Step 3: Assemble Wings

Slide Wings into the WingMan Base pockets and

secure the Wings to the Base with the Wire Lock

Pins.

Step 4: Attach Wheel Cradle Assembly

Determine the approximate center-to-center dis-

tance between the hubs of the bike wheels and

attach the wheel cradles to the Wings with the Hair

Pin Clips to match this distance.

Assembly

Position the Tilt Tube in the horizontal position and lock

into place with the black handled Tilt Pin. Lightly rub the

top and side surfaces of the Tilt Tube with the included

bar of parafin wax to ensure smooth telescoping action

and protect the surface of the tube.

Insert the Teleporter Shank in the hitch as shown

with

the structural rise above the hitch

. Attach using the

Silent Hitch Pin®, threading the Silent Hitch Pin® into

the pre-installed Spring Nut in the Shank Tube. Tighten

firmly with a 7/8” wrench. Apply pin clip or secure with

lock.

Slide the Telescope Tube onto the Tilt Tube and attach

using the Silent Hitch Pin® with Handle, apply pin clip
