Install A (upper cross beam) into F (frame uprights). The beam should overhang the mounting brackets by a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm).
1. Install L (upright plates) using O (M10 x 30mm carriage bolts), R (M10 Nyloc nuts) and W (washers).
2. With all mounting plates installed, tighten bolts evenly to 30 ft/lb (41 Nm) min.
3. Install J (4″ end cap) in either end of upper cross beam.

Anchor Installation

*DO NOT THROW AWAY THE PENTA SOCKET AFTER COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION. YOU WILL NEED IT TO REMOVE THE EQUIPMENT IF THAT IS NECESSARY.
1. Place the rack in the desired location (see setbacks document). Use a marker or pencil to outline the holes of the flange onto the base material. We recommend checking the hole locations after each new anchor is placed. Ensure the holes are at least 6″ away from any cracks in the base material.
2. The concrete anchor (a.k.a. “drop in anchor”) is a female anchor designed for use in solid concrete only and cannot be used in brick or block base material. The anchor size is determinded by the inside diameter or the anchor. The diameter of the hole to be drilled is the same size as the outside diameter of the anchor which is 1/2″.
3. When fastening to solid concrete with a drop in anchor, a hole must fi rst be drilled into the concrete. A hammer drill should be used as it will drill the best quality hole. Once the bit is inserted into the hammer drill, the depth of the hole to be drilled can easily be set by using the depth gauge on the drill or by wrapping the bit with tape at the required depth. We recommend a drill depth of 1-5/8″ deep so that the anchor just sets down flush with the surface.

Tool to remove debris after drilling holes. Installer provides.

1. Before starting to drill the hole, it is important that eye and ear protection are used. Make sure the hammer drill is in the hammer mode and start drilling your hole. Continue drilling until the tape on the bit or the drill gauge meets the base materialthis means that the required depth has been reached.
2. Before proceeding with installation, the hole must be cleaned of all concrete dust to ensure proper fastening. Use a wire brush, a vacuum or compressed air to clean out the hole completely.

Temporary mount hardware

1. Next, insert the drop in anchor with the open side up. Tap lightly to get the anchor flush with the base material.
2. Now, take the setting tool and insert it into the anchor. Strike the setting tool with the hammer several times until the set tool no longer moves down. This will ensure the anchor is properly set.
3. Place the rack frame and hairpins over the anchors. Tighten down using included Nyloc nuts.

Lower Tier Bike Spacing
Single-Sided Configuration
Double-Sided Configuration

1. Lay out wheel holders (parts G and H) along floor, matching spacing for desired configuration and bike spacing.
a. Alternate between parts G and H if using a staggered configuration or use G for all positions in a flat configuration.
2. Anchor in place using same steps used for anchoring uprights.

12

Lower Stall Installation

1. Install I (lower stall) onto G and H (lower and raised wheel holders) using N (2.75″ bolts) and secure using P (1/4″-20 nuts).

13

Upper Tier Bike Spacing
Left most upper mounting tube should be flush to the end of the upper crossbeam to set up proper spacing.
14

Roller Beam Installation

1. Align D and E (roller beams) directly above lower stalls. The high mount (E) and low mount (D) must correspond with the high and low mounted lower stalls.
2. The first mounting tube bracket should be flush to the end of the upper cross beam.
3. Install K (roller beam plate) using O (M10x30mm carriage bolts) with W (washers) and R (M10 lock nuts). Tighten to 30 ft/lbs (41 Nm).

15

Wheel Stop Installation

1. Insert B (wheel stop) into rear of roller beam (D and E) and align holes on both roller beam and wheel stop plate.
2. Secure in place using U (0.5″ 1/4-20 bolts).

16

Upper Stall Installation
1. Slide S (spacer) into T (roller) and evenly space ends. 2. Place C (upper stall) onto roller beam (D and E).
17

Upper Stall Installation (continued)
1. Align lower front mounting holes with roller and spacer and install M (3/8 x 3.0″ bolt) and Q (3/8 thin locknut).
2. Align Z (steel axle) with lower rear mounting holes in upper bike stall and install O (3/8 x 3.0″ bolt) and V (3/8 thin locknut).
3. Tighten locknuts to 15ft/lbs (20Nm). 4. With upper stall pushed fully inwards, set roller beam spring cable in place by pulling out
and placing into cable notch. 5. When installation is complete, pull out upper bike stalls to ensure smooth and free
movement and that cable engages.
