secure the front wheel to the rail again at a different position (see
picture).
The second bicycle is usually placed in the second rail, facing the
opposite direction to the first and secured to the U-bracket with the
long frame holder. The wheels are secured in the same way as for
the first bicycle. The third bicycle is placed in the third rail and
secured with the long frame holder to the U-shaped bar. The fourth
bicycle is secured in the fourth rail. With the wheel-to-wheel frame
holder connect the frame of
the fourth bicycle with that of the third.
The bicycle wheels are secured in the same
way as those of the first bicycle. It may be necessary to use a
different method
than the one described to secure the bicycles individually on the rack to ensure that the frame holders may
be correctly secured. Now secure the bicycles with the long safety strap. Wrap the safety strap through the
bicycle frames and the U-shaped bar and tighten.
The bicycle rack may not be used without this safety strap.
Using the tension-relief strap
These instructions describe the use with estates and compact vehicles with
a hatchback (rear door). With boots (saloons) proceed appropriately.
Before mounting the tension-relief strap, remove dust and dirt from the upper
region of the rear door in order to prevent scratching and abrasion when
travelling with the tow-bar rack.
Open the rear door of your vehicle. Guide the free end of the strap from the
inside to the outside between the rear door and the edge of the roof. Leave
approximately 20 cm free between the strap anchor and the edge of the roof.
Carefully close the rear door. Make sure that the strap lies flat and straight
between the seals. Now slowly pull the strap until the strap anchor meets the
panel of the roof liner and the rear door.
Make sure that any roof edge spoilers are not damaged and that the functionality of the
tension-relief strap is not influenced by such spoilers.
Now attach the lock section of the strap to the U-bar as shown on Figures 1 to 4.
