Recommendations:
It is essential that all bolt connections be checked after driving a short distance when you rst install your crossbars. Bolt con-
nections 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 crossbars each time they are retted. Make sure to fasten your load
securely. Please ensure that all loads are evenly distributed and that the centre of gravity is kept as low as possible.
Use only non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Load Ratings
When these roof racks are to be used on a vehicle that is driven off sealed roads, the manufacturer maximum roof load rating (to
be found in the vehicles User Manual) should be
halved
. For example, if the vehicles maximum roof load rating is 70kgs (sub-
tract 5kg - weight of crossbar and legs), these racks, when tted to this vehicle should have no more than 35kgs loaded on them
Caution:
The handling characteristics of the vehicle changes when you transport a load on the roof. For safety reasons we recommend
you exercise extreme care when transporting wind-resistant loads. Special consideration must be taken into account when cor-
nering and braking.Please remove crossbars when putting vehicle through an automatic car wash.

It is your responsibility to ensure instructions are given to the end user or client.
