Mount the Interconnect into your vehicle’s receiver and lower the Interconnect. See the Interconnect companion manual for details.
Step 2:
Open the quick release levers on the back of both cross arm sleeves.

e upper Cross Arm will rest on the Bumper bar.
Adjust the quick release lever to provide a tight clamping force on the Spine. Choose a vertical or horizontal lever position and close cam lever.

You can use this
QUICK CONNECT feature
to easily remove the cross arms when
you are not using your Dramaster.
Step 5:
e lower Cross Arm must overlap the snap button on the Spine.

A. Position the mounting clamp
right-le as needed to capture the wheel of your bicycle.
B. Slide the wheel tray onto the mounting clamp. e tray’s T slot should engage the clamp T and the head of the clamp bolt.
C. Slide the wheel strap’s mounting bolt head into the tray’s T slot.
ALL BICYCLES SHOULD ALWAYS BE MOUNTED FRONT END UP ON A DRAFTMASTER.
We position your fork mounts at the factory in the right-le position and up-down orientation that is most likely to work for your combination of bicycles.
A
A few congurations may require a dierent fork mount orientation for shipping purposes. ese fork mounts will be marked to indicate that you need to re-position them.

clearance with adjacent
bicycles.
