To Install:

Slide the appropriate mounting base on either the towbar

receiver tube or the BX88160 receiver extension with the open slots towards the rear of the vehicle. Then pin the towbar or extension into the hitch receiver of the vehicle. Once the mounting base is located in the correct spot, tighten the hex bolt on the side of the mounting base. Place the BXJR117 OR BXJR118 into the mounting base, making sure the pegs slide into the open slots of the mounting base. Then secure the bike rack to the mounting base using the 3/8" and 1/2" pins w/clips. Loosen the knobs at the top of the rack, then place the bikes in the appropriate locations. Note: Some bikes may need a ladies/ juniors bike adapter (BXJR102) for mounting to the bike rack. Once the bikes are positioned, replace the top mount plate and tighten the knobs to secure the bikes. NOTE: To deter theft use one lock knob (BXJR103) on the top of the bike rack, one padlock on one of the two pins that secure the bike rack to the mount base, and the receiver extension or towbar should also be locked into the vehicle's hitch. NOTE: If a complete receiver mount (BXJR107) is used, the mounting bases aren't necessary.

CAUTION:

Insure security of all locking bolts and pins.
