ASSEMBLY
Step 1. Place the main hitch tube (R) on a piece of cardboard to protect the
paint, then connect the support brackets (U) to the hitch tube using eight
3/4″ bolts (C) and lock nuts (E), keeping bolts loose. Step 2. Slide the
carrier frame (O) between the support brackets (U) and secure using the 2″
bolts (D) and the small lock nuts (E). Tighten ALL bolts including bolts from
Step 1. Be careful not to overtighten.
Step 3. Slide the tie down tubes (P) into the carrier frame (O). Then secure
the carrier track (T) to the carrierframe using 3″ bolts (B), sleeves (I), and
lock nuts (G) on each end. Note: Sleeves (I) are used to eliminate extra play
between the carrier frame and tie down tubes.
Step 4. Next connect the front tire stop and the rear
cradle using six 1″ bolts (H) and the larger lock nuts (G) to secure it to the
carrier
Step 5. Connect the loading ramp (Q)

connect using the wing nuts (K). Connect the loop bolts (J) to the end of
each tie down tube (P) using the lock nuts (F). Slide the anti-tilt (S) onto
the main tube (R).

Slide the reverse anti-tilt (S) onto the main tube (R) with the single bolt
pointing toward the carrier track. Slide the carrier main tube (R) into the
trailer hitch, lining up the larger 5/8″ hole in the main tube with the hitch
pin hole. Insert the hitch pin (L) and install the hitch pin clip. Slide the
reverse anti-tilt bracket (S) forward toward the vehicle hitch until it is
flush against the hitch. Tighten the four bolts on the anti-tilt bracket. 2nd

the hitch pin hole. Slide the 3-1/2″ pinch bolt (A) (with sleeve on bolt side
of bolt) through the trailer hitch hole. Install the lock nut on the bolt and
tighten. See diagram.
