Carefully unwrap the Tow Bar, Tongue, Tow Ball, and hardware kit. Check list to ensure all components and fasteners are present.
2. With the help of an assistant, offer the Tow Bar up to the large square steel plate underneath the rear of the vehicle. Secure the Tow Bar with M10 x 30mm Hex Head Bolt, M10 Flat Washer and M10 Spring Washer at each of the four attachment points.
If the Tow Bar slots do not line up with the holes in the square steel plate on the vehicle, then the captive nuts will need to be removed from the top side of the plate. Offer the Tow Bar up to the plate and mark through the Tow Bar slots onto the chassis plate. Drill 12mm holes at these locations and then attach the Tow Bar using fasteners as per above but with an M10 Flat Washer and M10 Nylok Nut on top of the chassis plate.
Centralise the Tow Bar to the vehicle chassis and check the gaps between the Tow Bar end plates and the chassis. The gaps can be taken up with a combination of one or more of the Square Spacers in 1mm, 2mm, and 4mm thicknesses.
Secure the Tow Bar with M10 x 30mm Hex Head Bolt, M10 Flat Washer and M10 Spring Washer at each of the two attachment points on the end plates. Leave the bolts loose.
