HITCHING THE TRAILER ON THE BICYCLE
NOTE: The universal hitch is only suitable for bicycle with full axle or/and with quick release
axle.
1. 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!
Danger of serious injury or death
•
The axle nut must be tightened on the axle thread by at least 5 full
turns, so that adequate 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.
•
Wrap the safety strap around the chain stay and fasten it to the tow bar
D-ring with the snap hook.
WARNING!
Danger of serious injury or death
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.
