6. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The bicycle rack must rst be assembled. Take all of the components out of
the packaging and set them out clearly. Every stage is described and clearly
shows which components are required for the assembly of the rack.
6.1.1 MOUNTING THE WHEEL RAILS
Place the wheel rail halves, with the plastic shells on the outside, parallel
on the base frame so that the drilled holes in the rail match the holes in
the base frame. Secure each wheel rail to the base frame with the two lock
screws M6 x 50, washers and self-tapping nuts M6.
6.1.2 MOUNTING THE LAMP MOUNT
Join the two halves of the lamp mount together. This is made easier by the
small guide element which is already mounted on one side. Push the rails
together and secure the connection with the cross-headed screw (M5x12)
and washer.
Insert the cross-headed screws M5 x 35 with spring washers and washers,
from below, through the vertical drilled holes of the lamp mount. Insert the
screws through the threaded holes on the underside at the end of the lamp
mount. Tighten the screws.
Make sure that the fog light is installed on the left side of the mount!
