Installation Manual

Assembling the Axle:
4. Take one cotter pin and put it in the
inside most hole of the axle. Use the
pliers and bend the pin over.
(Repeat this on other side of the
axle.)
5. Take a washer and slide it onto the axle. (Repeat this on other side also.)
6. Take the wheels and place them on the axle with the grease fitting to the inside
(toward the bike). (The wheel bearings may fit tight. If tight sand paint off
axle.)
7. Place a washer on the outside of the whe
el (both wheels). Place a cotter pin into
the outside most hole on the axle and bend over using your pliers.
Attaching Axle to Axle Mounting Plates:
8. Use two (2) half-round mounting blocks and four (4)
¼”x 2” Bolts. Slide the bolts through both, the Axle
Mounting Plate and the Half-Round Mounting Block
using the bottom two holes of the Axle Mounting Plate.
Make sure the half-round shape is facing outward.
9. Take the axle, two (2) half-round mounting blocks, and
four (4) 1/4” lock-nuts.
9.1 The axle should have the bend facing the front of the motorcycle.
**When the wheels are attached they should
be in front of the foot
pegs.**
9.2 Place the axle between the bolts and into the half-round mounting
blocks. Place the remaining two mounting blocks over the axle. The
bolt holes should line up. Use the lock-nuts
to attach the blocks together. **Do not
tighten the bolts at this time.**
10. Adjusting the Universal Trainer:
10.1 Standing over the motorcycle make sure the
Axle Mounting Plates are pointed
straight down from the foot pegs.
(Not pointed in or out from
the foot peg.)
10.2 Tighten the Axle Mounting Plates at the foot peg location.
10.3 Measure from the bend in the axle to the
Axle Mounting Plates on both sides. Slide the
axle to make the measurements equal. Slightly
tighten the bolts at the mounting blocks.
10.4 Make sure the spacing between the two mounting blocks stay the same.
You can do this by counting the amount of turns made when tighten-
ing the nuts. Stop tightening when the axle is snug but can be moved
up or down with a little pressure.
10.5 Standing over the motorcycle. Hold the motor-
cycle straight up and down. Measure 1 ½” – 2”
from the ground to the bottom of the axle
wheels. (Lower for beginning riders)
10.6 Tighten the bolts to hold the axle in place.
11.
Double check all fastening points at this time. Push the motorcycle from side-to-
side and make sure your Universal Trainer wheel height is correct.
12. You can adjust for less lean by lowering the Universal Trainer wheels. The oppo-
site can be done to adjust for more lean. (If you give the motorcycle more
than 2-1/2” of lean, the motorcycle will be able to ip over in corners or
turns or will ride leaning to one side.) **Not good for educating your rider!!
NOTE: Universal Trainer operates best with tires a few pounds lower (3-5 lbs.)
rather than fully inflated. You may check tire pressure by using a tire gage. (*You can
also help your rider gain confidence by raising the wheels higher off the ground or by
lowering wheel’s air pressure. Use this technique when starting to move riders off
the training wheels. *REMEMBER
do not raise the wheels more than 2-1/2”off the
ground, tip-overs will occur.)
Caution:
Never
hit holes or other objects with Universal Trainer. A situa-
tion such as this could not only throw the rider, but you could
damage the Universal Trainer and/or your motorcycle. Do not
exceed speeds of 10 mph while using
Universal Trainer
.
**This is only a training aid apparatus not meant for jumping and
racing conditions. Failure to use the Universal Trainer in its de-
signed way may cause bodily injury or Death!
