5.2 MOUNTING THE BICYCLE CARRIER TO THE TRAILER TOW BAR

Ensure that the trailer tow bar is undamaged, clean and
free of grease.
The bicycle rack is placed horizontally on the tow bar from above.
Screw the bicycle rack using the screw M16 lightly into place, and align
parallel to the rear of the vehicle. Now tighten the screw in such a way to
ensure that the rack is securely attached and can no longer be moved on the
trailer tow bar. Evidence of pressure on the ball head are normal and do not
represent a fault nor will they aff ect the function of the tow bar.
Regularly check the fi rm 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.

5.3 MOUNTING THE BICYCLES TO THE RACK

The fi rst bicycle is placed in the fi rst 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 pushing the wheel stopper up
to the wheel, 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 a small tensioning strap. To do this,
secure the front wheel to the rail again at a diff erent
position.
The second bicycle is usually placed in the second rail, facing the opposite
direction to the fi rst and secured to the U-bracket with the long frame hol-
der. The wheels are secured in the same way as for the fi rst bicycle. It may be
necessary to off set the individual bicycles diff erently 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.

5.4 FOLDING OUT THE BICYCLE RACK

If you wish to operate the folding mechanism, always hold the
U-bracket with one hand to ensure that the rack is not able to
fold out suddenly. (Risk of injury)
The folding mechanism is secured by a securing bolt on the left inside of
the rack frame and an operating lever in the middle of the frame. First pull
the securing bolt on the left out as far as it will go and rotate slightly to
make sure it does not engage again. Now rotate the handle of the operating
lever as far as it will go to the right and pull the lever back towards you. The
rack can now be carefully folded out. By lifting the carrier and locking the
operating lever, you bring the rack back into the transportation position.
The securing bolt on the left side must be securely engaged to
ensure a safe hold.
CAUTION: The opening on the carrier enables you to see
whether the carrier has been correctly locked into place.
