1. General information
In this manual you will find important information on the correct use of our
motorcycle tarpaulin.
In order to maintain the value of your motorcycle and to prevent premature aging, it
is essential that the following instructions are followed during use.
Incorrect use of the tarpaulin can lead to damage to your motorcycle.
This document is available on our website: www.mycover-protection.com in the
"FAQ" section. If you have any questions about the use of the cover, please contact:

Example of correct use of the cover on your motorcycle:

2. Conditions of use
Before you insert the tarpaulin, your motorcycle must be clean (no sand or other dirt,
oil, etc.). The friction that occurs when the tarpaulin is pulled on, or the movement
caused by the wind, can damage the paintwork, plastic parts, mirrors, rims, etc. or
the tarpaulin if the motorcycle is dirty.
Make sure that your motorcycle is dry and not damp before using the tarpaulin.
Moisture between the motorcycle and the tarpaulin can lead to rust, for example. The
material is breathable, but cannot let 100% of the moisture through.
Weather-dependent changes in humidity can cause condensation between the
motorcycle and the tarpaulin. The tarpaulin should therefore be checked regularly for
the presence of condensation or moisture, especially when the weather changes (dry
to damp / damp to dry or temperature fluctuations, e.g. day and night).
Rule of thumb: The tarpaulin should have a minimum distance of 10 cm from the
ground so that moisture absorption by the circulating air can be reduced.
Direct sunlight on the tarpaulin should be avoided as far as possible to reduce the
formation of condensation water and to protect the material.
Our tip: A protected, shady parking space.
Care products and special cleaners, chain spray, corrosion and solvents or similar,
as well as freshly painted components (also applies to new vehicles) may continue
to evaporate for up to 6 months and cause a chemical reaction between the
components and the tarpaulin, which may contaminate and/or damage the
motorcycle or tarpaulin. Avoid contact between these substances and the tarpaulin.
Be sure to look for sharp edges on your motorcycle, such as the license plate, license
plate holder, crash pads, pedals, attachments, etc. These can damage the tarpaulin
and/or the motorcycle during use. Furthermore, make sure that the tarpaulin is also
checked for dirt, dirt and damage before and after use. For correct cleaning of the
tarpaulin, see section 6 "Cleaning".
The most important rule for use: Be careful! Do not use force or power, but pull the
tarpaulin up carefully and calmly.

The tarpaulin is not suitable for mobile transport of the motorcycle, e.g. on a trailer
or similar.
3. Using the Cover (installation)
Step 1:
• Align the fully extended tarpaulin according to the vehicle.
• Starting at the front, place the tarpaulin over the mirrors and the handlebar
ends over the front fairing.
• Pull the tarpaulin apart through the handle on the lower hem (left and right of
the reflector strip) and pull it completely down over the front wheel.
Step 2:
• Spread the rest of the tarpaulin over the vehicle (place it over the seat).
• Walk towards the rear of the car.
Step 3:
• Pull the cover sheeting apart through the handle on the lower hem (left and
right of the reflector strip).
• Fold the tarpaulin completely over the registration plate and the rear tyre.
4. Safety Instructions
Intended use
The following safety instructions must be observed during use.
Damage to the tarpaulin or the motorcycle caused by not observing the instructions
in this manual invalidates the warranty. We accept no liability for possible
consequential damage.
No liability will be accepted for damage to property and personal injury caused by
improper handling and/or failure to observe the safety instructions, and the warranty
claim will be voided.
The tarpaulin and packaging material must be kept away from children - it is not a
toy - as there is a danger of suffocation.

Rev. 13.02.2020

To ensure correct operation and to avoid damage to the motorcycle and the tarpaulin,
the original condition of the tarpaulin must be maintained. Any optical or technical
changes to the tarpaulin are not permitted and will invalidate the warranty.
Your motorcycle can become very hot during fast rides, e.g. the manifold can reach
temperatures of over 600°C. Your motorcycle (manifold, engine, exhaust, headlights,
etc.) must therefore first be cooled down to a normal ambient temperature before
you use the tarpaulin. Too high temperatures can cause damage to the tarpaulin and
your motorcycle. There is a risk of fire.
The motorcycle must always be parked in a protected area. In the event of strong
wind, storm, hail, thunderstorms and the like, there is a risk that the motorcycle will
tip over due to the higher wind resistance. For safety reasons, the use of the tarpaulin
in the above-mentioned weather conditions must be avoided. Consequential damage
is possible.
5. Transport and storage
The scope of delivery of the cover includes a transport bag. Before the tarpaulin can
be stored or transported, it must be completely dry and clean. Dirt and moisture can
cause mould to grow or damage the tarpaulin or packaging. Do not fold or crease the
tarpaulin at the license plate window or ventilation ears as this may cause irreversible
damage. When folding the cover sheet for the transport bag, start with the license
plate window so that it is not folded inside the transport bag.
6. Cleaning
No cleaning agents or similar may be used for cleaning. We recommend wiping the
tarpaulin with lukewarm water only. The tarpaulin must not be left on the floor to dry.
We recommend using two chairs outside. Improper drying, e.g. by using clothes pegs
(sharp edges), the dryer or similar, can damage the tarpaulin. Be careful when
cleaning the license plate viewing window (susceptible to scratches).

7. Disposal
The packaging must be disposed of separately. When disposing of the tarpaulin,
please ensure that it is taken to a material collection point and not disposed of with
household waste.
8. Warranty
The cover can be used for different motorcycle models. However, before using the
tarpaulin in accordance with its intended purpose and type, it must be checked and
verified that neither the motorcycle nor the tarpaulin can be damaged. Observe the
manufacturer's and operating instructions for the motorcycle. Some manufacturers
even require the headlamp to cool down completely to prevent damage to the
tarpaulin and motorcycle. There are also manufacturers who point out that the
windscreen warps/melts if the motorcycle is facing the sun and covered with a
tarpaulin. It is normal for the colour of the tarpaulin and the logo print to fade over
time due to the effects of UV radiation, which has a permanent damaging effect on
the material.
