!

Be sure to put the rectangle projection evenly and into the hole level. If it is not completely 

level, the clamp may be damaged and it will become difficult to screw the Clamp Connecting 

Bolt into the thread hold on the Clamp Body.

The clamp body is made of soft light alloy material and this part cannot be repaired. You 

must replace it at your own expense if damaged.

!

A thread has a unique physical mechanism that you can screw the bolt in the slightly slanted 

angle.

The bolt will stop turning after 2-3 rotations so do not force the bolt any further or you could 

cause damage to the stand.

You must confirm first that you can rotate the bolt at least 3 rotations smoothly without using 

any tool. After that, you can use tool for tightening more.

2

Screw the M6x20 cap bolt in the parts pack to the Clamp body through the center hole on the Arm Bar. Tighten the bolt 

firmly by 5mm hex wrench.

!

After installation of the Cradle Cap, you will tighten or loosen the bolts through the hole on 

the cap.

When you need to remove the cradle from the clamp body, you should not keep pushing 

the cradle forward. The cap will lift up naturally while loosening the bolt. Otherwise, the bolt 

head may push and remove the cradle cap.

Install the rectangle projection part of the Clamp Body into the rectangle hole on the Base Plate. (Fig. T)

3

Install the Hooks to both ends of the Arm Bar.

The hook is position and angle adjustable in order to fit your bike frame size and design as perfectly as possible.

Required Tool: 5mm Hex Wrench

How To Install Bike Cradle

4

Install the Cradle Cap to the Base Plate.

You should attach the cap bottom first, then push the top for better installation. Failure to do so may cause the cap 

breakage problem.
