The correct attachment of this product is critical and
beyond the control of Rightline Gear. The safe use
and long life of this product depends entirely on
your good judgment and following these directions.
Pack The Carrier
WARNING: DAMAGE MAY OCCUR TO THE CARRIER
IF EXCESS MATERIAL FLAPS IN THE WIND.
TO ELIMINATE EXCESS MATERIAL, PACK THE CARRI-
ER FULL. IF UNABLE TO PACK FULL, FILL THE FRONT
CORNERS OF THE CARRIER AND PULL THE EXCESS
MATERIAL DOWN OVER THE SIDES. HOLD THE EX-
CESS MATERIAL SECURELY IN PLACE WITH THE CAR-
RIER'S STRAPS.
1-Clean the vehicle's roof of all dirt and debris.
2-Unzip the carrier and place it on top of the vehicle with
its non-zippered end facing front.
3-Load your gear within the shape of the carrier (Fig 1).
Place sharp edged items in the middle and softer items
around them.
4-Close the zipper as you fill the carrier from the front to
the rear.
5-Fold the protective flap down to secure the hook-&-loop
closures (Fig 1 and Fig 2). Make sure the hook-&-loop clo-
sures on the zipper flap completely overlap those on the
carrier. If it is difficult to secure the closures, the carrier is
over packed.

connect to the side buckles (Fig 4). If cross bars, the straps
will connect to the front and rear buckles (Fig 4).

3-Attach each strap by wrapping it around the rack,
threading its end through its loop, and pulling tight (Fig 5).
4-Thread the straps up through slot A and down through
slot B of the buckles (Fig 6) and tighten the straps evenly.
5-Tie off the strap ends so they don't flap in the wind (Fig
7). Make sure to re-tighten the straps after a few miles
and check them regularly throughout the trip.
