PREPARATION

Before you are able to use the wheel stopper set, you must first remove the standard wheel stopper of your bicycle rack.

To do so, proceed as follows:

  • Release the knurled nut from the standard bicycle rack.
  • Push the wheel stopper towards the inner end of the wheel rail and use it push the end cap out of the wheel rail.
  • Pull the wheel stopper out of the wheel rail.

MOUNTING THE WHEEL STOPPERS

  • In the new wheel stoppers for wide tyres, the centre of the bicycle tyre is shifted by approx. 1 cm to the centre of the wheel rail. Insert the new wheel stopper with the guiding ridge (Position 3 in the overview) into the wheel rail so that the bicycle tyre is positioned away from the carry handle. See Figure 2.
  • The wheel stoppers for the other half the wheel rail are used accordingly.
  • Replace the end caps.

If you want to use a wheel stopper set on another bicycle rail of the bicycle rack, it must be assembled accordingly. I.e. the wheel stoppers must be assembled so that the wheel of the bicycle is fastened away from the carry handle.

CAUTION
The wheel stoppers must always be located between the wheels of the bicycle, never in front of behind.

FASTENING THE TYRES
