Burley Solo Owner’s Instruction and Safety Manual
Installation and Use of the Handle
Your 2004 Burley Solo ™ comes with a two-position
handle that allows for easier maneuvering of the trailer
when it is not attached to your bicycle. The handle is
also an important part of the optional Burley Jogger
Kit™ and the optional Walk ‘n Roller™ kit. Both of these
accessories are available at your local bike shop.
The handle for the Solo is installed quite easily. Simply
depress the buttons on either side of the handle and
slide the handle into the handle bar receivers as shown in
the illustration at right. The handle is designed for either
a high or low position depending on the height and com-
fort of the user. This position can be changed by fl ipping
the handle over and installing it as described above.
Parking Brake Installation and
Operation
Install the parking brake on the right rear main
frame as shown here (mounting the brake is easier
when the trailer is folded). The brake clamps to
the frame just in front of the right rear hinge. First,
take the brake clamp apart, put the two parts of the
clamp into place as shown (a. the bolt hole should
be in the lower position). Hold the nut in the grove
of the clamp with a fi nger. Put the rest of the brake
as sem bly into place and snug up the bolt using a
7/16" socket and an ex ten sion.
Adjust the brake by sliding the clamp fore and aft on
the main frame. When engaged it should defl ect a
prop er ly in fl at ed tire at least 1/4".
Your main ob jec tive is to get the park ing brake to
hold the tire very tight ly even with the max i mum 75
lb. load. Note that any change in tires will re quire a
re ad just ment of the parking brake. Tighten the bolt
to 6 ft.-lb. to secure the brake clamp.
