Troubleshooting

Check that the drawbar is securely attached to the bike and that the trailer wheels are properly inflated and seated. Ensure the load is evenly distributed within the trailer and does not exceed the 45 kg limit.
Pet appears uncomfortable or overheated.
Ensure all mesh windows and the roof zipper are open to maximize airflow. Avoid using the trailer during the hottest parts of the day. Consider a cooling mat for the pet.
Zipper is difficult to operate.
Gently work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth if it continues to stick.

Review the attachment instructions carefully. Ensure you are using the correct mounting point on your bicycle and that all hardware is tightened appropriately. Verify your bike's compatibility with standard trailer hitch systems.
