• In this case, install the longer bar on the front and the shorter bar on the rear.

8. Keep a minimum gap of 27 inches (700 mm) between the load bars.
9. Keep a minimum distance oof 23inches (600mm) between the load bars while carrying heavy loads.
10. Ensure that the load bars are securely mounted on the roof each time they are installed. To check the security of the bars, firmly grasp them and attempt to move them forward and backward, as well as side to side. If any part of the unit moves, the mounting screws must be tightened to prevent movement. Check the security of the load bars regularly.
11. Do not exceed the maximum load limit of 16Slbs (75kg). This limit may be less depending on the maximum roof load recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. Always defer to the lowest maximum suggested roof load.
