Quick Answer
Assemble the Doona Liki Trike S5 by unfolding the frame with the patented one-click fold, then secure the seat, attach the parent push handle, and lock the front wheel before your first ride.
Why Assembly Is Simpler Than You Think
The Doona Liki Trike S5 is designed for quick transitions, so most of the setup is about unfolding and locking rather than using tools. The patented small-fold mechanism lets you go from folded to ready in seconds once you know the sequence.
The main trade-off is that the trike arrives partially assembled. You still need to attach the seat, handlebar, and safety harness, and each step has a click or lock you should verify before moving on. Skipping a check can leave a part loose, which affects steering or folding later.
Step-by-Step Assembly Guide
- Unbox and inventory: Lay out all parts and check the instruction manual. Confirm the frame, seat, handlebar, and wheels are present before starting. Missing parts? Contact Cuddleco support before proceeding.
- Unfold the frame: Press the release button and unfold the frame until it clicks into place. Ensure both locks engage fully—a common mistake is stopping when only one side clicks. Check both sides of the frame for a firm click before continuing.
- Attach the front wheel: Insert the front wheel axle into the front fork until it snaps. Rotate the wheel to confirm it spins freely and the fork locks securely. If the wheel wobbles, re-seat the axle and push until you hear the lock engage.
- Install the rear wheels: Slide each rear wheel onto the rear axle, aligning the hub with the groove. Push until you feel a firm click on both sides. Check that both wheels spin without resistance. Both rear wheels must click; a loose wheel can cause uneven steering.
- Attach the seat and safety harness: Position the seat on the frame and click it into place until you hear a secure lock. Thread the harness straps through the slots and adjust them to fit your child snugly. Ensure the harness buckle clicks audibly and the straps are not twisted.
- Install the parent handlebar: Slide the parent handlebar into the designated slot until it locks. Push down gently to confirm it is secure before use. Give the handlebar a firm tug to verify it is locked—do not proceed if it moves.
- Set up the canopy and accessories: Attach the canopy by clicking it into the frame brackets. If your model includes a footrest or safety bar, install them according to the manual, ensuring each clicks into place. Check that all attachments are fully clicked and do not wobble.
