Burley Owner’s Manual Tool Required: Phillips screwdriver
The trailer front has the black plastic tongue receptor on the
left side of the frame. The rear has the Burley logo printed on
the fabric end.
NOTE:
Mounting the Reflectors
Clear front reflectors are mounted horizontally in the two reflector brackets
on the front of the trailer frame. The TOP is marked on the reflector front.
Snap the posts on the reflector into the holes in the reflector bracket, with
the open post to the top. Insert the screw through the hole and into the open
post hole, and tighten snugly. Repeat for the other side. Mount the two red
reflectors horizontally in the two brackets on the rear of the trailer frame, in
the same way.
Attaching the Wheels
First, verify that the tires are inflated to 30-35 P.S.I. Tip
the trailer frame onto its rear. Place the wheel between the
wheel dropouts. Unscrew nuts from the quick release levers.
With the quick-release lever in the “OPEN” position, insert
the lever through the wheel, making sure that the horizontal
shaft goes all the way through the axle and dropouts. Once
the wheel is fully seated, tighten the thumb nut. You should
feel resistance halfway through tightening the lever. Position
the quick-release lever so that it is aimed to the rear of the
trailer in the “CLOSED” position (the lever is marked for
OPEN or CLOSED positions). Repeat for the other wheel.
Make sure the wheels are held securely, with the quick release lever
fully inserted into the hollow axle. You should not be able to rock
or shift the wheels. Improperly installed wheels can fall off, causing
an accident or serious injury.
WARNING
Installing the Frame
Note: The trailer rear has the Burley logo printed on the fabric end.
Rear: Slip tubing ends of rear frame hoop (the U-shaped frame piece) onto
the tubing guides on the trailer rear end. Depress the buttons and slide the
tubing completely on.
Front: Slip tubing ends of front frame hoop/top bar assembly onto the tubing
guides on the trailer front. Depress the buttons and slide the tubing com-
pletely on. Unscrew the knob end and set it aside. Line up top bar end with
the hole in the rear hoop center, and screw the knob in. With a Phillips screw-
driver, tighten the screw on the underside of the rear end of the top bar.
Snapping Fabric Sides and Ends Around Frame
Flip the fabric sides of the trailer up, with the ends of the metal side rods
inside the frame hoops. Wrap the webbing ends around the frame hoops from
the inside to the outside, and connect the snap caps to the snap studs on
the frame hoops. Then flip the front and rear ends up and wrap their web-
bing ends around the frame hoops from the outside to the inside, above the
snapped webbing for the sides. Connect the snap caps on this webbing to the
snap posts on the front and rear fabric ends.
Installing the Cover
Unzip the back of the cover. Unscrew the knob from the center of the rear
hoop. Place the cover over the frame, and line up the grommet on the cover
with the knob hole on the rear hoop. Replace the knob and screw it in.
Use the pull tabs below the side snaps caps to pull the cover into position.
Starting at the front of one side, snap the snap caps on the cover to the cor-
responding snap posts on the fabric sides. Repeat for the other side. On the
trailer rear, zip the zipper closed.
