To prepare the trailer for use, ensure the fold-out support leg is retracted if you are attaching it to a tractor. If using the trailer independently, extend the support leg to keep it stable and level.

Operating Instructions

1. Loading the Trailer

The halfpipe trough design allows for easy loading of various materials such as sand, small stones, or other play items. The robust construction ensures the loaded goods remain centered, contributing to the vehicle's stability.

2. Tipping Mechanism

To tip the halfpipe trough and unload its contents, extend the cylinders. The trailer features an extendible cylinder with a 3-step ratchet action, allowing for controlled and gradual tipping. The tailgate can also be opened to facilitate unloading.

3. Using the Support Leg

The trailer is equipped with a fold-out support leg. This leg can be extended to provide stability when the trailer is unhitched from a tractor, preventing it from tipping over when loaded or unloaded.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity of your Bruder Krampe Tandem Halfpipe Tipping Trailer, regular cleaning is recommended. Wipe the toy with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these may damage the plastic. Store the toy in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.

Troubleshooting

• Tipping Mechanism Sticking: If the tipping mechanism or ratchet action feels stiff, ensure no debris is obstructing the moving parts. Gently clean the area and try again.
• Trailer Not Attaching Securely: Verify that the hitch on the trailer and the coupling on the tractor are free from obstructions and correctly aligned.
• General Wear and Tear: While made from high-quality ABS plastic, excessive force or improper use can cause damage. Inspect the toy periodically for any signs of damage and discontinue use if significant breakage occurs.
