Step-7 Flip the front flaps

over so that they are on top of

the side flap (folded over in the

previous step). Be sure to con-

nect the matching numbers

(i.e., match “1” with “1.

Step-8 Flip the last big flap over so that

it completely closes the bottom of the box .

This will match-up the number “2” with “2”.

Tape the free edges of the box closed with

six or seven strips to bridge the edges as

shown. Place the strips approximately 8-

inches apart. Then use a long, continuous strip

to completely seal the edges of the box.

Step-10 Carefully flip the box over while

holding the transit plate or wheel truck in place.

The lettering will now be upright and the ar-

rows will point up. Once this is done, pull the

small flaps from the inside of the box to the

outside.

Step-9 Locate the ground transit

plate. (You may substitute the wheel

truck for the ground transit plate, if you

purchased the K8350 kit.) Place the

wheel truck or ground transit plate at

the front of the bottom of the box so

that the studs go through the holes

into the box. This will connect number

“3” on the wheel truck or ground tran-

sit plate with “3” on the container.

Step-12 Before going further, mark your seatpost and handlebar position for later as-

sembly. Now remove the front wheel and the saddle with seatpost from your bicycle. Loosen

the handlebar binder bolt just enough so that your handlebars can rotate in the stem. Shift

your rear derailleur so that the chain is on the hubʼs largest sprocket. Make sure the seat post

is lightly greased to prevent future problems.

Step-13A Place the fork mount on a flat surface

outside the box. Depending on your wheel size, orient

the fork mount as shown. Insert the fork into the fork mount

and tighten the wing nut clockwise. Place the bike, with

fork mount attached, into the box. Place the fork mount

over the threaded studs protruding through the bottom of

the box. Choose the pair of holes in the fork mount which

allow the handlebar to be as close as possible to the

front of the box, without touching. Place two wing nuts

over the threaded studs and tighten clockwise.

Step-13B Place the fork mount on a flat surface outside the box. De-

pending on wheel size, orient the fork mount as shown. Insert the fork into the fork

mount and tighten the wing nut clockwise. Use as many washers as necessary to

prevent interference. Remove the front 2 or 4 handlebar stem bolts using the

allen wrench provided. Rotate the stem and fork so that the stem faces the back

wheel as shown. Upon reinstallation always tighten the handlebar stem bolts to

the recommended manufacturers torque settings found in the bicycle owners

manual.

For Mountain Bicycles with Flat Bars (optional)

Step-13C Place bike with fork mount into the box. Place the fork mount over the threaded studs

protruding through the bottom of the box. Choose the pair of holes in the fork mount which allow the head

tube to be as close as possible to the front of the box without touching. Place two wing nuts over the

threaded studs and tighten clockwise. Strap the handlebars to the sprocket side of the box at two points. If

possible, lower the seat on the bicycle or place the seat in the plastic bag provided on the sprocket side of

the box. The crank arms should be perpendicular to the floor for the best fit.

Step-14 Fold the two small inserts and insert them into the box as shown.

Position them toward the rear of the box to the point where they lightly press

against the bicycleʼs seat stays and or chain stays. Do not let the inserts touch

the chainrings (chainwheels).

SMALL INSERT

Position the rear wheel to the right of center to provide more protection

for the rear derailleur. Always shift the rear derailleur into the largest rear

sprocket for shipping.

Step-16 Place the front

wheel inside the box, opposite

the bicycle chain. Use two ties to

secure the wheel to the side of

the box.

Step-15 Place your saddle

with seatpost into the small white

draw string bag and secure it to the

chain side of the box with one tie.

Useone more tie tosecure the white

drawstring bag abouthalfway down

to prevent the bag from swinging.

Step-21 Multiple containers can be

stacked on top one another in several ways as

shown or nested next to another.

Step-20 If you have the Aircraft Kit with

the wheel truck, moving the box is as simple as

picking up the pointed end and rolling it away.

Grasp the box using the lower, vertical slot.

Make sure to lift the pointed end high enough to

engage the wheels and either push or pull the

AirCaddy, whichever method gives you the most

control.
