. Place the 1st kayak onto the foam
blocks and against the carriers. Place
the loops over the kayak. Dress the
free ends of the straps under the

buckles. Pull down to tighten.
See image 13.
. Place the strap loops parallel to the carriers
with the front strap loop on the windshield
and the rear strap loop on the back of the
vehicle. See image 12. Note: If only one
kayak will be transported, route the free end
of each load strap under the cross bar (behind
the carrier) prior to placing the loop in image

more strength to the installation.
. Confirm that the kayak is evenly seated on
the foam blocks and securely strapped to
the carriers. See image 14.

the second set of loops up and under the first
set of already tightened straps. Repeat steps
