RackSack ™ Instructions
The WeatherTech® RackSack™ is a soft-sided
luggage carrier designed to accommodate enough
luggage for a weekend getaway or last minute trip.
It is designed to install quickly and easily by
attaching to your vehicle’s existing luggage rack.
As this carrier is intended as a supplemental
cargo hold for increased carrying space, it will not
increase the vehicle load carrying capacity nor
should you ever exceed the load carrying capacity
of your vehicle’s luggage rack. The RackSack™
is manufactured from a rugged, water-repellent
1800 denier woven polyester material featuring PVC coating and electronic seam welding, but it is not
waterproof! For travel in severe weather, valuables may require additional protection such as a plastic
bag.
1. Remove the RackSack™ from the carton and spread it out between the front and rear horizontal
bars of your luggage rack (if so equipped) with the soft-fleece bottom against the surface of the
vehicle. Minor adjustment of the horizontal bars may be necessary (please refer to your vehicle’s
owners manual).
IMPORTANT: For greater water repellency, and ease of loading, the zippered end of the bag must be toward the rear of the
vehicle.
2. Pack your luggage into the RackSack™, loading heavier items first. This will ensure that weight is
distributed evenly and low in the carrier.
3. Wrap the longer mounting strap around the underside of the horizontal bar of the luggage rack and
attach it to the oversize Delrin™ connectors on top of the bag. If your vehicle is not equipped with
front and rear horizontal bars, the attachment straps can pivot to the sides for attachment to the
side rails. However, please to attach the straps in a manner that will not allow the RackSack™ to
slide on the roof of the vehicle during acceleration or deceleration.
4. Once all four straps are connected, cinch up the straps evenly to secure the load. Any excess strap
material may then be secured by using the “Roll and Wrap™” system. Simply roll the “T” shaped
end of the strap toward the connector and fold the Velcro® tabs around the strap to secure it.
IMPORTANT: Please inspect and re-tighten all straps after a few miles of travel as well as
periodically during your trip, as your cargo is likely to shift.
