The model 210CR, 410CR, 610CR, and 722BK Cycle Racks hitch to your frame-mounted 2"x2" class III or better receiver hitch (use a class IV or V receiver hitch for model 610CR and the model 722BK 2-place Cycle Rack). The Cycle Rack tilts for easy loading with no heavy lifting or hazardous ramps. It has an extender to reduce the incline on taller vehicles and it also prevents the channel from leveling before the rear wheel is on board. The slam latch locks the channel in the leveled position while you attach your tie-down straps to the horizontal bars for safe transporting of your bike(s). The motion reducer bolt, when tight, reduces the side-to-side motion in the receiver hitch and also discourages theft of the rack.

Attach the Cycle Rack to your host vehicle by first removing the 5/8" receiver-hitch pin. Then insert the hitch bar into the receiver hitch of your vehicle until the pinholes in both units are aligned. Reinsert the hitch pin and its safety securing R clip. Tighten the bolt on the side of the hitch bar to reduce any movement in the hitch.

The channel extender slides out from under the Cycle Rack channel 16 inches. This feature allows the motorcycle's rear wheel to be on board before the cycle reaches the balance point and also reduces the angle of incline. The extender is held in place by a 5/16" pin connected by a small chain. After pulling out the extender, go to the opposite end and release the slam latch while holding onto the Cycle Rack so it does not tilt too quickly. Slowly allow the channel to tilt until the end of the channel extender touches the ground. Be sure the latch is in its ready-to-lock position. You are now ready to load your bike.

Push your bike up onto the rack until the front wheel is all the way forward in the wheel hoop and the channel rocks forward to engage the slam latch. Hook your tie-down straps from the handle bars to the tie-down bar, pull the tie-down straps tight while rocking the bike side to side until the front spring shocks are compressed. Secure another strap to the rear wheel, going through the wheel and around the rack. Slide the extender in and reinsert the 5/16" pin. You are now ready to go!

Do not place flammable or nonflammable objects such as luggage, cloth, plastic tarps, wood, gas cans, etc., in front of, behind, or near exhaust of vehicle. The heat from the exhaust could ignite items in its path!

Tilt-a-Rack® Mobility Scooter Carrier Warranty

The Scooter Rack attaches to your host vehicle by removing the 5/8" hitch pin, then inserting the hitch bar into the receiver hitch of your vehicle until the pinholes in both units are aligned. Reinsert the hitch pin and its safety securing hair pin. Tighten the bolt on the side of the hitch bar to reduce any movement in the hitch.

You are now ready to load the scooter!

1. The deck extender slides out from under the Scooter Rack 18 inches. This feature allows the Scooter Rack to reach the curb when parking parallel and also reduces the angle of incline. The deck extender has a safety securing pin on the left side. Pull up on this spring-loaded pin and slide the extender out to its fully extended position.

2. The slam latch safely holds the Scooter Rack from tilting. Under the left side of the Scooter Rack, release the slam latch while holding onto the Scooter Rack so it does not tilt too quickly. Slowly allow the deck to tilt until the end of the deck extender touches the ground. Be sure the slam latch is in its ready-to-lock position.

3. The end rails are located at both sides of the Scooter Rack. The end rail on the right side is a removable rail that is taken off and set aside. The end rail on the left side is an extension rail. This rail may be extended out 8 inches. Remove the securing pins, extend the rail, and reinsert the pins. This allows the scooter to roll forward enough to pass the balance point and safely stop while the Scooter Rack levels itself and locks into position. After the rack has locked level, the scooter should be repositioned, allowing both end rails to be returned to their original position. Slide the deck extender in until the spring-loaded pin locks it into place. Tie down the scooter and you are ready to go.

4. A hinging device just behind the receiver hitch has a three-position 5/8" pin. When the pin is in its primary position, the rack is locked in place horizontally. The 2nd position allows the rack to float or lift upward when the vehicle encounters uneven road surfaces that might cause the rear of the rack to drag. The 3rd position allows the Scooter Rack to fold up vertically when transporting empty.

5. The leveling bolt is a very simple device to use. With a slight adjustment of the bolt height, a rack can be leveled. An unlevel rack occurs when a receiver hitch is not exactly parallel with the ground.

NEW OPTIONAL FEATURE:
Height adjuster hitch bar is available for either the model 500RV or 350RV. This new option will allow the rack to be either raised or lowered 4 inches for more versatility. This height adjuster hitch bar is also a reasonably priced after-market feature for a previously purchased Scooter Rack. The standard hitch bar and the height adjuster hitch bar can be ordered for class II or class III receivers.
