Bike Installation
:
1. Pull the lever on the bottom of the upright ratchet arm and
fold down. This allows you to easily put the inside bike onto
the rack. The taller bike should go on the inside location.
NOTE: You may have to tilt the bike towards the vehicle to
make it easier to fold the ratchet bar upright.
2. Raise hooks on vertical post to the top. Place inner bike on rack
with post folded down. Raise post and lower hook onto bike
while you make the of the adjustments.
3. Adjust the trays to the wheels of the bike so that they are all
the way in the tray. Once these are adjusted tighten the knobs
on the tray so that they are secure and cannot slide. Attach the
strap to secure the wheel into the wheel tray.
4. Fold the upright bar back into the upright position.
You should hear a click to indicate the cam is engaged.
5. Push the longer hook down onto the bike. Press the release
button on the hook to slide it more easily into place. Release
the button when the hook is securely holding the bike.
Releasing the button locks the hook in place and prevents it
from any upward movement while in transit. Ensure the hook
arm is fully locked into the notches on the upright ratchet arm.
IMPORTANT: You should always ensure that the hook
is located in the lowest position on the top tube. It is
usually at the connection point of the top tube and
the seat tube (diagram 7).
6. Install the outside bike in the same manner using the short hook.
7. After complete installation check all pins and tighten knobs
to ensure they are all tight and that the bikes are motionless
in the rack.
IMPORTANT: You have to ensure that all of the
wheel straps are attached and secure.
8. To lock your bikes rotate the key in the ratchet hook so the
button cannot be depressed (diagram 8). NOTE: Never leave
your bikes unattended for any length of time. Locks are meant
as a deterrent and won’t prevent bike theft. Record your
key number.
9. When the rack is not in use the main ratchet arm can be folded
down and the complete rack can be folded up against the
vehicle. Ensure that the pin is inserted before driving.
