Using the Tandem Buggy
GETTING INTO THE STROLLER
Make sure that the parking brake is on. Fold the footrest out of the way and recline the
footrest rails as far back as possible. Either ask another helper to steady the stroller by holding
the handle, or place the handle up against a wall to minimise the risk of tipping. Place the child in
the stroller, fasten the harnesses, attach the occupant bar, and adjust the footrest.
The child should always feel comfortable and secure in the stroller.
GETTING OUT OF THE STROLLER
Make sure that the parking brake is on. Reverse the procedure for getting into the stroller.
NEGOTIATING A KERB OR SINGLE STEP
To go down a kerb, approach the kerb until the front castors are near the edge. Grip the handle
firmly and tip the stroller backwards to balance on the rear wheels. Lower the castors over the
kerb on the rear wheels, returning the front castors to the ground when you have reached the
lower level.
To go up a kerb, reverse the procedure. Do not approach the kerb with the front castors. This
may seem easier, but puts more strain on the stroller and also on you.
Never tip a stroller forwards at a kerb.
Always make use of ramps and lifts if they are available.
Do not attempt to mount a flight of stairs or steps.
