4. Setup and Assembly

5. Operating Instructions
Once assembled, the Rolly Toys pedal tractor is ready for use. Always ensure the child is supervised during play.
- Pedaling: The tractor is powered by pedals. Instruct the child to place their feet on the pedals and push them alternately in a circular motion to move the tractor forward.
- Steering: The steering wheel controls the front wheels. Teach the child to turn the steering wheel left or right to change direction. The stable turntable steering provides smooth maneuverability.
- Using the Trailer: The trailer can be used to transport light items. Ensure the load does not exceed the trailer's capacity or the tractor's stability. To detach the trailer, simply lift the hitch from the coupling point.
- Opening Hood: The tractor features an opening hood. This allows for imaginative play and can be opened by lifting the front section. Ensure it is closed securely before riding.
