Alu Star bicycle rack bracket
Fit the clamp arch to the threaded bolts of the U-shaped bracket. Make sure that the lateral metal
edges of the clamp arch are facing downwards. Now fit the washers and knob nuts to the threads of the
U-shaped bracket. Tighten the nuts gently.
Now feed one U-shaped bracket, from below, through the drilled holes of the base plate. Fit the
washers and knob nuts to the threads of the U-shaped bracket. Tighten the nuts gently. Do the
same on the other side.
Align the bicycle rack bracket parallel to the vehicle axis. Pay attention to ensure that no parts
of the bicycle will protrude beyond the vehicle body when the bicycle is subsequently mounted.
Now tighten up all screws and nuts.
Insert the strap guide into the T-groove at the end (the longer part, seen from the base plate) of
the wheel rail where the bicycles rear wheel will later be attached. At the other end (the shorter
part, seen from the base plate), position the two other strap guides for securing the front wheel.
Fit the end caps onto the ends of the wheel rail.
6. MOUNTING THE BICYCLE TO THE BICYCLE RACK BRACKET
Caution!
You may need a second person to assist you in loading the bicycle rack bracket.
Open the frame holder of the holding bracket by turning the knob nut anti-clockwise. Fold the holding bracket down and rest on the
wheel rail. Position the bicycle on the wheel rail, with the front wheel on the side of the base plate of the holding bracket. Slide the
bicycle backwards into the wheel rail until it is possible to stand the holding bracket up in front of the bicycle frame. Set the inclination
of the holding bracket so that it forms a right angle with the bicycle frame. Now slide the bicycle forwards until the frame is in the
frame holder of the holding bracket. Close the frame holder by rotating the knob nut clockwise. Make sure that the tube of the bicycle
frame is securely encompassed by the holding bracket of the frame holder. Fold the pivoting threaded rod with the lockable knob nut
into the fork opening of the holding bracket. Tighten the knob nuts.
You can only lock the lockable knob nut when it is firmly tightened. Turn the key to the red marking on the lock symbol and remove
the key. Your bicycle is now secured to prevent theft.
The wheels are secured by placing the tensioning straps through the eye of the strap guide, around the wheel rail and the rim of your
bicycle and tightening the straps.
Caution!
The front wheel must be secured using two small tensioning straps to prevent it from turning.
When travelling with the bicycle rack bracket empty, secure the holding bracket to the wheel rail using a tensioning strap.
