Connect the top straps to the carrier by threading through
the top set of cambuckles. Pull the straps through until
the cycle carrier is loosely supported in position.
WARNING: Ensure that the straps are inserted through
the cambuckles in the correct direction.
Position the lower strap chassis hooks to an appropriate
location under the car for example; towing eye, steel
chassis section or bumper support.
Note: It is vital that you use a strong metal location to
secure these chassis hooks. Ensure the webbing straps
do not touch the vehicle exhaust.
Position the side panel hooks on the edges of the
tailgate/boot. Tighten all straps alternately. Check that the
carrier sits firmly in position and there is a minimum
5cm (2 inches) clearance between main carrier frame and
your vehicle. To increase the clearance you may have
to adjust the angles of the support tubes.

Position your cycle(s) into the saddle area of the frame
locator. Pass the webbing strap over the frame of the
cycle and thread through the metal loop. Pull the strap
back tightly and press the hook and loop fastener to
secure.
Note: there must be a minimum 45mm of overlap (See
Diagram). The straps supplied with this product are
suitable for cycle frames up to 40mm in diameter. For
larger frames, longer straps are available as an
accessory.
IMPORTANT: Using the fitted RED webbing straps,
secure the first cycle to the carrier main frame. Failure
to use these straps will result in the cycles falling off the
carrier.

When carrying a second or third cycle, feed the RED
straps around all cycles, and fully tighten. Failure to use
these straps will result in the cycles falling off the carrier.
To reduce obstruction from the handle bars alternate the
direction of each cycle during loading.

The cycle frame locators can be adjusted to best suit the
angle of ladies’, full suspension and children’s etc cycle
frames. A False Crossbar is available as an accessory for
the easy mounting of these differing frame styles.
IMPORTANT:
• Re-tighten all cycle carrier-webbing straps after
loading the cycle(s).
• Do not open your boot/tailgate with the panel hooks
in position.
