Maintenance
• Check accessory is securely attached whenever you refit it to the vehicle. If the unit feels loose, refer to the fitting
instructions and readjust.
• Regularly check all fasteners. This includes all attached accessories and roof racks.
• If straps become contaminated with oil, fuel or acid remove with hot soapy water.
• If the ratchet mechanism becomes stiff in use, a small amount of lubrication applied to the moving parts will ease
operation.
Caution
• Ensure all loads are distributed evenly across the roof racks and are fastened securely.
• A loaded roof rack system can alter the performance of your vehicle. Be especially aware of the effects of side winds,
changing of direction, and braking performance. Avoid rapid acceleration and deceleration. Drive carefully.
• Make sure all loads are securely fastened with non-elastic straps. Check regularly during longer journeys.
• Never drive into a car wash with the roof rack system fitted.
• Do not exceed the vehicle manufacturer’s roof load rating. Total load equals weight of roof racks + accessories + cargo/
equipment.
• Ratcheting strap must not be used for lifting. Protect from abrasion and friction. Do not tie knots in the straps. Do not
use a damaged strap.
• 150 kg lashing capacity on the polypropylene webbing.
