ATTACHING THE MOTORCYCLE TO THE TRANSPORT TRAILER

Drive your motorcycle right to the front of the transport trailer, until the front wheel sits correctly in the holder. Select the suitable fixing method for your motorcycle, Images 3 - 6. Set up the tie-down system as shown in the images. Tighten the tensioning straps gently and evenly with the help of the ratchets. Using the tensioning strap with clamp lock, affix the back tire of your motorcycle to the wheel rail of the transport trailer, Image 7. Now tighten the tensioning strap and lock the ratchet.

RELEASING THE TENSIONING STRAP

Make sure when releasing the tensioning strap that the motorcycle won't fall over. There is a risk of injuries and the vehicle may be damaged.
Pull the lock towards the end of the tensioning lever (Figure 8). Hold the locking mechanism fi rmly and unfold the ratchet
completely (180°) Image 8. With the locking mechanism held, the wrapping mechanism is free and you are able to release the tensioning strap.

MAINTENANCE AND CARE

The textile section of the tie-down system is maintenance-free when used in accordance with the intended purpose. Clean the ratchet mechanisms after use outdoors to remove dirt and dust. Lightly lubricate the ratchet mechanism after cleaning using a light, thin oil
