B.0 Loading
B.1
The maximum load specifed in the assembly instructions is not to be
exceeded. However, this limit is always subordinate to the maximum load
recommended by the manufacturer of the car itself. It is always the lower
maximum recommended load that applies. Max. roof load = load carrier
weight + any ftted carrier accessories + the weight of the load itself.
B.2 The load may not signifcantly exceed the load carrier's width, and it
should always be spread evenly across the load carrier and with the
lowest possible centre of gravity.
B.3 When several surfboards are being carried, they should not be placed
beside each other but instead one on top of the other.
