MOUNTING THE BIKE CARRIER

The bike carrier comes unassembled. Remove all parts from packaging and

arrange them in a well-organized way. The instructions will clearly describe and

show the parts that you need for each step and how to assemble the bike carrier.

Step 1

Parts:

Mounting:

Put the six wheel holders on the base frame of the bike carrier with the holes

right above the holes in the base frame. Then attach the wheel holders with the

twelve bolts M6x50, washers M6 and M6 nuts.

Mount the two lamp holders together. This is done by

means of a small piece of iron connection that is

already pre-mounted on one side. Slide the rails

“together” and fix it by the supplied screw (M5x12)

and washers.

Mount the lamp holder rail at the bottom of

the base frame with the two M5x35 bolts and

washers.

Make sure that the rear fog lamp is mounted on the left side of the bike carrier!

End result:

Step 2

Parts

Mounting:

Slide the U-frame against the outside of the U-frame holders of the

base frame. Secure this U-frame with the supplied carriage bolts

(M8x60), washers and plastic rotary knobs.

Make sure the plastic rotary knobs are on the inside (see picture).

Please note: firmly tighten both rotary knobs so that the U-frame

will come on its place well.

Unscrew the plastic rotary knob of each frame

holder, so the clamps can be folded open. First

attach the rubber ring around the U-frame and

put the clamp around it. Subsequently, re-attach

the holder and screw the plastic rotary knob until

you can just turn the frame holders (the frames

of the bikes have to be attached to it, so they

have to be movable). The sides with the straps

are intended to fasten the bike.

End result:

Step 3

Parts:

Mounting:

Loosen and remove the little screws intended for the mounting of the number

plate holder from the light holder rail and fasten the number plate holder to the

rail. The number plate holder has to be level with the lighting.

With the cable ties supplied with the carrier, the light cable can be fastened

neatly at the bottom of the carrier. Make sure the cable will not interfere with the

tilting mechanism.

Slide the nine short, black straps through the little slots

in the wheel holder, starting inside-out, going around

the wheel holder and then outside-in (see picture).

Finally clip the three plastic covers over the middle of

the three wheel holders.

End result:

MOUNTING OF THE BIKE CARRIER ONTO THE HITCH BALL

The first step is to become familiar with the quick connector.

The quick connector consists of a case mounted to the bike carrier and a lever.

Using the lever, you can close and open the quick connector.

When mounting the bike carrier to the car, it is best that the car is parked

straight, the engine is turned off and the parking brake is activated. Make sure

that the tow ball is undamaged, clean and not greasy!

Release the locking/safety pin by pulling it out and rotating it by a quarter turn.

Release the quick connector by moving the handle in the vertical position.

Position the bike carrier on the tow bal from the top. Press the handle of the

quick connector downwards (approx. 35-40kg) until it stops (handle will stay

stable in the horizontal position). Turn the locking/safety pin until it is secured

(and the handle can no longer be pulled up).

Now test if the carrier is attached steady enough on the tow ball (and not easy to

twist). If not, you have to adjust the quick connector. If it is not tight enough,

take the carrier off again and screw in the adjustment screw of the quick coupler

Locking nut

Adjustment screw

a little bit further. Loosen locking nut first, screw in adjustment screw and

tighten locking nut again.

Check again if the carrier is properly secured to the

tow ball (and cannot rotate easily). Repeat this until

the carrier is properly secured.

Caution: Always make sure that the locking nut

of the adjustment bolt is tightened again!

When the bike carrier is not easy to turn anymore, the

quick connector can be locked. Lock the quick

connector with the locking/safety pin and the padlock

and take the key out. Keep it carefully on a safe place.

The bike carrier is now also protected against theft.

Always check if the quick connector is well secured with the

locking/safety pin and the padlock!
