Warning and disclaimer:
Failure to follow warnings and instructions may result in INJURY OR DEATH 💀 ,
VEHICLE CRASH, PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Failure to follow warnings and instructions WILL Void the warranty.
Hauling heavy loads at highway speed is a serious task.
Please take it seriously.
1. DO NOT use this swing out attachment with ANY other hitch adaptors, hitch extenders, hitch
doublers. THIS IS DANGEROUS and could result in property damage, serious injury or death.
This will surely jeopardize ground clearance, add wobble and damage parts and pads.
2. Do NOT install any non-LOLO brand bike racks into or onto the swing out.

3. Use with a class C or larger RV, motor-home is prohibited. Use on any trailer is strictly
prohibited.
4. Be aware of low clearance sections or roads to avoid contact with ground. Use caution when
crossing ditches and gullies swing out may hit.
5. Be careful of your hands and kids around pinch points in the swing.
6. Check that ALL bolts and nuts are tightly secured monthly.
7. Intended only for class 3, 4 or 5 hitches (2” receiver). (2.5” is okay with reducer sleeve)
Warranty is void if used in a smaller hitch with an adaptor. This is dangerous and is surely
overloading the small hitch. If your hitch itself is wobbly or flexing by hand discontinue use
immediately and have the hitch inspected or serviced.

8. Do not operate the swing without either a lock or hairpin clip on the end of the hitch bolt for
safety.
9. Do not exceed 250lbs total, keep in mind the 4 bike Lolo rack is about 55 and the 6 bike Lolo
is about 68 pounds by themselves.
10. Remove E-Bike batteries prior to loading.
11. This swing rack is not intended for rugged off-road use. Exercise better judgment and be more
cautious when traveling with the swing installed.
12. Modification, removal or substitution of the swing or any components in any way will void the
warranty.
13. For those that live where they salt or treat the roads: we recommend washing the rack with soapy
water after driving on salty roads and then spraying WD-40 inside some of the holes in all the tubes.
14. Mud Flaps will help keep your swing from being sprayed with rocks and salt. This will prolong it’s
beauty and functioning life.
15. DO NOT remove the 90 deg stopper bolt. Doing so will damage the rack and void your warranty.

Pay attention to changing terrain!
Be careful when navigating up and down steep inclines and
driveways and deep ditches.
Damage can occur to vehicle, bike rack or bikes.

Okay, LETS DO THIS!
The Lolo and Swing are designed to be bolted directly together for a more compact and
robust system. You must build the rack to the swing as shown below.
If you are building the rack and swing for the first time skip ahead to installing the square nut.
Tools required:
●5/8” socket fits the locking hitch bolt.
●3/4” wrenches or sockets. (19mm works in an emergency)

First step for those with an existing Lolo Rack
Remove The top cross bar. This is just to make the rack lighter and easier to maneuver later.

Next, Remove the red pin and lay the rack down on the ground. Remove the side plates.
Clean all parts with WD-40 or similar.

Remove the hitch bolt from the hitch and car.
Remove the square nut from inside of the normal Lolo receiver tube.
Clean all parts as you go.

Install Hitch Tightener per it’s packaging. Note the bend in the plate and it’s orientation.
Place U-bolt over the Lolo tube and push up against the vehicle hitch.
