WARNING
Failure to comply with the instructions and warnings in this manual could
result in serious injury or death.
• Recommended speed limits:
- 20 mph (32 km/h) on smooth, straight roads
- 5 mph (8 km/h) when turning or on uneven roads
• Because of the trailer's weight, a bicycle pulling a trailer is heavier and
less responsive. Avoid rocks, curbs, hard braking and sudden swerving.
Some full suspension bicycles and rear suspension recumbents might
have difficulty towing a fully loaded trailer because they do not have
adequate frame stiffness, which can lead to a sluggish and difficult to
control bicycle. Experiment with the loaded trailer in an uncongested
area until you become familiar with how your bike handles towing a
trailer.
• Use caution when riding downhill with a trailer as the additional weight
will require longer distances for braking.
• This trailer is intended for carrying cargo only.
- Do not use this trailer to carry children or animals.
• Ensure cargo is securely fastened and evenly distributed before use. If
cargo is not secure, the trailer's stability could be adversely affected
• Cargo should not be more than (20 in.) above the flooring. Cargo should
not be dropped into the cargo bay.
• When loading trailer, place the heaviest objects at the bottom to keep the
center of gravity as low as possible (a high center of gravity can adversely
affect the stability of the trailer).
• The QR Axle included with this trailer may not be appropriate for your
bike. Consult the Burley Ballz
TM
correct axle for your bike.
• Always use the safety flag included with this trailer to improve visibility
(safety flag should be inserted into the mounting tube on the rear of the
trailer frame).
• The trailer extends approximately 66 in. (167 cm) behind your bicycle.
Make sure to keep this in mind when making turns or passing other
bicycles/cars.
• The rider of the bicycle must be at least 16 years old.

retaining pin
- Improper installation of front yoke quick
release
- Road condition
• DO NOT use with a total load that exceeds the weight limits
• DO NOT make modifications to the trailer
• DO NOT over-inflate the tires. Failure to comply with the rated tire sidewall
pressure may lead to explosion of the tire and possible injury.
• DO NOT hang trailer by its fender.
• It is recommended that a qualified bicycle mechanic does a safety check of the
towing bicycle before attaching the trailer.
• Before each ride, be sure the trailer does not interfere with braking, pedaling
or steering of the bicycle. It is recommended that a rearview mirror be used on
the bike.
• Always comply with local regulations when using the trailer on public
roadways. Never ride a bicycle at night without adequate lighting. Obey all
local legal requirements for lighting. The red reflector that came with the
trailer must remain attached and visible at all times. If you need to come to a
stop for any reason, such as to make adjustments or to address a flat tire, be
sure to pull off of the road completely.
• Use good judgment when deciding if weather, road or traffic conditions are
safe to use the trailer. Recommended temperature limits for using the trailer
are 20°F to 100°F (-7°C to 38°C).
• Failure to comply with the instructions and safety guidelines in this manual
could result in serious injury or death.
