The heart of the bicycle carrier drawbar mount for the Jayco chassis is the iSi Cross-
Mount. A super strong mount that braces the Jayco drawbar arms and spreads the
load over a wide area. This eliminates pressure hot spots that may otherwise cause
damage to the drawbar. Moreover, the iSi cross-mount clears the hand
brake, jockey wheel and is compatible with most weight distribution
systems and stone guards. For camper deployment, the bicycle carrier
assembly pivots up from the nose of the carrier. The overhead
rotation stops allow the operator to set the position of the carrier
from vertical all the way over to flat.

Cross-Mount
Place the Cross-Mount onto
drawbar and align foot pads with
the drawbar A-arms.
1. The breakaway module may
need to be relocated.
2. Front foot pad may be placed
over chassis number welded
to top of a-arm.
Install u-bolts over the foot pads
and install a fish plate from
underneath. Retain with a
washer and nut on each leg of
the u-bolt. Nip up nuts but
DO NOT TIGHTEN FULLY YET
StrongArm Support Post
Install the StrongArm support
post onto Cross-Mount four bolt
flange.
Insert M12 bolts with flat washer
through flange holes at base of
StrongArm support post.
Insert split lock-washer and
Nyloc nut onto underside and
retain StrongArm post to Cross-
Mount. Nip up nuts but
DO NOT TIGHTEN FULLY YET
Bicycle Carrier Main Beam
The bicycle carrier main beam can be left bare for this next step. There
is no need to have the the wheel and frame support components
installed. This can be performed later.

Bicycle Carrier Main Beam
Flip the bicycle carrier main
beam over the top of the support
post and insert a pivot pin
through the upper hole in the
pivot base and through the upper
sleeve on the carrier main beam.
Rotate the carrier main beam
rearwards until the lower sleeve
at the nose of the carrier rests
against the stop pad on the
StrongArm support post.
Insert the lower pivot pin.
Insert the R-Clips at the end of
each pivot pin.
Install Wheel Supports –Check Clearances
Install the rearmost wheel support beam into the bicycle carrier main
beam assembly. Then install the rear wheel support cradles.
Check clearance to caravan or camper body.
Align and adjust Cross-Mount position and/or slide StrongArm support
post fore/aft along slots in cross mount.
Tighten Bolts
Once aligned, tighten the cross
StrongArm support post
nuts/bolts and Cross-Mount U-
Bolts.
Hint: Tighten each leg of U-bolt
evenly so that each leg has an
equal number of threads
showing.
Finished! The drawbar mount installation is now complete. The
assembly of the bicycle carrier can now be finalised and loaded up
ready for adventure!

Bicycle Carrier Operation
Pivot Up and Over
To pivot the carrier assembly up and
forwards remove the lower pin and
insert into one of the overhead rotation
stop positions. The carrier assembly
can then be lifted and pivoted over to
the desired stop.
Remove Carrier
The carrier is retained by the two pivot pins. To remove the carrier, rotate
as per above, then remove the upper pivot pin. The carrier can then be
moved to another pivot base mount –like on the back of a vehicle.
Hint: Remove the R-clip from the
security pin and then insert the R-clip
through the hole near the handle
section of the security pin. That avoids
losing the R-Clip. When removing the
main beam altogether, fit the pins back
into the pivot base. For operators who
have more than one pivot base, it’s
easy to swap the main beam around
and always have pins at the ready on
the receiving pivot base.
Hint: One of the key features of this
bicycle carrier is the ability to easily
remove the rigid vertical support posts
via the two tee-knobs at the base of
each post sleeve. The idea isto pullthe
vertical posts out as you unload in
order to have a clear working field with
no obstructions. Insert as you load
bicycles back. When done correctly,
it’s 10 seconds per bicycle regardless
of whether the carrier is on the car or
drawbar.
