IMPORTANT NOTES
• Read all instructions carefully before use.
• Keep the manual handy at all times.
• Some assembly required. Use correct tools for your safety.
• Do NOT use trainer for any other purpose than instructed.
• The trainer is manufactured to precise standards. Disassembling or rebuilding by yourself will void the warranty.
WARNINGS
Use two-wheeled normal bikes only. Tandems cannot be used.
We strongly recommend you to replace your quick release skewer with the one supplied
in the kit. Also install the coupling protector cap onto the right side coupling of the trainer.
Otherwise the stability will not be guaranteed.
You can remove the coupling protector cap when your bike doesn't have quick release
system but hub nuts, and when you use your own quick release skewer at your own risk.
Remove all oils and moisture from the drive roller and the tire before use.
Make sure the center frame is securely locked to the U-frame before installing your bike.
Check the couplings supporting the rear hub for damage and cracks. Accidents may occur
from cracked or damaged couplings.
You should not use the left side knob bolt for tightening the wheel axle. This is for pre-
adjusting the wheel position to the exactly center of the drive roller only.
Holding the wheel securely must be done by the right side hub handle.
When using the trainer, place it on a at and level surface oor for safe training.
Do not over-tighten the hub handles. Overtightening may cause damage to the trainer or
your bicycle frame. The clamp handles should be a snug and secure t. Do NOT force!
Before use, make sure all bolts and nuts are securely fastened.
Keep away from small children, and keep hands and feet away from spinning rollers and
wheels at all times.
Open the legs fully, make sure the front fork support touches the center frame edge and
adjust the center frame to t your bike wheel base correctly to get maximum stability.
