Burley Bee Owner’s Instruction and Safety Manual

IMPORTANT: For any spindle service other than lu bri ca tion,

con tact your Burley Dealer.

Fabric Care

Your Burley Bee is manufactured from a tough, durable polyester. The fabric is coated

for wa ter proof ness and is highly resistant to fading. It can be easily cleaned with any

mild soap or deter gent and warm water. For more per sis tent soil, use a nylon bristle

brush. When not in use, store your trailer in a dry, well-ventilated area; wipe it dry

before storing to help avoid mildew.

Polyester fabric will eventually fade, especially when ex posed to direct sunlight. To

extend the life of your fabric, as well as the hitch and other components, do not store

your trailer in direct sunlight. Do not use bleach for cleaning, as it will dam age the

fabric. The fabric is an important part of your trailer’s structure, and provides a safety

envelope for child pas sen gers. Re place any fabric that is ripped, scuffed, or oth er wise

damaged.

Burley offers a durable polyester storage cover to protect your Burley Bee from the

elements when it is not in use. Contact your Burley dealer for details.

Trailer with damaged or ripped fabric components can per-

mit harmful contact between child and spinning spokes or

moving pavement, and cause serious injury. Replace dam-

aged components.

VIII. Safety Guidelines

Bicycling with a trailer is different from bi cy cling without one, in ways which aren’t

always obvious. It is therefore essential that you read and un der stand all of the

fol low ing safety guide lines—in addition to the warn ings and in struc tions in the

previous sec tions—prior to using your trailer. Before loaning your trailer to others,

make sure they too un der stand its proper, safe use. Contact your dealer or Burley if

any of these in struc tions are un clear.
