Operating Instructions

Adjusting the Parent Push Handle

• Locate the adjustment mechanism on the parent handle pole.
• Press the release button or lever and slide the handle to one of the three desired height settings.
• Ensure the handle locks securely into position before pushing.

Using the Brakes

• To engage the brake, press down on the brake lever located near the rear wheels with your foot.
• To release, lift the brake lever.
• Always engage the brake when parking the tricycle or when the child is getting on or off.

Front Wheel Clutch Operation

• The front wheel clutch allows you to disengage the pedals from the wheel.
• When the clutch is engaged (locked), the child's pedaling will propel the tricycle.
• When the clutch is disengaged (unlocked), the pedals will spin freely without affecting the wheel, allowing the parent to push the tricycle without the child's feet interfering.
• Refer to the specific mechanism on your tricycle for engaging/disengaging the clutch.

Reversing and Adjusting the Seat

• To reverse the seat, locate the release mechanism (often a button or lever) beneath the seat.
• Follow the instructions to rotate the seat 180 degrees.
• To adjust the seat backrest angle, use the recline mechanism, typically found on the side or back of the seat.
• Ensure the seat is securely locked in the desired position before use.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe down the tricycle with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. The seat fabric is non-detachable and non-washable.
• Lubrication: Lubricate moving parts, such as wheel axles and pedal mechanisms, regularly to ensure smooth operation.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Inspect the frame, wheels, and other components for any signs of wear or damage. Replace damaged parts immediately.
• Storage: Store the tricycle in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent material degradation. The tricycle can be partially disassembled for more compact storage.
