Chariot Carriers Cavalier - Manual (Page 7)

Check attachment of all wheels.
This jogging stroller is equipped with quick release wheel
retention mechanisms. The quick release allows the wheel to be
installed and removed without tools. For proper and safe perform-
ance, read and follow these instructions carefully:
1. Check all wheels of your jogging stroller before each use.
Front wheel.
2. For the front wheel, move the quick release lever to the OPEN position
and set the wheel so it firmly touches the inside of the fork ends.
3. With the lever about halfway between the OPEN position and the CLOSED
position (Fig. 5), tighten the quick release adjusting nut on the opposite end of the
quick release axle until finger-tight (Fig. 6).
4. Place the quick release lever in the palm of your hand and move the lever in a motion
as shown in Figure 7. Move the lever into the CLOSED position (Fig. 9). At the halfway
closed position of the quick release lever, you should start to feel some resistance to this
motion.
5. If the lever is moved to the CLOSED position with little or no resistance,
clamping strength is insufficient. Simply return the lever to the OPEN position,
tighten the quick release adjusting nut further and close the lever, testing again for
resistance. When the quick release device is properly tightened, and clamped to the
closed position, the clamping force is adequate to cause metal into metal engagement
(embossing) of the fork surfaces.
• Do not tighten the quick release by using the quick release lever
like a wing nut (Fig. 8). This will not result in sufficient force to
hold the wheel in place.
6. Orient the quick release lever so that it does not interfere with any other jogging
stroller part and so that it will not become accidentally snagged by obstacles in the
path of the jogging stroller (Fig. 9).
