11 Maintenance and replacement
With normal use the bicycle carrier is maintenance-free. It is however
recommended to clean the bicycle carrier and keep it in a dry space.
Cleaning the bicycle carrier requires extra attention in the winter when grit
remains can corrode hinging parts. This can for example mean folding the
wings in and out becomes stiffer and the lock can rust up. So always rinse the
bicycle carrier after use in the winter and store the bicycle carrier dry.
Defective parts must be replaced for safety reasons.

dealer.
11 Adjustment on a tow bar
It is important that the bicycle carrier is and remains upright on the tow bar.
Your bicycle carrier is set by default for a tow bar with a neck thickness of 28
mm and a tow ball measuring 50 mm. It may be the case that the diameter
of the tow ball, the thickness of the tow bar neck or the angle of the tow bar
neck are different. This can mean the bicycle carrier is less stable or out of
square on the tow bar. The steps below allow you to check if your carrier is
correctly assembled.
If the bicycle carrier is not mounted stable enough, adjust the installation with
help of the installation manual which you can download at
www.xlc-azura.nl or contact you dealer.
