Rhino-Rack RSP19 Manual

RSP19 Nissan X-Trail - Sportz Pad Removable 2 Bar System
Important: Please read these instructions carefully prior to installation.
Please refer to your fitting instruction to ensure that the cross bars are installed in the correct locations.
Check the contents of kit before commencing fitment and report any discrepancies.
Place these instructions in the vehicle's glove box after installation is complete.
Layout
Maximum carrying capacity: 80kg.

Recommendations:

It is essential that all bolt connections be checked after driving a short distance when you first install your cross bars. Bolt connec-
tions should be checked again at regular intervals (probably once a week is enough, depending on road conditions, usage, loads
and distances travelled). You should also check the cross bars each time they are re-fitted. Make sure to fasten your load securely.
Please ensure that all loads are evenly distributed over the two cross bars and that the centre of gravity is kept as low as possible.
Use only non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Caution:
The handling characteristics of the vehicle change when you transport a load on the roof. For safety reasons, we recommend exer-
cising extreme care when transporting large wind-resisting loads; special consideration must be taken into account when negotiat-
ing corners and under braking.
Please remove cross bars when putting vehicle through an automatic car wash.

Load Ratings:

Maximum permissible load is 80kg evenly distributed over the two cross bars. When cross bars are to be used in off-road condi-
tions, please build a safety factor of 1.5 into this load limit. 60kg maximum for off-road conditions. Although the cross bars are
tested and approved to AS1235-2000, Australian road conditions can be much more rigorous. Increasing the number of cross bars
does not increase the vehicles maximum permissible roof loading.
Note for Dealers and Fitters:
It is your responsibility to ensure instructions are given to the end user or client.
