To lower the rack into the access position
when it is empty, grasp the release lever
and while pushing the rack towards the
vehicle pull the spring loaded pin out.
Supporting the whole rack, lower the unit.
Do not set the unit onto your feet.
To raise the rack back to the drive position
when it is empty simply push on the
Vertical Hanger Supports just above
where they insert into the top plate.
Never operate the vehicle with the rack in the lowered to the ground position!
Ensure that the weight of the bikes is evenly distributed on the bike rack. If the weight is not
distributed equally, it may be necessary to lift the rack on the heavy side to pull the lowering
release lever.
The steps for lowering and raising the rack when loaded are the same as unloaded.
Depending on the weight of the bikes and the strength of the user one or two additional riders
may be necessary to assist with lowering and raising a fully loaded Hang5 Rack.
