5.1.7 INSERTING THE LICENSE PLATE

The mounting clips for securing the license plate are push-out parts in the holder.
Break out two of the clips. Slide the license plate into the holder, then push the
clips into the cut-outs to secure the license plate.

5.1.8 LAYING ELECTRICAL CABLES

Lay the cables along the tube of the base frame. The cables may not be bent, stretched or crushed, e.g. in the vicinity of the folding
mechanism. Secure the cables with the supplied cable ties. When you are fi nished, trim any excess material from the cable ties using
cutting pliers.

5.1.9 ATTACHING THE PLASTIC COVERS

5.1.10 MOUNTING THE SHORT TENSIONING STRAPS

Insert the short tensioning strap from the inside to the outside below the bike holder and then from the outside to the inside
through the slots of the bike holder (see picture).

5.2 MOUNTING THE BICYCLE RACK ON THE TRAILER TOW BAR

Ensure that the trailer tow bar is undamaged, clean and free of grease.
Before you put the bicycle rack on the trailer tow bar, familiarise
yourself with the quick locking system.
The quick locking mechanism is a component with a lever. Activating the lever opens or closes the quick locking mechanism. With the help of the securing bolt
and the padlock, the quick locking system may be locked and secured.
The padlock must always be used as additional security when using the bicycle rack.
Park your vehicle on a level surface. Apply the handbrake. Remove the securing bolt from the quick locking mechanism and rotate by 90° to prevent it from
engaging again. Open the quick locking mechanism by lifting the lever.
Place the rack, from above, horizontally onto the trailer tow bar. Push the lever of the quick locking mechanism down (force required is approx. 35 - 40 kg) as far
as it will go (the lever will remain in the horizontal position).
Check whether the bike rack is securely and fi rmly positioned on the trailer tow bar and can no longer be rotated. If this is not the case, the quick locking mecha-
nism must be readjusted. Lift the lever and remove the rack from the trailer tow bar. Remove the protective cap of the adjusting screw. Undo the lock nut of the
adjusting screw and rotate the adjusting screw on the quick locking mechanism tighter by a quarter turn. Then tighten the lock nut again.
Replace the rack back on the trailer tow bar and check whether the rack is securely and fi rmly positioned on the tow bar. Repeat the adjustment process until
the rack is secure and fi rm. Push the protective cap back onto the adjustment screw.
CAUTION
Always make sure that the lock nut on the adjusting
screw is correctly tightened!
When the rack can no longer be rotated on the trailer tow bar, rotate the securing bolt of the quick locking mechanism until it engages. Now close the quick
locking mechanism with the supplied padlock and remove the key from the lock. Store the key carefully and in a safe place. The bicycle rack is now secured to
prevent theft.
