• The hook arm V-notch must be firmly seated against the tire and the bike frame. Each time the rack is loaded, the bike
should be shaken to insure positive hook seating. If the shake test feels at all loose, pull the ratchet grip to the next tooth
and re-shake to test. Failure to seat the hook arm securely may result in bike instability. Damage to the rack, bike or
vehicle may result.
• The bicycle must be properly assembled and ready-to-ride to be safely carried.
• The bicycle tires must be properly inflated. Loss of air after the ratchet has been set may result in bike instability. Damage
to the rack, bike or vehicle may result.
• Use this rack only with bicycle tires having a tread width of 3.0” or less.
