TOOLS NEEDED
NOTE:
The Foot Rail Mounting Kit (FAVT004) that you have received is suitable for
mounting a Half Rack or a Full Rack. If you have chosen to mount a Half Rack
not all of the components supplied will be used. It is suggested that all
additional components be stored for use at a later stage should you wish to
upgrade to a Full Rack
FIGURE 1.1
FIT AND SECURE
If you are installing a Full Rack remove all the OEM Plastic Button Head Bolts, but if you are installing a Half Rack remove the rear Bolts (3, 4 & 5) on the left and right hand side of the vehicle.
Use a 4mm Hex Allen Key to remove the above bolts from the roof channel.
Tightening Torque:
M6: 8-10Nm / 5.9 ft lb – 7.38 ft lb
M8: 15-20Nm / 11.06 ft lb – 14.75 ft lb
Put a small amount of silicone around each of the mounting points and place a
spacer (Item 3 ) over the factory mounting point aligning the hole with the
hole in the roof.
Secure the Front and Rear Foot Rail
(Item 1 & 2) to the vehicle using M6 x 30 Hex
Head Bolts, M6 Spring Washers, M6 x 19 x 1
Flat Washers and Spacers (Items 3, 4, 5 & 6).
Place M6 Nut Caps over all Hex Head Bolts (Item 7).
Fully tighten all fasteners.
FIT AND SECURE
3.1 Refer to RRSTUNI when assembling your Slimline II Tray.
Make sure that the wind deflector is installed before you proceed to the next step.
Fit your roof rack to the Foot Rails using M8 x 20 Hex Bolts, M8 x 16 x 1.6SS Flat Washers and M8 Nyloc Nuts (Items 8, 9 & 10) as shown.
3.4 Center the rack and fully tighten all fasteners. Use M8 Nut Caps (Items 11) to finish off the nuts.
