This manual contains many WARNINGS and CAUTIONS. Read and understand all of the WARNINGS and CAUTIONS. Failure to assemble
and use this carrier correctly may lead to serious personal injury or death to you or your passengers.
Do not install a car seat or any other seating device not approved by the manufacturer inside the carrier.
Make no modifications to the carrier.
The carrier may become unstable if a parcel bag or rack not approved by the manufacturer is attached to the carrier.
Do not allow any of the child’s body, clothing, shoe laces, or toys to come in contact with moving parts.
Never leave children unattended in the carrier.
Failure to comply with the manufacturer’s instructions may lead to serious injury or death to you and to your passengers.
Maximum capacity of the carrier is 75 lb (34 kg) for one child carriers and 100 lb (45 kg) for two child carriers. This includes
the weight of the child/children and cargo. Do not use with children who exceed the weight limitations.
Do not use cleaning solvents on the carrier. Clean only with mild soap and water.
When used with only one passenger, the passenger should be seated in a center seating position.
Passengers must always use seat belts.
Maximum tire pressure is 30 – 35 psi.
Care must be taken when folding and unfolding to prevent finger entrapment.
Never use your carrier to go up or down stairs or on steep hills.
When carrier is used in Jogging or Strolling mode, please observe the following:
Use wrist safety strap at all times.
Always use parking brake when the carrier is stationary.
Never in-line skate with your carrier.
Maximum weight in the rear combined pockets is 2.2 lb (1 kg). The carrier may become unstable if the pocket is overloaded.
When carrier is used in Cycling mode, please observe the following:
A reflector that complies with CPSC regulations shall be visible on the rear of the trailer and on the side of the wheels.
Before each ride, ensure the attached carrier does not interfere with braking, pedaling, or steering of the bicycle.
Never ride a bicycle at night without adequate lighting. Obey all local legal requirements for lighting.
Ride with extreme caution, never exceed 25 km/h, and slow down to less than 10 km/h around corners and on rough roads.
Use of a trailer changes the stability, braking requirements and riding characteristics of your bike.
Always use flag for increased visibility.
Before the carrier can be used with the Cycling CTS Kit, children must be at least 1 year old and able to sit upright unassisted.
Passengers must always wear a CPSC or CE approved bicycle helmet.

AND ST
ORAGE
ORAGE
A. Hitch Maintenance - Check that the hitch and back up straps are properly secured before every ride. Periodically check the hitch for
damage, cracks, etc. Replace at first sign of damage. Any damage/deterioration on any parts of your Chariot carrier should be
repaired/replaced immediately to reduce the risk of personal injury.
B. Fabric/Shell Care - Your Chariot Carrier is manufactured from a tough, durable, water resistant fabric. Clean fabric with household soap
or mild detergent and warm water only. Wipe dry. Do not machine dry.
C. Windows - Do not use your carrier in temperatures below -20ºC (-4ºF) . Plastic windows can crack at these low temperatures. If carrier is
stored/left out in very cold weather you will need to let it warm up before folding or uprighting.
D. Wheels and Axles - Wheels should be serviced by a Chariot Dealer at least twice a year. Check wheels for loose spokes and axles for
proper security every time you use your Chariot carrier.
E. Hardware and Fasteners - Regularly inspect nuts and bolts to ensure they are tightened securely.
F. Storage - Store your carrier in a dry, well-ventilated area. To avoid mildew, make sure carrier is dry before storing. Keep your carrier out of
the sun when not in use to reduce fading. Do not store the carrier attached to your bicycle.
Always inspect all parts every time you use your carrier!

SAFETY
SAFETY
GUIDELINES
GUIDELINES
Sixteen important rules for the safe use of your Chariot Carrier.
1. Read all instructions before use! Failure to read, understand and follow these instructions may result in an otherwise avoidable accident in
which you and/or your passengers could suffer serious injury or death.
2. The safe and proper use of this product is your responsibility! Take a practice bicycle ride, walk/run, hike, or cross-country ski with a
weighted carrier (weighted greater than your expected load with children and cargo) before using your carrier to ensure you can handle a
loaded carrier in each activity. Be extremely careful on hills and try to avoid them if possible. In addition to safe bicycle practices, the rules
listed below must be followed at all times.
3. Make sure your bicycle is in good working condition. We recommend a frequent safety check of your bike by a certified bicycle
mechanic.
4. Do not modify or alter carrier or bicycle. Ask your Chariot Dealer if you are not sure whether your bicycle is compatible with your
carrier.
5. When used as a bicycle trailer, children must be at least 1 year old and be able to sit upright alone. Consult your pediatrician
before carrying any child younger than one year.
6. Do not exceed the maximum carrier load of 75 lb (34 kg) for one child carriers and 100 lb (45 kg) for two child carriers. These
capacities include the weight of child/children and cargo. Articles carried in the carrier should be well anchored to avoid shifting during
travel. Unstable loads and overloading make the carrier less stable and more difficult to control.
7. Always fasten shoulder harness, lap belt and crotch strap securely and tightly around children. Periodically check placement of
shoulder straps, especially for a sleeping child. Make sure children cannot put fingers into the wheel spokes. Instruct children not to
bounce, rock or lean.
8. Do not leave children unattended in the carrier.
9. To insure a smooth ride, keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure shown on the tire side wall. Check tire pressure
before each use. Over inflating tires or use of high pressure tires can cause the carrier to overturn.
10. Use this carrier only with non-motorized bicycles capable of supporting the additional load of the carrier and child. Do not use
your carrier on electric bicycles, motorcycles, mopeds, automobiles or any other motor vehicle. Check the information supplied with
your bike to verify compatibility or ask your dealer.
11. Do not use a kickstand or other parking device to support the bicycle with a trailer attached. Attaching a trailer can change
the balance of the bicycle making kickstands ineffective. The bicycle can fall over, damaging it and the trailer.
12. Always use the high visibility flag supplied with the trailer. Do not assume you have the right-of-way. Do not pull your trailer in high
traffic areas such as busy streets, highways or anyplace it may be unsafe to ride with children.
13. Always verify that the folding brackets are secure and hold the carrier in an upright position.
14. Avoid riding at night. Your ability to see and be seen is greatly reduced. If you must ride at night, use proper lighting and reflectors on
your bicycle and wear bright reflective clothing
15. Both cyclist and children must wear approved bicycle helmets. If your child
is too small to properly wear the smallest size approved helmet, they should not
ride in the carrier.
16. Always obey all traffic laws, and use proper hand signals.
WARNING!
Bicycle trailers can tip over causing serious injury to
passenger/rider.
Hitting an obstacle with a wheel may cause the
trailer to tip over at any speed!

