Important Notes:
• This bike rack has been designed to carry 1 or 2 bikes not
exceeding 35 lbs per bike. Do not combine total weight for
one bike.
• This rack is designed for typical use and applications (on
paved or smooth gravel roads). Do not use this rack on a
vehicle that will be driven on rough roads or where the rack
(and bikes) will be subject to significant or constant jarring
and/or shock, or any vehicle with very stiff springs that will
transfer the load shock directly to the rack and bikes.
• Proper fitting and installation of this carrier to your specific
vehicle is critical, and is not the manufacturer’s responsibility.
• Improper use of this product may result in damage to your rack,
your vehicle, your bicycles, or even other vehicles driving behind
you (as a result of colliding with or trying to avoid fallen bicycles
and/or the rack).
• The purchaser should be aware that the load created by a rack
and bicycles can exceed the maximum rating on the hitch or
bumper.
• Swagman Racks are powder coated to help prevent rust. When
leaving them outside for extended periods of time the finish
will lose its luster. It is recommended that when not in use it is
stored indoors.
• Take care to add padding on any area of the bikes that touches
another bike or any part of the vehicle. Damage can and will
happen (to your bikes and/or to the vehicle) if care is not taken
during the loading and transporting of your bikes, and padding
used where necessary.
• Bicycle tires, rims etc. should be kept at least 6” away from
vehicle exhaust pipes. The bikes and/or bike rack should totally
kept away from direct exhaust flow. The high temperatures of
the exhaust is enough to melt tires and damage the finish on
the bike for bike rack.
• Bikes fitted with large accessories (such as a child carrying
seat) will greatly increase the wind resistance and therefore the
pressure on the rack and all vehicle mounting points. Reducing
vehicle speed will reduce the chance of any problems occurring
because of this situation.
• After reading this manual, should you have any additional
questions regarding the compatibility, fitting, and/or use of
this rack, please call your nearest Swagman authorized retail
dealer or Swagman Customer Service.
Mounting the bike rack on a Trailer or 5th Wheel:
Purchaser is advised that the load created by rack and bicycles
will exceed the strength of trailer or 5th wheel bumper, mounting
location or the bike rack. The rack is not under warranty if mounted
in this location.
