Fitting the Bikes on the Bike Carrier
Figure 6
Safety Belt
The first bike is to be placed centrally in the bike rail (nearest to the vehicle) and fixed to the U-bolt
with the short frame holder. Fix the running wheels with the plastic strap provided. See figure 6.
Start by screwing the frame holders onto the U-bolt. To do this, first unscrew the lockable finger
nuts from the frame holders and remove the fixing clip with the spring. The distance tube must also
be removed. Take the U–bolt clip from the threaded rod and place it around the U-bolt. Finally, refit
the frame holder in the inverse order.
The second bike is normally to be placed in the second rail in the opposite direction and fixed to
the U-bolt with the long frame holder. To fix the label, first press out the fixing wedge.
Fix the running wheels as described for the first wheel. It may be necessary to place the bikes indi-
vidually on the rear carrier, rather than as described, so the frame holders can be fixed correctly.
Now secure the bikes using the long safety belt. For additional safety, run the safety belt through
the bike frame and around the U-bolt and tighten firmly.
Attention:
Never use the carrier without the safety strap when loaded!
Loose the security device from the tilt lever. Hold the U-bolt with one hand that the carrier cannot
tilt abruptly and use the lever of tilt mechanism. Now lower the carrier carefully. The supporting
frame snaps back into operating position when lifted. Afterwards secure the lever with this addi-
tional protection.
