have limited the period of use for all hitch arms to a maximum of 3 years. Please replace your hitch arm after 3 years at the most and draw attention to this safety recommendation should you sell the trailer.

Spoked wheels on the Corsaire XL, Captain XL, Cougar and CX Position the spoke reflector between two outer spokes and an inner spoke in such a way that the inner spoke lies in the guide slot of the reflector. Guide the plastic holder with its slot over the inner spoke into the hole of the reflector and secure by tightening it a quarter turn using a screwdriver. Fit two reflectors on each wheel (as shown to the right and left of the valve). Plastic wheel on the Cabriolet, Comfort and Cheetah. Screw two reflectors onto each wheel at the corresponding brackets. For fixing the reflectors to the passen- ger compartment you need a Philips screwdriver. Fit the red reflectors in the rear grommets. Fit the white reflectors in the front grommets. Assemble the flag, push it on the left hand side through the loop of the weather cover and insert it in the corresponding flap (in countries where the traffic drives on the left the safety flag must be inserted in the flap on the right hand side). For the Cheetah, Cougar and CX the safety flag is inserted in a hole in the plastic cap of the rear frame tube (not illustrated). 2.2 Fixing the Hitch Arm on the Base (all types of hitch arms) Insert the securing pin into the rear hole of the hitch arm attachment bracket and push against the pressure of the spring- loaded ball as far as it will go. To insert the hitch arm depress the smaller knob and push the hitch arm in, until the big button engages (Nos. 1 to 4). Safety note! The securing pin must be attached as well as the ‘click system’ of the bicycle hitch arm! A hitch arm that has not been secured properly can come loose during travel. This is extremely dangerous and can result in serious or fatal injury. 2.3. Fixing the Hitch Arm on the Bicycle 2.3.1 Fixing the hitch arm with Chariot Universal hitch on the bicycle Note: The Chariot Universal hitch is only suitable for bicycles with a round or oval chain stay with a tube diameter between 14 mm and 26 mm. Guide the quick release (Q.R.) lever over the chain stay and press it into the groo- ve of the hitch. Close the lever down- wards. The securing pin of the Q.R. lever (see illustration below) must noticeably engage. Keep repeating this step, until you can clearly feel resistance when tightening the Q.R. lever and the hitch cannot be moved anymore or be twisted out of position. Please note: Guide the open hitch under the left hand side chain stay. (If a kick stand is attached to the rear of the bicycle, this stand needs to be removed.) Both rub- ber inserts of the hitch must be tight against the chain stay. If the hitch can still be moved, then open Never turn the Q.R. lever when in the the Q.R. lever groove, only when open! (depressing the securing pin) and rotate the lever clockwise. Safety Recommendation: Always attach the safety strap to the chain stay! Put the safety strap around the bicycle chain stay and attach the safety clip to the D-ring of the hitch arm Detaching the coupling see next page Detaching the coupling Depress the securing pin of the Q.R. lever, open the lever, push the axle upwards and remove the coupling downwards.
