WARNINGS  
.
Never leave child unattended in the stroller.  
.
Always use seat harness to avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out.  
.
Never allow occupants to stand in stroller.  
.
Always use Wrist Safety Strap.  
.
Do not attach parcels or bags to the handle or frame of stroller except those recommended by BOB, as stroller can become unstable  
and tip over.  
.
Do not place sharp objects in the seatback pocket as your child leans against this and can be injured as a result.  
.
When starting out and during use, always make sure the child’s hands and feet are away from wheels.  
.
Do not use stroller on stairs or steep inclines. Stroller can tip over, resulting in injury.  
.
Never pull a loaded stroller backward up stairs. Doing so could damage the suspension system – leading to frame failure and serious  
injury to the user and/or the occupants.  
.
Use extreme caution when using stroller on uneven and/or unpaved surfaces as these conditions create additional hazards and can  
lead to loss of stability and injury.  
.
Do not make any modifications to the stroller. Doing so voids the warranty and could lead to a dangerous condition and possible injury.  
.
Transportation of stroller requires protection to prevent damage to stroller components that could lead to an accident and injury.  
.
We do not recommend wearing roller skates or in-line skates while pushing stroller.  
.
The stroller is not equipped for use after dark. If you intend to use at night, we recommend installing a front and rear lighting system  
available through your local bike shop.  
.
Failure to properly assemble or install the quick release wheels on this stroller may result in the wheels becoming detached while  
moving and a subsequent loss of control, resulting in serious injury or death. (See sections 4 & 5)  
.
.
Never jog with the stroller in Walk Mode because doing so could result in loss of control. (See section 6)  
The parking brake is not designed as a stopping brake. The brake should not be used to slow or stop the stroller because doing so  
could cause the stroller to stop abruptly, resulting in loss of control. The brake is intended to park the stroller on flat surfaces, not on  
inclines. Never leave your children in the stroller unattended with or without the parking brake set!  
.
.
Never load or unload the stroller without the parking brake set. (See section 8)  
The maximum weight capacity of the stroller is 100 lbs (45 kg) (occupant plus luggage weight). Do not exceed the maximum capacity,  
as stroller will become unstable. (See section 11)  
.
Always jog with the stroller seat in the fully upright position. Jogging with the seat in reclined positions may result in a loss of stability  
and injury. (See section 12)  
.
When seat is fully reclined, (Fig. 21) backward tip-over is more likely, and may result in an accident or injury, as seat and/or passenger  
may contact ground before handlebar. (See section 12)  
.
Follow instructions and use care when folding and unfolding stroller to prevent finger entrapment. (See section 15)  
BOB IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR INJURY, DAMAGE, OR FAILURE THAT RESULTS FROM OWNER’S FAULTY ASSEMBLY OR

other dropout. The amount of clamping force is controlled by the tension adjusting nut.  
Turning the tension adjusting nut clockwise while keeping the cam lever from rotating  
increases clamping force; turning it counterclockwise while keeping the cam lever from  
rotating reduces clamping force. Less than half a turn of the tension adjusting nut can  
make the difference between safe clamping force and unsafe clamping force.

Front Wheel Secondary Retention Devices  
All 2007 and newer BOB Strollers have front forks which utilize secondary wheel retention  
devices designed to help keep the wheel from disengaging if the quick release is  
incorrectly adjusted. Secondary retention devices are not a substitute for correct quick  
release adjustment. The secondary retention devices on your stroller are the integral  
type that is formed into the outer faces of the front fork dropouts.

WARNING: Do not remove or disable secondary retention devices. As its name  
implies, they serve as a back-up for a critical adjustment. If the quick release is  
not adjusted correctly, the secondary retention devices can reduce the risk of the  
wheel disengaging from the fork. Removing or disabling the secondary retention  
devices may also void the warranty.  
Secondary retention devices are not a substitute for correct quick release  
adjustment. Failure to properly adjust the quick release mechanism can cause  
the wheel to wobble or disengage, which could cause you to lose control and fall,  
resulting in serious injury or death.

with wheel in position. Adjust nut snug  
with Quick Release in OPEN position.  
b. Insert the wheel between the fork blades so that the axle seats firmly at the top of  
the slots that are at the tips of the fork blades — the fork dropouts. The quick release  
cam lever should be on the left side of the stroller (Fig. 8 & 9).  
c. Holding the quick release cam lever in the OPEN position with your right hand as  
shown in Fig. 8, tighten the tension adjusting nut with your left hand until it is finger  
tight against the fork dropout.

d. While pushing the wheel firmly to the top of the slots in the fork dropouts, and at the  
same time centering the wheel rim in the fork, move the quick release cam lever  
upwards and swing it into the FULLY CLOSED position (Fig. 7 & 9). The lever should  
now be parallel to the fork blade and curved toward the wheel. To apply enough  
clamping force, you should have to wrap your fingers around the fork blade for  
leverage, and the quick release cam lever should leave a clear imprint in the palm  
of your hand.

