Line up the Center Hole on the Hitch Insert Support [A] with the hole on the Hitch Insert Base [B].
Pass the M12 x 150 Bolt [C] through a M12 Washer [D] and then through the Center Hole. Once
the bolt has passed all the way through both sides of the large plate attached to the Support Arm,
slide an M12 Washer [D] over the threads of the bolt and fully tighten the M12 Lock Nut [E] onto
the bolt using tools noted above.
IMPORTANT! It is critical that the nut and bolt are fully tightened so that threads pass through the
locking insert inside of nut as shown in [Fig 1a] below, but still allowing tilt and fold up operation to
work freely.
