ON A SOLID AXLE

A. VerifythattheezHitch™iscompatiblewithyourbicycle.

B. Removethenutandwasher(s)fromtheleftendofthe

axle,theendoppositeofthesprockets.

D. Reinstallthenutandwasher(s)ontotheaxle.

E. Tightenthenuttothebicyclemanufacturer's

recommendedtorque.

WARNING

The nut on the rear axle must be tightened

by at least 5 full turns to ensure adequate

clamping force. You may discard the

original washer on some axles to make

room for the ezHitch

. Check with your

bicycle retailer to be certain.

Depending on the hub type, the existing

torque support washer for the hub must

stay on the frame. Please follow the

assembly instructions for the hub and the

manufacturer’s torque specifications when

fastening the axle nut.

NOTICE

For internal hubs, please reference

instruction manuals supplied with the

Thule Internal Hub Hitch Adapter kit for

installation details.

WARNING

The safety pin must always be in use.

A hitch arm that has not been secured

properly may come loose during travel.

Make sure that the hitch arm is correctly

attached and secured to the Thule child

carrier. Any kind of incorrect assembly may

lead to the Thule child carrier becoming

separated from the bicycle.

51100986 - B

WARNING

Always attach the hitch’s back-up safety

strap in the manner described above. It

serves as additional protection against

losing the carrier during operation. Do

not use the Bicycle Trailer if you cannot

attach the hitch’s back-up safety strap

around your bicycle frame for any reason.

Failure to install the hitch’s back up safety

strap may lead to the Thule child carrier

becoming separated from the bicycle.

WARNING

The hitch arm load shall be no less

than 0.1kg/0.22lb and no greater than

8kg/17.6lb. This is checked by measuring

the downward load exerted by the end of

the hitch arm while the Thule child carrier

is loaded with passengers and cargo.
