FITTING THE BIKE CARRIER TO THE TRAILER COUPLING
Park your vehicle on a level surface.
Apply the handbrake.
WARNING!
Personal injury or material damage due to damaged bike carrier.
Damage of the carrier, e.g. by bent parts, cracks or scratches, prevent the
safe operation of the carrier.
Do not fit the bike carrier if it is damaged in any way.
Proceed as described in the chapter “Maintenance”.
WARNING!
Personal injury or material damage due to loss of the bike carrier during
the journey.
A faulty or defective connection between the bike carrier and trailer
coupling can lead to the detachment of the bike carrier.
Replace the trailer coupling if it is damaged.
Clean the trailer coupling of dirt, dust and grease.
NOTE
There is often a layer of paint on the coupling ball. For
the best possible attachment of the bike carrier, this
paint coating should be carefully removed. Note the
instructions of the coupling manufacturer.
