Important Information
Maximum carrying capacity: 100kg (220lbs) evenly distributed over the cross bars. Please refer to your vehicle
manufacturers handbook for maximum roof loading. Always use lower of the two figures.
Recommendations:
It is essential that all bolt connections be checked after driving a short distance when you first install your cross bars. Bolt connec
-
tions should be checked again at regular intervals (probably once a week is enough, depending on road conditions, usage, loads
and distances travelled). You should also check the cross bars each time they are refitted. Make sure to fasten your load securely.
Please ensure that all loads are evenly distributed and that the centre of gravity is kept as low as possible.
Use only non-stretch fastening ropes or straps.
Caution:
The handling characteristics of the vehicle changes when you transport a load on the roof. For safety reasons we
recommend you exercise extreme care when transporting wind-resistant loads. Special consideration must be taken into account
when cornering and braking.
Please remove cross bars when putting vehicle through an automatic car wash.
Load Ratings:
Maximum permissible load is 100kg (220lbs) for two cross bars including the weight of the cross bars, 7kg (15lbs). When cross
bars are to be used in off-road conditions, please build a safety factor of 1.5 into this load limit for off-road use, two cross bars =
66kg (145lbs)
. Although the cross bars are tested and approved to AS1235-2000, Off road conditions can be much more rigor

ous. However, increasing the number of cross bars does not increase the vehicles maximum permissible roof loading.
Wash vehicle roof prior to installing roof
racks.
NOTE: Please read through instructions before fitting the racks to your vehicle.
