Safety precautions
Please read these instructions with attention before using the product, and then keep them in a safe place.
Failure to follow the instructions can affect both your own safety and that of other road users.
1. The trailer is intended for transporting items. The trailer must not be used to transport passengers.
2. The permitted laden weight of the trailer may not exceed 36.2 kg.
3. Do not carry out technical modifications of any kind on the trailer.
4. Do not attempt to carry additional loads on the tow bar.
5. Maximum road speed: 10 mph
(16 km/h)
6. Do not use the trailer on stony or uneven road surfaces, or in road conditions otherwise considered dangerous.
7. Proceed with great care when on public roads in order to avoid hazards.
8. The person riding the towing bicycle must be at least
16 years of age
and in a fit state to be in charge of a vehicle.
9. Always wear a helmet when cycling.
10. Ensure that the towing bicycle is in a perfect state of repair.
11. You are recommended to fit the towing bicycle with rear-view mirrors.
12. Check all components for tightness before each trip, paying particular attention to the quick-action coupling and wheels.
13. Always switch on the lamps in conditions of poor light (at twilight, etc.)
14. Please note that we cannot accept liability for accessories obtained from other suppliers.
15. Only bicycles must be used as towing vehicles. The cycle used must be specifically identified in its manufacturer’s instructions as being
suitable for towing purposes.

17. Never load the cargo trailer higher than the top edge of the plastic tray (risk to traffic behind from the loss of items). When loading the trailer,
make sure that the load is evenly distributed.
18. Load the trailer to its maximum capacity and practice towing it on an enclosed piece of land before venturing out onto public roads. Take
special care to practice riding around bends and up and down slopes, and try out your emergency-braking and setting-off techniques on
different road surfaces. Take into account the extended braking distance of the vehicle and trailer resulting from the additional trailer load.
19. Attach the pennant supplied to make the cycle and trailer more visible.
20. Note that there is an increased risk of tipping over when stationary when the trailer is attached. Ensure at all times that the towing bicycle
is in a fit state to tow the loaded trailer.
21. Push the load well inside the trailer or otherwise secure it to prevent loss.
