TROUBLE SHOOTING

STROLLER PULLS TO ONE SIDE:

TYPE 1: FIXED FRONT WHEEL

The xed front wheel jogging stroller is unusual

in that it has no swiveling front wheel. Therefore,

the stroller may at times feel like it is pulling to

one side. This problem can have two different

causes, either individually or in combination.

Please perform the following steps in their

numbered order.

1. The stroller is sensitive to the air pressure in

the tires. If the rear tires do not have equal

pressure, the stroller will feel like it is pulling

to the side with the tire with the lower tire

pressure. Check that the rear tires have the

same pressure. Add air pressure to a maximum

of 25 pounds using a BICYCLE STYLE

HAND AIR PUMP.

2. The alignment of the front wheel of the stroller

can also cause the stroller to pull to one side.

The stroller is designed so that the front wheel

can be adjusted to correct for any alignment

problem. Page 3 of the instructions shows an

expanded view of the front fork assembly. To

align the front wheel, rst loosen the wheel

via the quick release handle as in step 2 of the

instructions. Grab the front wheel directly in

front of the stroller and push the wheel in the

opposite direction of the pulling problem. You

will notice that the axle will move within the

slot on the fork. Move the wheel to the side

a small amount. Retighten the quick release

handle. Give the empty stroller a push across

an empty smooth surface (let go of the handle)

and note if the stroller now runs straight.

Re-adjust the axle a small amount at a time

until the stroller runs straight. Please note

that a very minute movement of the axle will

affect the tracking of the stroller. Once you

have aligned the front wheel, you can mark

the holding plate position with a marking pen

if you detach the front wheel on a regular

basis. Please note that the hole in the fork is

designed to allow the stroller to be adjusted

to pull to the right, go straight, or pull to the

left. If you continue to have difculty with

tracking, please call our customer service

department at 1-800-328-7363 for assistance.

CALIPER BRAKE DOES NOT SLOW THE

STROLLER DOWN:

The jogging stroller is equipped with a bicycle

style caliper brake to assist you in slowing

the stroller. It is designed with a quick release

lever for ease in detaching the front wheel of

the stroller. If you are experiencing inadequate

slowing when applying the hand brake, please

review the drawing below in the instruction

manual to ensure that the quick release lever

is in the down position (i.e. facing the front of

the stroller). If the quick release lever is in the

closed position and you are still experiencing a

braking problem, the brake cable tension needs

to be adjusted. This is accomplished in two

different ways. If the brake is slowing the stroller

slightly, the cable tension can be ne tuned via

the tension nut located on the end of the brake

cable just above the caliper. Turn the tension nut

counter clockwise to increase tension. If at the

maximum adjustment of the tension nut you still

do not have adequate braking, you will need to

adjust the length of the brake cable. To adjust the

length of the cable, rst return the tension nut to

its factory setting by turning it clockwise until

it stops. Loosen the cable clamp nut that holds

the brake cable to the brake caliper. Squeeze

the caliper together so that the brake pads are

just touching the rim of the front wheel. Pull

the cable through the cable clamp nut until the

slack is removed. Retighten the cable clamp

nut. Retest the braking and ne tune the tension

via the tension nut until adequate slowing is

achieved. Please keep in mind that the brakes are

designed to be adjustable in order to compensate

for the wearing of the brake pads over time. If

you experience difculty, please call our customer

service department at 1-800-328-7363 for

assistance. Also, most bicycle shops can quickly

perform this adjustment for you.

Reverse steps if brakes are too tight.

TYPE 2: SWIVEL FRONT WHEEL

WHEEL ADJUSTMENT:

It should be noted that all three wheel vehicles

can be easily inuenced to deviate from a straight

line. In most cases strollers can have a tendency to

pull to the right/left due to many factors. Including

uneven tire pressure, improper wheel installation,

road conditions and manufacturing tolerances. If

you nd your Baby Trend stroller to signicantly

track or pull to the left or right while use on at

terrain, follow the sequence of the instructions on

page 3 / page 5 to realign your front wheel.

FLAT TIRE:

The jogging stroller features bicycle tires to allow

for extended wear and ease of pushing. Just like a

bicycle tire, the jogging stroller can suffer from at

tires. If you have a at tire, you can use a standard

bicycle tire repair kit to repair the tire or you can

take the tire to a bicycle shop for repair. If you

experience numerous at tires, you may want to

purchase thorn proof inner tubes for the jogging

stroller. These can be purchased at bicycle stores

or at many national retail stores. The correct size to

purchase is shown on the sidewall of the tire.
