(1) Before offering the carrier to your vehicle ensure the rear
window/bodywork and rubber feet on the vehicle support arm are
clean and free of dust. (2) For most vehicles it will be necessary to
pre-bend the plain flat section of the metal straps. (3) Offer the carrier
to the vehicle and hook the metal straps over the top edge of the
tailgate of your vehicle. Ensure that the rubber protective sleeves are
positioned to avoid any abrasion of the metal straps on the paintwork
of the vehicle.
Hook the feet under the bottom of your tailgate. In some cases it
may be necessary to slightly open the tailgate to enable the feet to
hook on.
Ensure that both carrier clamping levers are in the closed position.
Progressively tighten the levers on both sides of the carrier by turning
them clockwise. When the resistance to turning starts to increase
check the security of the carrier. Continue gradually tightening both
levers until the carrier is firmly fixed in all directions.

Reposition the cycle support arm so it is positioned slightly above
horizontal.
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). If
the straps supplied with this product are not suitable, longer straps
are available as an accessory. Please contact your nearest Halfords
store.
IMPORTANT: Use the red webbing straps to secure the cycle frame
to the carrier. 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 frames, and fully tighten. Failure to use these straps will result
in the cycles falling off the carrier. To reduce obstruction from the
handlebars, alternate the direction of each cycle during loading.

CAUTION: After the cycles are securely located on the carrier it is important to re-
check the security of the carrier. If required, the clamping levers should be further
tightened until the carrier is firmly fixed in all directions.
