Instructions
Take the tricycle out of the box, separating out the parts. Set aside wheels, nuts and bolts, handlebars and frame.
Attach the wheels. The front wheel is larger than the others and should have the pedals already attached. Slip the front wheel into the front fork. The front fork is located at the front of the bike. Slip the wheel into the slots at the bottom of the fork and tighten the nuts around the pedal cranks.
Slip the rear wheels onto the axles. Tighten the bolts. Spin the wheels and test that they rotate freely. If not, loosen the bolts one quarter turn on each wheel.
Install the seat in the top of the frame. Tighten the seat bolt with the seat in a low position. Raise the seat as necessary - remember, the child must be able to reach the pedals as well as the floor.
Push the handlebars into the tube above the front wheel. Tighten the metal ring between the handlebars and the front wheel until the handlebars are tight.
Put on the handlebar grips. If you have them, tape some streamers onto the end of the handlebars.
Pump up the tires, if necessary, with a hand pump to recommended pressure, usually 20 to 30 lbs.
