Roof Rack

Pad Mount with Optional "Pass Thru/Stanchion Fit" Hardware

Fiber

glass or Composite Material Roof Installation

W
ARNING:

Do not use sheet metal screws to attach roof racks to fiberglass or composite material roofs!

External roof racks do not increase the GVWR of the vehicle.

Maximum load for this rack is 180 lbs. evenly distributed on crossbar assemblies. Keep in mind that torque applied to any straps, cords, etc. between the load and the vehicle

body ef

fectively add "load weight" to crossbars and the roof. Lar

ge or flat items such as plywood or watercraft can trap air and create wind lift. Secure the ends of such objects

directly to the vehicle bumpers or tie downs. Bulky or tall loads can create tremendous horizontal wind resistance from headwinds and crosswinds. Extreme caution should

be used when transporting such loads, taking into consideration road conditions, vehicle speed, crosswinds, load securing methods, etc. Lar

ge, bulky

, tall or flat objects should

be properly secured to both crossbars and other attachment points on the vehicle body

ANT NOTE:

For roofs exceeding 1 in thickness, substitute proportionately longer stainless machine screws for the 1 screws furnished. For installation on roofs

without a sandwiched core (corrugated, honeycomb, etc.), for mounting outside the core area, or mounting in any fiber

glass roof less than ½

thick, substitute #10-24 lock nuts and 1/4 Stainless Steel flat washers for propeller tee nuts (see illustration below).

PRE-ASSEMBL

: Prior to assembling rack, measure the size of the core area of the roof.

If mounting inside the core area, stanchions should be positioned so that

mounting hardware penetrates the core a minimum of 1 in from edges

of core. If mounting outside the core area, position so that mounting

hardware penetrates a minimum of 1 outside edges of core.

This "Pass-Thru/Stanchion-Fit" model pr

ovides the choice of two configurations of the stanchions and cr

ossbars at the time of installation.

Option 1

. Pass-Through Crossbars: Extend the crossbars through the stanchions:

Option 2

. Stanchion-fit Crossbars: Cut the crossbars to the appropriate length to provide exact fit

between the stanchions:
