5.1 Using the Push Handle

The push handle allows an adult to control the tricycle's direction and speed, providing assistance to younger children or during longer walks.

• Hold the push handle firmly with both hands.
• Gently guide the tricycle in the desired direction.
• Do not lift the tricycle by the push handle with a child seated.
• Ensure the child's feet are safely on the pedals or footrests (if available) to prevent injury.

5.2 Independent Riding

As the child grows and develops coordination, they can learn to pedal and steer the tricycle independently.

• Ensure the child can comfortably reach the pedals and the ground with their feet.
• Supervise the child closely during independent riding, especially in new environments.
• The push handle can be removed when the child is ready for full independence, if the design allows.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the tricycle with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Rinse thoroughly and dry.
• Inspection: Regularly check all screws, bolts, and connections for tightness. Inspect wheels, pedals, and the push handle for wear or damage.
• Storage: Store the tricycle in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent material degradation.
• Lubrication: Periodically check if any moving parts (e.g., wheel axles, pedal mechanisms) require light lubrication. Use a child-safe lubricant if necessary.
