5. PLACING YOUR CYCLE ON YOUR CARRIER
When placing the cycles (
max. of 3
) onto the carrier support arms, place
them in opposite directions. Avoid positioning them directly next to the
vehicle exhaust.
Position the cross bar of each cycle into a pair of easy-fit cradles on the
cycle support arms

.
Secure cycles to the cradles using the rubber cycle securing straps
provided, these can be pulled down over the cross bar and clipped onto
the cradles. (

).
Using suitable ties or straps (not provided), ensure that cycle steering,
wheels and pedals are secured and will not come into contact with the
vehicle bodywork.
After placing the cycles on the carrier, re-tension all of the straps and tie
off the surplus lengths of strap at the base of the buckles for extra
security and to prevent the loose ends flapping.
Remember: The driver of the vehicle is responsible for the security and
safety of the load carried, check frequently during your journey.
