6.2 MOUNTING THE BICYCLE RACK ON THE TRAILER TOW BAR

Before you put the bicycle rack on the trailer tow bar, familiarise yourself with the quick locking system.
Ensure that the trailer tow bar is undamaged, clean and free of grease.
Remove the paint from the ball head of the trailer tow bar
The quick locking mechanism is a component with a lever. Activating the lever opens or closes the quick locking mechanism. With the help of the
securing bolt and the padlock, the quick locking system may be locked and secured.
The padlock must always be used as additional security when using the bicycle rack.
Park your vehicle on a level surface.
Switch the motor off and pull on the brake.
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
approximately 35 - 40kg) 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. 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 adjustment
process until the rack is secure and firm.
CAUTION
Always make sure that the lock nut of the adjusting screw is correctly tightened!
CAUTION
Slight signs of pressure on the tow bar ball are normal and do not influence the functionality.
When the rack is firmly seated 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 bicycle to the rack. Also regularly check the
functions of the lighting system of your bicycle rack.

6.3 MOUNTING THE BICYCLE TO THE BICYCLE RACK

Since the frame holders are not tied to any specific position, you may try out a number of positions. It is
important to ensure that the frame holder is fitted as high as possible.
Place the bicycle in the wheel rail. Connect the frame of the bicycle to the U-bracket using the frame
holder.
Secure the wheels with the supplied short tensioning straps. Use one tensioning strap to secure the rear
wheel and two for the front wheel (see picture) to prevent them from turning.
