Park your vehicle on a level surface.
Apply the handbrake.
Remove the securing bolt from the quick locking mechanism and rotate by 90° to prevent it from engaging again. Open the quick locking
mechanism by lifting the lever.
Place the rack, from above, horizontally onto the trailer tow bar. Push the lever of the quick locking mechanism down (force required is approxi-
mately 35 - -40 kg) as far as it will go (the lever will remain in the horizontal position).
Check whether the bike rack is securely and firmly positioned on the trailer tow bar and can no longer be rotated. If this is not the case, the
quick locking mechanism must be readjusted. Lift the lever and remove the rack from the trailer tow bar. Remove the protective cap of the
adjusting screw. Undo the lock nut of the adjusting screw and rotate the adjusting screw on the quick locking mechanism tighter by a quarter
turn. Then tighten the lock nut again.
Replace the rack back on the trailer tow bar and check whether the rack is securely and firmly positioned on the tow bar. Repeat the adjust-
ment process until the rack is secure and firm. Push the protective cap back onto the adjustment screw.
Caution: Always make sure that the lock nut on the adjusting screw is correctly tightened!
Slight signs of pressure on the two bar ball are normal and do not influence the functionality.
When the rack can no longer be rotated on the trailer tow bar, rotate the securing bolt of the quick locking mechanism until it engages. Now
close the quick locking mechanism with the supplied padlock and remove the key from the lock. Store the key carefully and in a safe place. The
bicycle rack is now secured to prevent theft.
Regularly check the firm seating of the rack on the trailer tow bar as well as the attachment of the bicycles to the rack. Also regularly check the
functions of the lighting system of your bicycle rack.
Mounting the bicycles to the rack
4 x Tensioning strap, short
The first bicycle is placed in the first wheel rail (closest to the vehicle) and secured to the
U-bracket with the short frame holder. To do this, use the side of the frame holder with
the tensioning strap to secure to the bicycle frame. The wheels are secured by placing the
tensioning straps around the wheel rim of your bicycle and tightening the straps. Caution:
The front wheel must also be secured to prevent it from turning using an additional small
tensioning strap. To do this, secure the front wheel to the rail again at a different position
(see picture).
The second bicycle is usually placed in the second rail, facing the opposite direction to the
first and secured to the U-bracket with the long frame holder. The wheels are secured in
the same way as for the first bicycle. The third bicycle is placed in the third rail and secured with the long frame holder to the U-shaped bar. The
fourth bicycle is secured in the fourth rail. With the wheel-to-wheel frame holder connect the frame of
the fourth bicycle with that of the third.
The bicycle wheels are secured in the same way as those of the first bicycle. It may be
necessary to use a different method than the one described to secure the bicycles indivi-
dually on the rack to ensure that the frame holders may be correctly secured. Now secure
the bicycles with the long safety strap. Wrap the safety strap through the bicycle frames
and the U-shaped bar and tighten.
The bicycle rack may not be used without this safety strap.
