Brakes

Your stroller comes with two parking brakes: a foot brake and a hand brake. The hand brake, located on the handle, locks the front wheel. The foot brake is located near the basket, on the rear axle. It locks the rear wheels.

IMPORTANT:

You should always use both brakes when the stroller is not

being pushed.

To lock the hand brake, pull the lever in and hold it while you push the button down. As you hold the button, release the brake lever.

To release the hand brake, pull the lever in until the button pops up.

To lock the foot brake, simply push it down with your foot. Try to push the stroller to make sure the brake is secure.

Pull the foot brake up with your foot to release it.

Foot brake

WARNING:

NEVER trust your brakes 100%. Always keep an eye on your

stroller. Always use your safety wrist strap any time a child is in the stroller.

WARNING

Never leave your child unattended.

Canopy

Your canopy has multiple adjustments. It also has a side ventilation system, with flaps that roll up and velcro into place. Use the canopy at its fully extended position during midday sun to provide your child with the most amount of shade. When the canopy is not needed, pull it all the way back. To shade your child during early morning or late evening sun, unsnap the strap at the back of the canopy and pull it forward for best positioning. To view your child through the top window, simply roll back the sun cover and velcro into place. To clean the canopy window use a damp cloth. To remove the sun canopy completely, you will need a Phillips screwdriver to remove the screws from both sides of the canopy. Unsnap the canopy from the back and lift it out. Before washing the canopy, remove the frame. The canopy may be washed in cold water with mild detergent. Place the canopy back on the jogger to dry. When the canopy is wet, extend it fully until completely dry to prevent any mildew from forming.

Seat

The amount of recline on the seat is adjusted by holding the buckle behind the seat and pulling the strap to make the seat more upright.

To make the seat recline more, hold the strap and pull the buckle.

Buckles here adjust amount of seat recline.

The seat is fully reclined by unbuckling the strap behind the seat.

The seat is removed by undoing the velcro and the straps from the foot plate and the frame. The seat also needs to be unsnapped from the frame.

To wash the seat, take out the firmness panels by unzipping the pouch at the top and underneath the seat.

The seat may be washed in cold water with mild detergent. Snap the seat back on the frame to dry to prevent mildewing.

WARNING

Do not use your jogger with the back firmness panels removed. Removing the panels could cause suffocation.

Seat Harness

1. Undo both buckles from the padded center strap.
2. Place the child in the seat.
3. Adjust the padded center strap forward or backward to fit your child.
4. Adjust the padded shoulder seat harness up or down on the velcro strips to fit your child.
5. Connect the two buckles to the padded center strap.
6. Pull the adjustment strap until the padded center strap and the padded shoulder seat harness are both snug.

WARNING

Always use seat harness to avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out.

Storage

Your jogger has many places to store your belongings. There is a pocket located on the back of the seat, as well as pockets for keys or a cell phone on both sides.

There is a basket under the seat and there is a key leash and two water bottle holders located on the back of the jogger.

WARNING

Do not store more than 12 pounds between the pockets and basket. Overloading the jogger may cause it to become unstable and tip over.

Height Adjustable Handle

Your jogger is equipped with a height adjustable handle.

To adjust the handle, push the buttons on the inside of both handles.

While holding the buttons, rotate the handle to the desired height.

Folding

Pull the latches on both sides of the frame and push down on the handle until the forks and handle meet.

If you would like the jogger to fold more compactly, simply take the wheels off.

Tracking

If your jogger is pulling to the left or right, check to see if it is one of the following things:

Check to make sure the tire pressure in all the wheels is equal.

Correct tire pressure is printed on the side of the tires.

If that does not work and it continues to pull to the right, unscrew the front wheel thumb nut and shift the wheel to the left. Tighten the wheel again and push the jogger to see if it rolls straight. If it pulls to the left, shift the wheel to the right.

IMPORTANT:

These adjustments should be done in small increments.

Only a small amount of adjustment is necessary.

Maintenance

We recommend that you have an experienced dealer perform these maintenance checks once a year. Lubrication of the following items is necessary:

1. Pivot point and cable of hand brake
2. Hand brake cable by caliper lever
3. Front wheel axle
4. Quick release lever
5. Insert in frame for rear wheels
6. Wheel nub and ball bearings of rear wheel
7. Locking bars of folding mechanism
8. All pivot locations of shocks on both sides

Replace the brake pads when the grooves become worn away. Check to ensure all bolts are tight and springs are secure for rear foot brake.

Check fabric seams and straps for fraying or tearing. Keep it out of the sun and in a dry place when not in use to prevent fading and mildew. Check the frame for loose rivets, cracks and wear. Check to make sure that all nuts and bolts are tight on the frame.

To adjust the hand brake if it becomes loose, turn the barrel towards you, away from the locking ring. Tighten the locking ring to make a gap no more than a 1/4" wide. If it is still too loose, adjust the barrel down by the brake calipers.

IMPORTANT:

These adjustments should be done in small increments.

Only a small amount of adjustment is necessary.

Frequently Asked Questions

When can I start using my jogger?

You should wait until your child is about 6-8 weeks old before using your jogger. Limit your use to flat, smooth terrain. Use neck support until your child has adequate neck strength. As every child develops differently, you may want to consult your pediatrician.

How much weight will my jogger hold?

The jogger is designed to carry one child up to 80 pounds. You may also put up to 12 pounds in the lower storage area.

How safe is my jogger?

Very safe. It is equipped with safety features to protect your child including a wrist strap, 5-point harness, and locking hand and foot brakes.

Is it safe to hang anything on my jogger?

Absolutely not. Never hang bags or other items from any part of your jogger. The jogger could tip, which could cause injury to your child.

What if I am 6'4" and my wife is 5'2"?

The jogger's handle can be set at any height between 35 1/2" and 43".

Can I use a car seat with my jogger?

Items such as car seats or child carriers from other manufacturers may cause your jogger to become unstable. We do not recommend this; it is not safe.

Can I roller blade with my jogger?

We do not recommend this; it is too easy to lose control and possibly harm your child.

Reminders:

Always use your safety wrist strap any time a child is in the jogger.

Never leave your child unattended.

Never overload the jogger. Overloading it may cause the jogger to become unstable and tip over.

Do not allow your child to stand in the jogger. This may cause the jogger to tip and cause injury to your child.
