III. Installing the Quick-Release Levers
In the bag with the reflectors you’ll find two quick-release levers.Install these
through the hollow axle of the wheel.Make sure the lever is on the flat sideofthe
wheel,the thumb nut is on the deep-dished side,and the springs are mounted
on each side as shown in the illustration below.
The quick-release
lever must be on
flat side of wheel
and thumb nut on
deep-dished side.
This ensures that the
lever will be on the

IV. Attaching the Wheels
First,verify that the tires are inflated to 30–35 P.S.I.Next,tip the trailer frame on its
back end.If you are working on a rough or dirty surface,lay down a cloth or other
protective barrier to avoid damage to your trailer.Move the quick-release lever
to the unlocked position and place the wheels into the dropouts,making certain
that the axles go all the way into the slots.
IMPORTANT: Wheels are dished off-center and must be installed so
that tires are offset away from side panels, closest to outer frame.
Dished wheels are a unique feature from Burley; they create a wider
track, and thus a more stable trailer.
Once the wheels are fully seated in the dropout slots,the quick-release lever
should be positioned so that it operates in the fore and aft direction.The lever
is marked for open or closed positions.Tighten the right-hand wheel by moving
the lever from the front (open) to the rear (closed) position.Tighten the left-hand
wheel by moving the lever from the rear (open) to the front (closed) position.Use
the thumb nut to adjust for correct spacing of the quick-release lever.
When properly adjusted,you will feel resistance halfway through tightening the
lever (when the lever is pointing straight out away from the trailer).If you are
unfamiliar with the use of quick-release levers,contact your Burley dealer for a
demonstration.

ing it down is accomplished in a few easy steps

Tongue Installation and Operation
The tongue is the structure that connects the trailer to the bicycle hitch. It is
designed to be removed for storage and to adjust for either trailer or stroller use.
Tip your trailer frame on its back end. If you are working on a rough or dirty
surface,lay down a cloth or other protective barrier to avoid damage to your
trailer. To insert the tongue,slide it through the front and rear tongue mounts as
shown below. Depress the safety button to allow the tongue to insert past the
front tongue mount. The safety button will spring back out once it is completely
behind the front tongue mount.
Both safety pins must be locked in place before using trailer, oth-
erwiseroll baror tonguecould shiftand causean accidentor serious
injury.
Trailer Use
For use as a trailer,line up the rearmost hole on the tongue with the hole in the
rear tongue mount. Insert the pin through both holes. Once inserted,rotate the
pin’s spring clip to engage the pin underneath the tongue mount. Always check
to ensure the tongue is properly installed before using trailer.

Always check that the tongue is properly installed before each use.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
Stroller Use (requires optional Walk n’ Roller™ kit)
Your Burley d’Lite is
ready for stroller use
with the purchase
of the optionalWalk
‘n Roller™ kit from
your local bike shop.
For strolling,slide the
tongue back until the
stroller pin hole on the
tongue lines up with
the hole in the rear
tongue mount.Depress
the safety button a
second time to allow the tongue to slide past the rear tongue mount.Be sure to
replace the pin through the rear tongue mount and the tongue,and then en-
gage the pin’s clip.This option brings the stroller wheel closer to the main body
to stroller easily in tight spaces.
DO NOT attempt to attach the bicycle with the tongue in the
stroller position. There will not be adequate clearance for a bicycle
wheel.

Installation and Use of the Handle
Your Burley d’Lite comes with a two-position handle that allows for easier ma-
neuvering 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 d’Lite 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 below. The handle is designed for either a high or low
position depending on the height and comfort of the user. This position can be
changed by flipping the handle over and installing it as described above.
Parking Brake Operation
The pre-installed parking brake on your Burley d’Lite is used to keep the trailer
stationary when you park your bike or when using the optional Burley Jogger
Kit™ or BurleyWalk‘n Roller Kit™.
To engage the brake,
move the handle to
the left.
Simply move the
handle to the right to

trailer and into the flag pocket at the bottom left hand corner of the trailer as
shown below. DO NOT USEYOURTRAILERWITHOUTTHE SAFETY FLAG IN PLACE.
Folding Your Burley d’Lite
Folding your Burley d’Lite is basically the reverse of unfolding it.Familiarize your-
self with unfolding the trailer as outlined above.To fold your trailer:
1. Remove the safety flag and the handle.
2. Remove the safety pin at the roll bar and discon-
nect the two buckles at the back of the child seat.
Fold the roll bar against the side panel. Fold the left
side panel first, then the right side panel.
3. Remove the wheels and store them in a safe area
with the handle.
4. Remove the safety pin at the rear tongue lock.
5. Depress the safety button and slide the tongue
out of the trailer.
We recommend reinserting the safety pins in their receptacles for storage or
transport to avoid snagging.
You can partially fold your Burley d’Lite as needed.Your options are to fold only
the side panels,remove only the tongue and hitch,remove the quick-release
wheels,or any combination of the above. Do not operate your Burley d’Lite in a
partially folded condition.
