STEP 1: Fitting End Support to Cross Bar
A. Fully release locking jaws on each End Support prior to
assembly (fig 1b). Locking mechanism will resist turning
when locking jaws are fully released. DO NOT
OVERTURN.
B. Insert end supports into cross bar (Fig 1c). Note: In
order to allow movement of the end support while in
the cross bar the locking jaw should be pushed inward
(Fig 1b. Inset).
C. Fit cross bar locking cap into cross bar and turn the
locking device in the front face of the end cap to fasten
(Fig 1c). Compress the buffer strip inwards along the
cross bar while replacing the end cap.
D. To fit the cross bars to the vehicle side rails rotate the
locking jaw of each support inwards so as to allow the
cross bar assembly to fit over the vehicle side rails (Fig
1c. Inset).
STEP 2: Placement of the Cross Bars to
Vehicle Side Rails
A. Adjust the end supports to the approximate width of the
vehicles side rails. Now the cross bars may be lowered
onto the vehicle's side rails.
B. Push the end supports up against the vehicle side rails
(Fig 2b & 2b inset) making sure the cross bar has equal
overhang past the end supports (measure the distance
of the end of the cross bar to the end support on either
side of the vehicle and adjust until equal (Fig 2c.)
