adjuster in the counter clockwise direction. Secure the barrel adjuster in the new position
by tightening the lock ring against the caliper or brake lever body. There should be a
3/16”(5mm) clearance between the rim and brake pads as shown in Fig. 14. If gap is
not equal on each brake pad, the brake caliper can easily be repositioned on the frame
by loosening the caliper mounting nut (Fig. 15) with a 10mm wrench, adjust to the gap
shown in Fig. 14 and re-tighten the same nut. If you do not understand these instructions,
or feel the brake is adjusted incorrectly, take the stroller to your dealer for proper
adjustment. If your brake pads (Fig. 10) are worn, see your dealer for replacements.
8. PARKING BRAKE:
The parking brake prevents the stroller from moving while loading and unloading.
The parking brake is not designed as a stopping brake.
WARNING: Do not use the parking brake to slow or stop the stroller because
doing so could cause the stroller to stop abruptly, resulting in loss of control.
WARNING: The parking brake is intended to park the stroller on flat surfaces, not
on inclines. Never leave your child in the stroller unattended with or without the
parking brake set!
To set the parking brake, press the brake bar down into the locked position (Fig. 16)
with your foot on the red foot pedal – making sure the locking pin fully engages the
locking disk. To ensure the brake is set properly, attempt to roll the stroller fore and aft
after setting the brake. If the stroller will not roll, the brake is set properly. To release
the parking brake, lift up on the red foot pedal with your foot until the brake bar springs
up into the fully unlocked position (Fig. 17).
9. AFOD:
With the stroller in the fully open position, attach the AFOD (Anti-Fly-Out-Device) around
the cross tube with the plastic buckle (Fig. 18), so the AFOD is between parking brake
and low boy cargo pouch. It is important that the AFOD is always properly secured when
using the stroller, as it is part of the child’s seat restraint system. It is however, necessary
to release the AFOD in order to fold the stroller.
10. SUN CANOPY:
The stroller features a two position canopy. To fully open the canopy, rotate the assembly
forward until the fabric is taut. The rear canopy flap should be freed from the Velcro to
give additional sun protection. To reduce the size of the sun canopy, pull the canopy
toward the handlebar. The additional fabric can be gathered by pulling the canopy
drawstring (Fig. 1) and securing the cord lock.
11. SEAT SAFETY HARNESS:
WARNING: Set parking brake before placing child in stroller.
To secure your child in the seat, put one shoulder strap over each shoulder and snap
the male buckle into the female receiver on the crotch strap (Fig. 19). Adjust shoulder
straps to be snug and secure (Fig. 20). Connect the sternum strap (red), see Fig. 21.
WARNING: Never place passengers in the stroller without securing them in the
harness. Unrestrained passengers can affect the control of the stroller.
Passenger weight limit - 50 lbs (23 kg) per seat.
Passenger height limit - 44 in (112 cm).
For heavier and or taller passengers (closer to the maximum limits above), auxiliary
harness anchors may be utilized by unfolding anchor Velcro (Fig. 20), sliding ladder
lock buckles above anchors, and reconnecting Velcro to keep ladder lock buckles in
place.
12. RECLINING SEAT:
WARNING: Set parking brake before making any seat adjustments.
To partially recline seat, rotate the ladder lock buckles forward thus releasing the reclining
straps. (Fig 22)
To fully recline seat, unfasten side release buckles at seat back. (Fig. 23)
WARNING: When seat is fully reclined, (Fig. 23) backward tip-over is more likely,
and may result in an accident or injury, as seat and/or passenger may contact
ground before handlebar.
Conditions that make backward tip-over more likely to occur:
. Heavier and or taller passengers (closer to our maximum limits in this manual) make
backward tip-over more likely.
. Adding weight to the seat back pocket (max weight 2 lbs. / 1 kg.).
. Elevating the front wheel. Be careful when going up curbs, steps or other obstacles.
. Pushing down on handlebar.
. Jogging and or running. Always jog or run with the seat in the fully upright position.
. Hanging items from handlebar. Items should not be hung from handlebar when seat
is in fully reclined position.
. Using the stroller on uneven terrain and inclines.
. To help prevent backward tip over, always hold handlebar.
To raise the seat to the fully upright position, fasten side release buckles and pull the
reclining strap loops. (Fig. 22 & 23).
For additional head clearance in fully upright and partially reclined positions:
Fold panel at top of seat down against seat back and attach Velcro.
Next, pull back on strap at top center of seat. Holding tension on strap, fold down and
