Tilt

–Down Feature:

For easy access to the rear
cargo door of your vehicle,
the Sport Rider can be tilted
down: First fold down vertical
Post as described in “Fold-up
feature”. Next refer to fig. 1a:
Remove pins H5 then H6
from receiver tube bracket
and gently lower the main
beam down so it is resting on
the welded stop.

Step 6: Installing bikes on the rack

The bikes should be mounted from inside (1

bike) to

the outer most bike (3

or 4

bike). See Fig. 6a.

The bikes should always be positioned so that the
lowest point on the bike frame’s top tube is close to the
vertical post (Fig. 6b).

The bike handlebars should be staggered (first bike’s
handlebars on passenger side, second bike’s handlebars
on driver side, etc.

1. Lower both vertical posts as described earlier.

2. To adjust the bike’s wheels trays, loosen the knobs and
slide wheel holders along the wheel support tube so that
they are positioned directly beneath each wheel.
Try to adjust the position of the wheel trays so that the hook
will rest on the bike’s lowest point of the top tube (Fig. 6b)
Tighten knobs securely. Rotate the bike’s pedals so that
the vertical post can be raised and secured. Slide the hook
down onto the frame. Use the Velcro strap on the wheel
holder per Fig. 17d.

3. Adjust the wheel holders of the second bike and mount
to the rack in the same procedure as described above.

4. Raise and secure the outer vertical post for the 3

or 4

bike.

. Be sure that the hooks are well supported on the bike’s

frame and the knobs securely pushing down on the bike’s
frame.

Tips

for carrying woman’s bikes and bikes with slanted top

tubes: Adjust the wheel trays so that the hook will rest in
the bike frame’s top tube and seat tube.

A keyed trailer hitch pin and security cable is included to
help prevent theft of rack and bikes.
