The following steps assembles your EXPLORER TRIKE 4in1 into infant trike mode. For a detailed guide on how to transform your EXPLORER TRIKE 4in1 into its different modes, refer to this article on how to switch EXPLORER TRIKE series between different modes.

Rear wheel installation

  1. Start off by getting the trike’s front wheel fork. Once on-hand, align the front wheel’s fork with the frame of the trike, and then insert the stem of the front wheel’s fork into the frame.
  2. Take the handlebars and align them with the front wheel, then insert the handlebars in the correct direction (top column must be facing outwards, away from the seat) on the trike’s frame. Push the handlebars down until you hear a click to securely fix them in place.

Turn the pedal locks of the front wheel in the direction of the unlocked symbol, and then place the pedal in the front wheel’s slot. Turn the pedal lock in the direction of the “locked” symbol to secure the pedal in the front wheel. Repeat this step for the second pedal.

Note: You may need to hold the opposite pedal lock to ensure that the pedal doesn’t spin freely.

 

Rear wheel installation

  1. Unscrew the knob at the end of the wheel assembly.

    Note: the brakes of the rear wheels must be pointing inward when the rear wheels are being installed (applies to all trike modes).

  2. Place the wheel in the hexagonal slot at the rear of the trike frame (make sure the brake is upwards and is not touching the ground). Once the wheel is in the correct position, re-screw the knob back into the wheel slot to ensure the wheel will remain securely in place.

 

Saddle installation

  1. To insert the saddle, you must first open the clamp and press the bottom spring-loaded button on the saddle stem.
  2. Push the saddle down until you hear a click. Close the clamp.

The baby tricycle’s saddle is adjustable with two heights available (31cm & 34cm). The This is the highest possible height of the saddle is marked “MAX” on the saddle’s stem, and pushing the saddle down until the saddle’s stem is inserted almost fully is the lowest height of the saddle.

 

Footrest installation

  2. Twist the knob under the footrest to 90 degrees in order to secure the footrest. The footrest must be facing forwards, not backwards, to be in the correct position.

 

How to install the parking bar on the rear wheels

Note: Only applicable to INFANT TRIKE mode

  1. Install the bar inside the dedicated hole of the parking device on one of the rear wheels.
  2. Put the parking bar inside the 2nd hole located on the parking device of the other rear wheel.
  3. Install both wheels with the parking bar into the trike’s frame. Place both wheels in the hexagonal slots at the rear of the trike frame and ensure that the parking devices are upwards and don’t touch the ground. Once the wheels are in the correct position, screw the knobs into the wheels’ slot to ensure the wheels will remain securely in place.

Make sure the bar is securely fixed before using the product. The parking bar is only applicable to EXPLORER TRIKE 4in1’s infant trike mode. Remove the parking bar before using the products in other modes.

 

High-back seat, safety bar, headrest and canopy installation

Take the middle safety bar and unscrew the top cap before proceeding with the following steps:

  1. Put one side of the safety bar on top of the middle safety bar, followed by the other side. Screw the cap on top of the middle safety bar to secure the right and left safety bars.

    If both safety bar sides are levelled on the same height, this means the above step has been done correctly.

  2. Put the seat on top of the saddle. Make sure the knob on the seat is aligned with the saddle slot, so it can slide through the saddle slot.

To secure the seat to the saddle, do the following:

  • Turn the knob under the seat to 90 degrees.
  • Insert the middle safety bar in the hole at the front of the seat.
  • Press the red button on the side of the middle safety bar and push until the red button is hidden in the seat.
  • Slide the sides of the safety bar into the gaps on the side of the seat.1
  • Insert the headrest to the seat.
  • Slide the canopy into the opening at the back of the seat’s backrest until you hear a click.

  1. Take the top part of the parent handle (where the black handle is located) and place it into the bottom shaft by pressing the spring-loaded button.

    There are 2 available heights on the parent handlebar (92cm & 96.5cm).

  2. Make sure to align the spring-loaded button with the holes. You must hear a click to ensure the handle is securely in place.
  3. To secure the parent handlebar to the trike, carefully place the shaft through the saddle’s hole and into the hole on the trike’s frame. Once you hear a click, the pole is secure.

To remove the parent handle, press the red button under the trike’s frame. Release the shaft and carefully lift the parent handle out.
