Important Notes:
• T his bicycle rack has been designed to carry 1 or 2 bikes.
• T his rack is designed for typical use and applications (on paved or smooth gravel roads). Do not
use this rack on a vehicle that will be driven on rough roads or where the rack (and bikes) will be
subject to significant or constant jarring and/or shock, or any vehicle with very stiff springs that
will transfer the load shock directly to the rack and bikes.
• P roper fitting and installation of this carrier to your specific vehicle is critical, and is not the
manufacturer's responsibility.
• I mproper use of this product may result in damage to your rack, your vehicle, your bicycles,
or even other vehicles driving behind you (as a result of colliding with or trying to avoid fallen
bicycles and/or the rack).
• T he purchaser should be aware that the load created by a rack and bicycles can exceed the
maximum rating on the hitch or bumper.
• S wagman Racks are powder coated to help prevent rust. When leaving them outside for
extended periods of time the finish will lose its luster. It is recommended that when not in use it
is stored indoors.
• T ake care to add padding on any area of the bikes that touches another bike or any part of the
vehicle. Damage can and will happen (to your bikes and/or to the vehicle) if care is not taken
during the loading and transporting of your bikes, and padding used where necessary.
• B icycle tires should be kept at least 6" away from the exhaust pipes of the vehicle. The high
temperature exhaust exiting from the exhaust pipes is hot enough to melt or damage tires. The
bike rack should also be kept away from the direct exhaust flow. Also check when the bike rack is
folded up.
• B ikes fitted with large accessories (such as a child carrying seat) will greatly increase the wind
resistance and therefore the pressure on the rack and all vehicle mounting points. Reducing
vehicle speed will reduce the chance of any problems occurring because of this situation.
• A fter reading this manual, should you have any additional questions regarding the compatibility,
fitting, and/or use of this rack, please call your nearest Swagman authorized retail dealer or
Swagman Customer Service.
