4.1 | Intended use
The top box is designed for fixed installation on metal tube luggage racks on
motorcycles or scooters and can carry luggage with a maximum weight of 3 kg.
Since this top box is a product for universal use, i.e. is not designed for a specific
vehicle, it is important to make sure that the top box can be used properly on
the vehicle without problems before using it for the first time. In the process
it is imperative that you adhere to the specifications in the vehicle operating
instructions and the vehicle manufacturer's specifications. This is essential, as
improper use of this product or its unsuitability for a vehicle could impair the
safety of the vehicle and/or damage it.
4.2 | Safety instructions
WARNING!
Risk of accident!
• The top box must only be installed on a suitable fastening
base which can withstand all the forces to which it is
exposed. For this purpose, a luggage rack/top box rack
made of steel tubing, fastened permanently and securely to
the vehicle, with a minimum load capacity of 5 kg should be
used. If using luggage racks made of other materials, e.g.
aluminium, you must check whether the installation clamps
of the top box base plate can be attached to it properly.
Particular care must be taken with racks made of cast
aluminium as this material is susceptible to breakage in case
of isolated pressure loads.
• Lighting equipment must not under any circumstances be
covered by the saito top box.
• The top box can carry a maximum load of 3 kg. The maximum
load-bearing capacity of the vehicle as specified by the
vehicle manufacturer must also never be exceeded. It
comprises the weight of the rider, passenger, accessories and
luggage.
• Combustible or explosive materials, such as fuel or gas
canisters for example, must not be transported in the top box.
