MAINTAINING YOUR STEADYRACK
To ensure your Steadyrack bike rack operates perfectly we recommend you perform the following basic maintenance and checks:
• Check and adjust tension on the nuts on Central Pivot Bar
The nuts that attach the central pivot bar to the top and bottom mounting brackets are pre-tensioned in the factory to a torque setting
of 5nm. This is to ensure there is enough resistance when you push your bike into the rack to stop the arms swinging out of the way.
Remove the two clip-in end caps which cover the mounting brackets using a 13mm socket wrench or a suitable spanner. Adjust the nuts
connecting the central spine to the top and bottom mounting brackets to the desired tension. Be sure to not overtighten or the rack
won’t pivot. Replace your end caps and you are good to go.
• Check the nuts attaching the top and bottom arms to the Central Pivot Bar
The 2 arms are connected to the central pivot bar by bolts with dome nuts and black tips either side. These can work loose over time.
Check them periodically and tighten.
• Check your mounting bolts from time to time to make sure they haven’t worked loose and tighten if necessary.
Cleaning
Ensure the rack remains free from dirt and debris and clean by dusting or using a dry cloth from time to time.
