MOUNTING THE BIKE CARRIER
The bike carrier comes unassembled. Remove all parts from packaging and
arrange them in a well-organized way. The instructions will clearly describe and
show the parts that you need for each step and how to assemble the bike carrier.
Step 1
Parts:
Mounting:
Use the four bolts (M8x45), washers, lock-
washers and nuts to screw the mounting plate,
base frame and coupler together. The mounting
plate must be mounted on the inside of the base
frame (see picture). Make sure the hole in the
mounting plate is located exactly before the hole
in the base frame to make sure the big hex head
screw will fit through. Be sure the bolts are
inserted "inside out" (nuts and lock-washers must
be at the coupler side!)
Now screw the big hex head screw (M16x90) approximately 1cm into the
coupling. (see picture).
End result:
If you tilt the inner frame (you need to pull out and
rotate the two locking pins, see explanation on page
36), it will be easier to put the mounting plate in its
place and tighten the nuts! Turn the two locking pins
back into the secure position to be sure the inner
frame will not tilt while you are mounting.