Your Chariot Carrier is shipped 99% assembled.
Initial assembly takes a few minutes. After that,
folding and unfolding can be done in seconds.
Stand at the back of the carrier body. Grab
the upper frame and pull up until it stops.
CAUTION: Pull back on the lower bars
from under the pivot brackets to avoid
pinching your fingers.
1.1 Wheel Assembly
Pull back on both the right and left lower
backtube bars until they “snap” all the way
back over center and the auto-lock disks
engage.
WARNING: Ensure that folding brackets
are correctly locked before using carrier.
Failure to do so could cause the carrier
to collapse.
To collapse the carrier, pull the release
disks and then push both the right and left
lower backtube bars forward until the
carrier is completely collapsed.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to collapse
carrier without first pulling the release
disks.
1. Depress the rubber cap on the wheel hub with your thumb and fully insert the clevis axle into the hollow axle. Once fully inserted and
secured, you should hear a “click” sound. Important: To ensure the axle system is engaged properly, test by trying to pull the wheel outwards
after installing. The wheel should be locked in its installed position. If not, do not use and take your carrier to your Chariot Dealer for servicing.
2. Repeat all steps for the other wheel.

1.3 Parking Brake Instructions
1.4 Suspension Adjustments (Cougar 1 and 2 models only)
NOTE: To determine the weight, you must
combine the weight of the passengers and
cargo. To adjust simply loosen knob, slide bracket
to desired weight range, and tighten knob.
NOTE: The bracket should be moved to the
location next to the weights noted (not on
top of the position).
If the suspension is making a hard "knock-
ing" sound, it means the weight setting is
too low and you need to slide the bracket
further towards the rear. Typically, the sus-
pension on both sides should be set to the
same position/range, however it is possible
to have them set to different positions if a
lighter child is on one side and a heavier
child on the other.
1.2 Handlebar Instructions
Depress both spring buttons and insert the
handlebars fully into the sleeves. Both spring
buttons must “pop” out of the holes located
on the inner side of the sleeves to secure
the handlebar in place.
Insert both ends of the handlebar into the
aluminum sleeves located at the upper rear
section of the carrier.
WARNING: Failure to properly install the
handlebars or use the wrist safety strap
could cause the carrier to become separated
from you resulting in serious injury.
The parking brake is located at the center of
the rear axle under the rear storage bag.
Note the 4 positions outlined in table where 1 represents the lightest load and 4 represents
the heaviest load.
All Cougar models come with adjustable suspension. Four adjustment ranges are suggested,
but it can be used in any position. The weight ranges suggested are based on the carrier being used
for cycling. The setting could be softer or stiffer for strolling/jogging. Experimenting may be required.
Disengage the parking brake by lifting the
plunger upwards.
Engage the parking brake by pressing the
plunger down on the brake housing.

weather cover over the aluminum sleeves
located at the upper rear section of the carrier.
RAIN COVER
ELASTIC LOOP
BACK PANEL
Note: Your Chariot Carrier has climate
control features designed to regulate
your child’s temperature. Periodically
monitor your child to ensure that he/she
is comfortable in terms of temperature.
During cooler temperatures use the rain cover to keep your child warmer. For more ventilation, roll up the rain cover and secure it by looping the
elastic loops around its ends. If it is bright outside or the sun is bothering your child, use the back panel as a sunscreen. To do so, remove the
weather cover, flip the back panel over the front of the carrier, secure it to the Velcro tabs located on the upper frame, and re-install the weath-
er cover. .
1.7 Rear Storage Compartments
Your Chariot carrier comes with three separate rear storage bags. The first (1) is the
rear cargo mesh storage area located directly behind the seat. The second (2) storage
area is located on the lower backside of the carrier. The third (3) is a small wallet pock-
et located inside the mesh storage. The maximum capacity for both storage compart-
ments is 1 kg/2.2 lb.
1.6 Side Window Removal
Your CX carrier is equipped with mesh windows
that provide maximum ventilation when the clear
plastic windows are removed. There are two zip-
pers that need to be unfastened to remove the
plastic window. Once removed, place the win-
dows in the rear storage compartment. The side
window can be partially zipped open to allow for
some ventillation without fully removing the win-
dow.
