Setup and Assembly

The HyperMotion Tobi Rocket requires some assembly. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Verify all components are present against the packing list.
2. Handlebar Installation: Insert the handlebar stem into the front fork tube. Ensure it is fully seated and align the handlebars with the front wheel. Tighten the locking mechanism securely.
3. Seat Installation: Attach the seat to the main frame. Ensure it clicks into place or is secured with the provided fasteners.
4. Pedal Attachment (Tricycle Mode): If using as a tricycle, attach the pedals to the front wheel. They should click securely into place. Ensure they rotate smoothly.

6. Wheel Transformation (Tricycle to 2-Wheel): To convert from tricycle to 2-wheel mode (balance bike or two-wheel bike), locate the wheel transformation mechanism (usually a button or lever) on the rear axle. Press or activate it to bring the two rear wheels together, forming a single wider wheel. Ensure it locks securely.
7. Final Check: Before first use, double-check all connections, ensuring everything is tight and secure.

Operating Instructions

1. Push-Along Tricycle Mode (with Parental Push Bar)

• Ensure the parental push bar is securely attached and adjusted to a comfortable height.
• The child sits on the seat, and the adult guides the tricycle using the push bar.
• Pedals can be attached for the child to rest their feet or practice pedaling, or removed if not desired.

2. Tricycle Mode (Child-Powered)

• Remove the parental push bar if not needed.
• Ensure pedals are securely attached to the front wheel.
• The child uses their feet to pedal and steer the tricycle.

3. Balance Bike Mode

• Remove the pedals by pressing the release button (if applicable) and pulling them out. Store them in the designated holders under the seat.
• Transform the rear wheels into the 2-wheel configuration (if not already done).
• The child uses their feet to push off the ground and glide, learning balance.

4. Two-Wheel Bike Mode

• This mode is typically used after the child has mastered balancing.
• Ensure pedals are removed and the rear wheels are in the 2-wheel configuration.
• The child propels themselves and balances, similar to a traditional bicycle without training wheels.

Folding and Unfolding

• Locate the folding mechanism (often a button or lever) on the main frame.
• Follow the instructions (usually press and fold) to collapse the tricycle into a compact size.
• To unfold, reverse the process, ensuring all locking mechanisms click into place before use.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe down the tricycle with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Dry thoroughly.
• Inspections: Regularly check all nuts, bolts, and moving parts for tightness and wear. Tighten any loose fasteners.
• Storage: Store the tricycle in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prolong its lifespan.
• Tires: The foam tires are puncture-proof and require no inflation. Keep them clean of debris.
