Burley Piccolo Owner’s Instruction & Safety Manual
Annual or 1000-Mile Maintenance—Whichever Comes First
Perform these steps every year at the be gin ning of your riding season. If you are
riding in rain you will need to per form this main te nance every 6 months or 500
miles.
Clean and lubricate pivot points on derailleur; wipe excess oil to prevent dirt
buildup.
Inspect de railleur cable for fraying and replace as necessary.
Make sure gears are properly adjusted.
Verify that seat is properly positioned and securely tightened.
Check and tighten all nuts and screws on your Piccolo and Moose Rack.
Check wheel for trueness; inspect for cracks at the spoke hole or sidewall. Retrue
or replace as necessary.
Verify that the bottom bracket spins smoothly and doesn’t exhibit any play;
tighten fi xing bolts for crank arms to 18–20 ft.-lb.
Disassemble and repack the bearings in your headset, hitch spindle, hub, and
pedals.
Inspect chain, chainring, and rear cogs; replace if worn.
Clean and wax your trailercycle’s fi nish.
Repair or replace any damaged or worn-out parts.
IX. Transferring or Installing Additional
Moose Racks
If you need to install your Moose Rack on another bicycle, please contact your
Burley dealer. Because the rack offers a critical safety connection to the bicycle, it
is essential that a qualifi ed bicycle mechanic install the rack using the procedure in
section “III. Installing the Moose Rack.” Your dealer must use only genuine Bur ley
hardware, and replace any lock nuts they remove (these lock nuts are designed for
single use).
Additional Moose Racks are available at a reasonable cost. If you or your family have
more than one bike, you may choose to have your Burley dealer install a Moose Rack
on a second bike to allow you to easily switch your Burley Pic co lo from one bike to
the other.
Of course, these tough racks are perfectly suit ed for around-town use or cross-
country expeditions with or without a trailercycle attached. With our TIG-welded,
Chrome-Moly construction and lifetime warranty, a Moose Rack may be the last rack
you ever buy.
