4)
CAUTION: Never park the bicycle leaving the child unattended in
the seat.
5)
CAUTION: Do not use the seat if any part is missing or broken.
6)
CAUTION: A front mounted seat can reduce the manoeuvrability of
the handlebar.
7)
It is recommended to change the type of handlebar if the steering
angle for each side is less than 45 °.
Mounting and assembling the child seat
Illustration 1:
Holding the seat upside-down, insert the support arm (6).
Illustration 2:
After having lifted up the padding in the seating area, insert the short-
est two screws (10) in the holes.
Illustration 3:
Place the fixing plate (12) in correspondence with the screws (10) pro-
truding from the bottom of the seat. Attach the clamp using the two M6
hexagonal nuts with the toothed washers.
Illustration 4:
With the screws loosened, place the support arm in one of three pos-
sible positions, then tighten the nuts using the wrench (14) until they
are tightly fastened. Optimal torque is 8Nm.
Illustration 5A-5B
Choose the plastic reduction (11) which is adapted to the diameter of
the bicycle's handlebar tube and insert it in the fastening block (7).
Each reduction shows the reference diameters. Apply the covers (9) to
the U-shaped brackets (8). Choose one of the possible configurations
based on the type of bicycle frame you have, as shown in figure 5B.
Insert the ends of the U-shaped brackets (8) in the fastening block (7),
in the rotating pins (15) and then secure them with the 4 hexagonal
nuts (16). Apply the casings(17) to cover the protruding parts of the
U-shaped brackets (8).
Illustration 6:
Take the seat and insert the two ends of the support arm (6) into the
fastening block holes. Verify that the support arm is correctly inserted
and locked by the safety spring release: pulling the seat upwards, this
should not exit the fastening block.
In case the seat interferes with the handlebars or with pedalling, return
to the illustration 4 and adjust the support arm of the seat, moving it
forwards or backwards as required.
Illustration 7:
To remove the seat, hold the centre button of the fastening block (7)
and pull the seat upwards.
Illustration 8:
Insert each footrest (4) with the respective belt in the relative housing.

Illustration 9:
Pass the four hooks (18) in the housings provided and press down until
the catch snaps (19).
To adjust the height of the footrests:
• Push the catch (19) with a finger from the outside, while raising the
footrest with the other hand, then remove the footrest from its housing.
• Insert the footrest in the desired position.
Use of the seat:
Illustration 10:
Only mount the seat between the handlebars and the bicycle saddle.
Illustration 11:
Apart from the safety belts, the Orion child's seat has a fastening
shackle that prevents the child from getting up and moving around
dangerously while being carried. To open the fastening shackle, push
the button (20). Take the fastening shackle out of its housing by rotat-
ing it until it stops.
Illustration 12:
After having seated the child, close the fastening shackle until the but-
ton (20) is completely inserted in its housing. Check that the fastening
shackle is blocked.
Illustration 13:
When the child is seated in the seat, secure his/her feet by passing the
belt under the connector (21), and blocking the belt on the pin (22) in
the desired position. To release the child's feet, pull the belt outwards
to release it from the pin (22).
Illustration 14:
The fastening shackle is suitable for children who are a few months
old (weighing about 7 to 10 Kg). When the child weighs over 10kg, the
fastening shackle could squeeze the child and it would therefore be
necessary to remove it. In this way the seat can be used up to a maxi-
mum child weight of 15kg. To remove the fastening shackle, exercise
pressure with a normal screwdriver, removing the cap blocking the pin.
Illustration 15:
At this point the pin can be extracted from the housing, releasing the
fastening shackle.
Illustration 16:
Using light pressure, snap the two closing caps (13) into place to close
the openings that have been formed due to the absence of the fastening
shackle.
Illustration 17:
If you want to replace the fastening shackle, remove the closing caps
(13) and put the fastening shackle back into place using the relative
screw and nut, tightening it with the wrench supplied (14).
