Ilost my instructions for adjusting the direction of the front wheel and I really need directional adjustment.

It sounds like there may be a problem with the front wheel assembly on your Maclaren Quest 2016/2017 model stroller. You may want to try removing the wheels and reattaching them to make sure they are properly seated and aligned. If this does not solve the problem, there may be an issue with the wheel locking mechanism or other parts of the front wheel assembly. It may be best to contact Maclaren customer service for assistance with troubleshooting and potential repair options. As for the safety straps, it's possible that they may need to be adjusted or reattached properly to prevent them from coming apart. The instruction manual for your stroller should have information on how to properly adjust and attach the straps. If you don't have the manual, you can find it online on the Maclaren website or by contacting customer service.

jack the front right up until both wheels are free of the ground
place on jack stands as you have to go under the vehicle and apply some force
loosen of the lh bar and twist it in an anti clockwise direction and install it with this tension ( use stilsons)
now do the rh bar the same but tension it in a clockwise direction
sufficient tension will be when you see the wheel start to lift as you turn the bar with the stilsons ( will require some effort so use a bar on the wrench)
lock them at that point
before attaching the lock plate to the spline end
loosen the adjuster bolt right off
Lower the front to the ground and the car will be close to correct height
levelling the front left to right or raising further is done by the adjusting bolts you loosened off

You are correct. there is an adjustment for the wheels. The front wheels are connected to the steering by tie rods, as in a car. This kind of adjustment is not found in a user manual, but you can do it. Inspect how the wheels are connected and inspect the tie rods. The tie rods have to be disconnected from the wheel and turned in or out depending on which direction the wheel needs to go ,in or out. One tie rod is right hand thread. The other is left hand thread. So the adjustment is making the tie rods shorter or longer. If you do a search on the web ' riding mower tie rod adjustment', you'll find plenty of info.
Good luck

The rods going to each wheel can be adjusted. Remove the link atacked to top wheel and loose nut, screw link in or out to aliegh wheel.

Instructions

Park the vehicle on a level surface and make sure the front wheels are pointing straight ahead. Make sure the vehicle is in park (or in gear if you have manual transmission) and set the parking brake.

Disconnect the pitman arm from the steering box from underneath the front of the vehicle by turning the holding bolt in a counterclockwise direction with an adjustable wrench. Place a pitman arm puller (available at auto parts stores) over the pitman arm and tighten the nut on the puller in a clockwise direction with an adjustable wrench until the pitman arm loosens from the steering box shaft. Remove the pitman arm and the puller.

Open the hood and loosen the lock nut on top of the steering box from the engine compartment with an adjustable wrench in a counterclockwise direction.

Place a torque wrench on the steering shaft and turn the wrench one complete turn. Make sure the torque reading is approximately 2 inch pounds. Tighten the adjusting nut on top of the steering box (it comes out of the center of the lock nut) in a clockwise direction with an adjustable wrench one half turn if the torque wrench reading is too low. Loosen the nut in a counterclockwise direction if the reading is too high.

Rotate the steering shaft with the torque wrench again. Make adjustments to the steering box adjusting nut as described in Step 4, if needed, until the correct reading is obtained on the torque wrench.

Make sure the steering wheel is in the straight ahead position and reattach the pitman arm to the bottom of the steering shaft on the steering box. Tighten the holding nut in a clockwise direction with an adjustable wrench until the pitman arm seats into place.

Tighten the lock nut on top of the steering box with an adjustable wrench in a clockwise direction. Close the hood

You are asking way to much for my typing skills. I really mean get a book that explains the "geometry" of a car or truck front suspension. There are so many different things that come into "play" you really need to read a alignment book to understand what I am trying to say. Try looking up Camber or caster adjustment, this may get you pointed in the right direction. Dan...........

the brake adjuster wheels are closest to the rear brake shoe.as you adjust the adjuster wheel it should rotate in one direction only and the brakes should move outward towards the drum and is stopped when trying to turn the wheel in the opposite direction by the bar that is to stop it from rotating in the wrong direction.

The only manual adjustment for the parking brake on these is at the shoes themselves. Procedure for that is as follows:

1) Place parking brake lever in "full released" position.
2) Raise and support vehicle.
3) Remove plug in parking brake shoe support to access adjuster star-wheel.
NOTE: Through the access hole, rotate the adjuster wheel in the following direction to expand the shoes outward against the drum.
Left brake--Rotate star wheel toward rear of vehicle.
Right brake--Rotate star wheel toward front of vehicle.
4)Using an appropriate tool, turn adjuster star wheel until wheel will not rotate (dead lock).
5) Back off adjuster six detents (teeth).
6) Rotate wheel, checking for light drag. If drag is too heavy, continue to back of adjuster one detent at a time until light drag is present. Do not back off star-wheel more than 17 detents from wheel lock.
7) Install access plug.
8) Adjust opposite wheel parking brake shoes using same method.
9) Lower Vehicle.
10) Apply and release parking brake lever once to ensure proper operation of parking brakes.

block front wheels jack up rear wheels make sure parking brake is off and that the wheel spins freely and waxk it with a big hammer
really just hit the drum top bottom and sides till the rust breaks away
if it breaks away and moves and still wont come off you might need to loosen the adjuster from the slotted hole on the back side

There is a "star wheel" accessed thru a slot on the backside of the "wheel". When you put a brake adjusting tool in that slot moving the tool up turns the wheel in one direction, moving the tool down turns it in the other direction. I don't remember which direction is which but you can tell after once you start turning the star wheel.

The tire needs to be off the ground. Tighten or loosen the brakes until you can freely sping the tire by hand.

A screwdriver can be used to do this, but it's much more difficult than with a brake too.
