BURLEY NOMAD AND FLATBED OWNER’S INSTRUCTION AND SAFETY MANUAL 3
Congratulations!
Your Burley® trailer is the leading choice of refined bicycle
trailer owners worldwide. Every effort has been made to
ensure your purchase is of top quality and proven design,
ready to provide you with many years and miles of happy,
safe trailering.
Please go to www.burley.com or contact us at
burley@burley.com to register your warranty information.
IMPORTANT
IT IS VERY IMPORTANT FOR YOU TO FAMILIARIZE YOURSELF
WITH YOUR BURLEY BY READING THIS ENTIRE MANUAL
BEFORE USE. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT
YOUR AUTHORIZED BURLEY DEALER.
Introduction
Once you’ve done the initial assembly and read the safety
guidelines, you’re ready to go! Before trailering, be sure you
have the tow bar, trailer wheels and hitch securely attached.
Note: Any reference to left or right is made in direction
of travel, as if you were standing behind the trailer,
looking forward.
Safety Guidelines
WARNING
BICYCLING WITH A TRAILER, AND BICYCLING IN GENERAL, CAN
BE HAZARDOUS. FAILURE TO OBSERVE ANY OF THE SAFETY
GUIDELINES IN THIS MANUAL COULD RESULT IN AN ACCIDENT
AND SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
1. Inspect and maintain your bicycle and trailer regularly.
See “Safety Checklists”.
2. Because of the trailer’s additional weight, a bicycle
pulling a trailer is heavier and less responsive. Avoid
sudden swerving, rocks and curbs. Experiment with the
loaded trailer in an uncongested area until you become
familiar with it.
3. The total weight limit for the trailer and cargo is 100 lbs
(40 kg in Europe). Load cargo securely in the center,
forward of the axle and as low as possible.
4. Observe recommended speed limits: a maximum of
15 mph (24 km/h) on smooth, straight roads and
5 mph (8 km/h) or less when turning or on
uneven roads.
5. Never pull your trailer with a motorized vehicle.
6. The cyclist must wear a helmet.
7. Only use factory-supplied wheels, with the tires inflated
to the pressure recommended on the tire side wall.
Check pressure before each use.
8. Clamp the hitch securely to the bicycle frame, and check
for a tight attachment before each use.
9. Use the safety flag. (Nomad Only)
10. Do not make alterations to the trailer. Contact your
Authorized Burley Dealer or go to www.burley.com for
replacement of any damaged, worn-out or missing parts.
11. Do not use your trailer on icy roads or when inclement
weather makes cycling hazardous.
12. The use of a mirror on your bicycle is recommended.
13. For emergencies, breakdowns or flat tires, pull
completely off the road and move to a safe area before
doing repairs.

Safety Checklists
Check Before Each Ride:
Wheels tightly attached, with quick release levers securely locked
Tires inflated to recommended pressure on tire side wall
Hitch properly secured with safety strap in place
Locked retaining pin for tow bar
Maximum load 100 lbs (40 kg in Europe)
Bicycle safety check, especially brakes and tires
Helmet for cyclist
Safety flag in place (Nomad Only)
Cargo loaded and secured correctly
Monthly Checklist
Inspect tow bar, hitch, frame tubing, flex connector and hardware for damage
Inspect tires for wear and cracks
Inspect wheels for trueness and cracks
Inspect wheel bearings for wear
Inspect fabric parts for rips, abrasion, or missing or damaged hardware
Contact your Authorized Burley Dealer for replacement of any damaged or worn-out parts
Maintenance and Storage
Hitch and Tow Bar Maintenance
Store trailer indoors if possible. Do not use or store trailer at temperatures below 32˚F (C), as the hitch flex connector can
become brittle and possibly break, causing an accident resulting in serious injury.
Fabric Care
Hand wash fabric parts with mild soap or detergent and warm water. For heavy soiling, use a nylon bristle brush. Do not use
bleach. Polyester fabric will eventually fade, especially when exposed to direct sunlight. Wipe dry (to help avoid mildew) and
store out of direct sunlight in a dry, well ventilated area, or use a Burley Trailer Storage Cover to protect your trailer. Replace
any damaged parts.
