SMC-600R - Hitch Mounted Sport Motorcycle Carrier Installation

Today we're showing you how to properly install the SMC-600R Motorcycle Carrier from Rage
Powersports.
To begin slide the Anti-Tilt device onto the Main Hitch Tube of the carrier.
With another person, install the Carrier and align the 1/2” hole on the Main Hitch Tube
with the vehicle hitch pin hole.
Slide the Pinch Bolt and Sleeve into place and tighten using 2 17mm sockets or wrenches.
Next slide the Anti-Tilt device forward until flush against the hitch and finger tighten
all bolts. Once finger tight use a 17mm socket or wrench to firmly tighten.
After the carrier is secure, unscrew the wing-nuts and remove the loading ramp from the storage
pins.
Align the Loading Ramp mounting pin with the mounting hole on the Carrier Track.
Before loading, it is recommended that you have two ratchet straps attached and ready
on the front tie-down points.
It is also recommended that you attach 4 soft loops to the motorcycle to create safe and
proper tie-down points before loading.
With the motorcycle in line with the loading ramp and another person to assist, smoothly
push the motorcycle up the ramp, into the carrier track with the front wheel resting
in the wheel chock and cradle.
If there is excess room you will have to remove the motorcycle from the carrier and adjust
the wheel chock to the proper wheel size.
When the wheel chock is properly sized, the front of your motorcycle will sit up off of
the Carrier Track.
After your motorcycle is installed on the carrier, attach all 4 tie-down straps to the
soft loops. Be sure all straps are tight and secure.
Once the bike is secure, tie up any excess strapping from the tie downs.
After the motorcycle is secure, store the loading ramp back on the carrier and Secure
with wing nuts.
Before transport and periodically during travel, ensure the motorcycle is properly tied down,
the carrier is tight in the receiver hitch, and that all parts of the carrier are secure.
