PRODUCT FEATURES

KIDS BALANCE TOY ON WHEELS is a bicycle without pedals, which develops in your child sense of orientation and speed in a safe way. This creates a feeling of balance and safety because the child’s feet are in contact with the ground at all times. While riding the bike, the child learns to balance and exercises different moves (turn left and right), learns to control speed depending on its abilities.

The TOY is intended for children older than 24 months with weight not more than 30kg.
The handle bar and saddle are adjustable in height.
Safe grips on the handle bar

Tools needed: Hex key and bike wrench (included in the set).

В – The fork rod should protrude beyond the front part of the frame.

STEP 2:
А – Remove the cylinder bearing 5а from the handlebar, then place it on the protruding fork rod. The narrow part of the cylinder should completely retract in the front part of the frame. This way the fork will be properly connected to the frame which will prevent it from shifting.
В – Place the handlebar in the front wheel fork. Make sure that the first element that will be placed above the cylinder bearing is the flat washer (part 4), then the handlebar clamp (part 3a) and at the top the end cap for handlebar (part 2a).
С – Adjust the height of the handlebar to suit your child’s height and tighten the hex screw of the handlebar clamp clockwise.

CAUTION! There is a security tag on the handle bar post. The handle bar must be adjusted in position so that the security tag is never visible!

STEP 3:
А – First loosen the saddle clamp (part 3b) with hex key so that you can slide the saddle rod through it. When mounting the saddle, remember to adjust it to fit the child’s height. Set the saddle in a suitable height position, so that the saddle front is positioned above the tube frame and not sideways
В – To lock the saddle at the selected height, tighten the saddle clamp with a hex key clockwise.

CAUTION! Adjust the height of the saddle by following the security tag on the post (the mark must not be visible).
CAUTION! The toy must be used with increased caution, because it requires balance skills. In this way,
you will avoid falling or collisions, which may injure the child or third persons.

CHOOSING THE OPTIMAL POSITION OF THE SEAT
The child must be comfortably seated, not leaning forward to the handle bar and its feet must be in full contact with the ground.

IMPORTANT! For beginners we recommend initially to use the lowest position of the seat!

HELMET, KNEE AND ELBOW PROTECTORS, AND SHOES
FOR MORE SAFETY WHEN THE CHILD USES THE TOY, IT SHOULD WEAR A HELMET, KNEE AND ELBOW PROTECTORS AND SHOES!

The helmet must be steady on the head, not tilted back or in position in which it does not protect the forehead.
