Installing and removing the hitch arm
The hitch arm is installed on the front left side of the
Croozer Cargo (relative to the direction of travel). The front
of the Trailer has white re ectors.
1. Lift the front of the Croozer Cargo.
2. Hold the hitch arm with the curvature and the hole (1)
facing outwards, and slide the end into the hitch arm
attachment bracket (2) until you hear and feel it snap
into place.
It is very important that you do not confuse the hitch
arm attachment bracket with the handlebar attachment
bracket (marked with a warning label). The handlebar
attachment bracket is not intended for use with the hitch
arm. The use of the Trailer with the hitch arm attached
to the wrong bracket could cause accidents with serious
injury or death. The improper use of the brackets could
also damage the Trailer.
3. To remove the hitch arm, press the release mecha-
nism (3) and pull the hitch arm out of the bracket.
Installing the axle hitch to the towing bicycle
The hitch assembly is mounted to the left side of the bicy-
cle (relative to the direction of travel) and consists of two
parts: a hitch connector (1) on the hitch arm of the Croozer
Cargo and an axle hitch (2), which is mounted to the rear
axle of the towing bicycle.
However, before using a bicycle for pulling the Croozer
Cargo, you must  rst check whether it is suitable for use
as a towing bicycle. This information can be obtained from
the bicycle manufacturer, a bicycle shop or the owner’s
manual of the bicycle.
It is vitally important to confirm that the towing bicycle is
suitable for pulling trailers. Pulling a trailer with a bicycle
that has not been approved by its manufacturer for use
as a towing bicycle can result in frame breakage or other
material damage. This could cause accidents with seri-
ous injury or death.
If you are not completely con dent about your ability to
install the axle hitch correctly, please consult with, or
have the installation performed by, a professional bicycle
mechanic.
It is vitally important that the hitch be properly installed.
An improperly installed hitch could come loose while rid-
ing and cause accidents with serious injury or death.