WARNING: Securely clamping the wheel takes considerable force. If you can fully  
close the quick release without wrapping your fingers around the fork blade for  
leverage, and the quick release cam lever does not leave a clear imprint in the  
palm of your hand, the tension is insufficient. Open the lever; turn the tension  
adjusting nut clockwise a quarter turn; then try again.

6. SWIVEL LOCKOUT:  
The Revolution Duallie stroller can be used in one of two modes. The stroller can be  
used as a swiveling wheel stroller (Walk Mode) when the Lockout Knob is in the unlocked  
position (Fig. 10). Or, it can be used as a fixed wheel stroller (Jog Mode) when the  
swivel Lockout Knob is in the locked position (Fig. 11). To change from Walk Mode to  
Jog Mode, lift and slide the Lockout Knob (Fig. 10) up and all the way to the right. Then  
release the knob, and it will snap down. Next, rotate the fork until the pin engages and  
locks the fork in position. You are now ready to use the stroller in Jog Mode. To change  
the stroller back to Walk Mode, lift the Lockout Knob and rotate it to the left.

WARNING: Never jog with the stroller in Walk Mode because doing so could  
result in loss of control.  
7. TRACKING ADJUSTMENT:  
It should be noted that all fixed three wheeled vehicles can be easily influenced to  
deviate from a straight path. In some cases strollers can have or develop a tendency  
to pull to the right/left due to many different factors including uneven tire pressure,  
improper wheel installation, road conditions and manufacturing tolerances. If you find  
your BOB stroller to significantly track or pull to the left or right while in Jog Mode during  
use on flat terrain, follow the sequence of instructions below.

a. Empty the stroller.  
WARNING: Do not roll test with a child or any occupant in the stroller.  
b. Find a location on level ground approximately 16 ft. long. It is helpful to use an existing  
straight-line as a frame of reference such as the edge of the sidewalk or a painted line  
in a playground.

c. Align the stroller so the rear wheel axles are perpendicular to the straight line. Push  
and release the stroller, trying carefully not to influence its direction to the left or right,  
so it rolls straight down the test path. This step should be performed more than once  
to make sure the stroller was not biased left or right by the pushing action.  
d. If the stroller consistently pulls to the left or right when pushed straight, proceed with  
the steps below until tracking is satisfactory. Fig. 12 illustrates how to interpret the  
results.

Fine tune tracking of stroller is accomplished by using the tracking adjustment knob  
shown in Fig. 13. If your stroller pulls to the left, turn the knob counter-clockwise 1/2  
turn. If your stroller pulls to the right, turn the knob clockwise 1/2 turn. Repeat roll test  
and adjustment until the stroller rolls straight.  
8. PARKING BRAKE:  
The brake is a parking brake, it prevents the stroller from moving while loading and  
unloading. The parking brake is not designed as a stopping brake.

WARNING: Do not use the brake to slow or stop the stroller because doing so  
could cause the stroller to stop abruptly, resulting in loss of control.  
Fig. 14 Parking Brake - Locked position.  
WARNING: The brake is intended to park the stroller on flat surfaces, not on  
inclines. Never leave your children in the stroller unattended with or without the  
parking brake set!  
To set the parking brake, press the brake bar down into the locked position (Fig. 14)  
with your foot on one of the red foot pedals – making sure the locking pin fully engages  
the locking disk. To ensure the brake is set properly, attempt to roll the stroller fore and  
aft after setting the brake. If the stroller will not roll, the brake is set properly. To release  
the parking brake, lift up on the red foot pedal with your foot until the brake bar springs  
up into the fully unlocked position (Fig. 15).  
9. AFOD:  
Brake Bar  
With the stroller in the fully open position, attach the AFOD (Anti-Fly-Out-Device) around  
the cross tube with the plastic buckle (Fig. 16), so the AFOD is between parking brake  
and low boy cargo pouch. It is important that the AFOD is always properly secured when  
using the stroller, as it is part of the child’s seat restraint system. It is however, necessary  
to release the AFOD in order to fold the stroller.

10. SUN CANOPY:  
The stroller features an independently adjustable two position canopy for each seat. To  
fully open the canopy, rotate the assembly forward until the fabric is taut. The rear  
canopy flap should be freed from the Velcro to give additional sun protection. To reduce  
the size of the sun canopy, pull the canopy toward the handlebar. The additional fabric  
can be gathered by pulling the canopy drawstring (Fig. 1) and securing the cord lock.

To fully recline the seat, unfasten side release buckles at seat back. (Fig. 21)  
WARNING: When seat is fully reclined, (Fig. 21) backward tip-over is more likely,  
and may result in an accident or injury, as seat and/or passenger may contact  
ground before handlebar.  
Conditions that make backward tip-over more likely to occur:  
.
Heavier and or taller passengers (closer to our maximum limits in this manual) make  
backward tip-over more likely.

13. WRIST SAFETY STRAP:  
The wrist safety strap is designed to help prevent the stroller from rolling away should  
you lose your grip on the stroller. When using the stroller make sure the strap is securely  
looped over your wrist.  
WARNING: Always use Wrist Safety Strap. Failure to use the Wrist Safetly Strap  
can result in loss of control, injury and death.  
14. SHOCK ABSORBERS:  
The suspension system features two shock positions to provide a comfortable ride for  
kids of different weights. The two positions are shown in Fig. 2. Position 1 is intended  
for total loads up to 50 lbs. (23 kg; total weight of occupants and cargo), while position  
2 is intended for total loads from 50 to 100 lbs. (23 to 45 kg). The stroller features a  
metal shock bracket with a sliding track and spring loaded shock pin that automatically  
locks in place when it aligns with either of the two shock positions. Shock position  
adjustments should be made with the stroller unloaded. The shocks will lock into position  
1 when unfolding the stroller. To use the stiffer shock position, move the shock from  
position 1 to position 2 by depressing the shock release button (Fig. 2) with one hand.  
With the other hand, lift slightly and pull the shock backward. When the shock pin is  
properly aligned in position 2, the pin will “snap” into place. Repeat this process for the  
second shock. To move the shock from position 2 to position 1, reverse the above  
process for both shocks.

Remove children from stroller. Remove the contents of the Low Boy cargo pouch, seat  
back and seat pockets. Unbuckle AFOD strap (Fig. 16.). Press both the right and left  
handlebar release levers (Fig. 3), and fold the handlebar forward as shown in Fig. 22.  
Locate the frame release handle (red foam) underneath the seat (Fig. 23) and pull  
upwards sharply. This will allow the lower frame to fold together, as shown in Fig. 24.  
The folded stroller can be made even more compact by removing the front and rear  
wheels. The front wheel is removed by opening the front wheel quick release and  
removing the wheel (see section 5). The rear wheels are removed by releasing the  
parking brake (see section 8), and then opening the rear wheel quick release (Fig. 4),  
and pulling each wheel directly to the side.

17. STROLLER CARE & MAINTENANCE:  
The fabric is 100% polyester with a stain resistant treatment that makes cleanup easy.  
Use a sponge with a solution of mild soap and lukewarm water (maximum temperature  
of 100 deg. F / 38 deg. C). Rinse thoroughly with clean water to remove soap then air  
dry. Do not use detergent.  
Regular maintenance should include: Verifying tire pressure, verifying that all screws  
and fasteners are tight, checking that all wheels are securely clamped, checking for any  
tears or excessive wear in the fabric seating which could lead to an accident, and wiping  
parts clean with a rag. To reduce the possibility of squeaks, periodically apply a small  
amount of lubricant (Triflow, 3-in-one, or light sewing machine oil) to the pivot axles and  
interior faces of the pivot brackets, as shown in Fig. 26.  
Fig. 22  
Stroller with handlebar folded.  
STORAGE:  
It is best to store your stroller indoors when it is not in use. This will prolong its attractive  
appearance. Extended exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays can fade and damage the  
fabric, tires, and plastic parts.  
CARGO:  
Pull Up  
Sharply  
The stroller is equipped with four small pockets for the kids, a seatback pocket behind  
each seat and a Low Boy cargo pouch under the stroller. Adding weight to the seatback  
changes the center of gravity of the stroller, and increases the possibility that it will tip  
over backwards. For this reason, loads in the seatback pocket should never exceed  
two pounds (1 kg.). Although the seatback is padded, it is important to remember that  
this is what your child leans against. Never place sharp or injurious objects into the  
seatback pocket. Maximum weight capacity for Low Boy is 10 lbs (4.5 kg).
