Minimum/Maximum Tyre Diameter: ....... 17-21” (430-535mm)
4. INSTALLATION
4.1. Identify the chock mounting points as shown in fig.3. The mounting holes are square to enable the use of coach bolts, having
a short square shank behind the head which prevents the bolt from rotating whilst the fixings are tightened.
4.2. PERMANENT INDOOR/OUTDOOR INSTALLATION
Choose the installation site carefully so that there is good access to both insert the motorcycle, and remove it, from the chock. When
mounting indoors, ensure that the motorcycle and chock do not become a hazard to people or indoor vehicles such as fork lift trucks. Use
anchor bolt fixings to secure the chock to a solid concrete surface.

4.3. INSTALLATION FOR TRANSPORTATION
4.3.1. When used for the transport of motorcycles, the base must be firmly bolted to the floor of a trailer or van.
4.3.2. If mounting to a trailer or other vehicle, ensure that the floor is strong enough to take the weight of the motorcycle/s plus the chock/s.
4.3.3. The chock is secured to the base by means of the four wing bolts and spring washers (fig.5). When using the chock for
transportation purposes, the front wheel of the motorcycle must be securely strapped to the chock utilising the strap gap indicated in
fig.4.
4.3.4. For additional security, consideration should also be given to securing the rear wheel as well.
5. OPERATIONoperation
5.1. SET HINGED CRADLE TO CORRECT HEIGHT
5.1.1. Ascertain the size of the motorcycle’s front wheel in order to set the hinged cradle part of the chock at the correct height (fig.4).
Position 1 is for larger wheels up to 535mm in diameter. Position 3 is for smaller wheels down to 430mm. Position 2 is for sizes in
between the stated limits.
5.1.2. Using a 17mm spanner, remove the nuts from the hinge bolts and remove the bolts. Position the cradle at the required height and
re-insert the bolts. Screw the nuts back onto the bolts and tighten them to the point where the nuts just start to grip. Now back the
nuts off slightly so that the cradle can pivot freely.
5.2. POSITIONING THE FRONT WHEEL OF THE MOTORCYCLE INTO THE CRADLE
5.2.1. With the cradle in the open position as shown in fig.3, line the motorcycle up with the chock.
5.2.2. Push the motorcycle firmly into the chock so that the front tyre is held by the tapered part of the chock loop.
5.2.3. As the weight of the wheel passes over the inner loop of the cradle, it will cause the cradle to flip up and support the rear of the tyre as
shown in fig.1.
5.2.4. Check that the bike is stable within the chock before leaving it. If the wheel is loose in the chock, move the cradle up to the next
position. If the wheel is riding too high, move the cradle down so that the bottom of the tyre is in contact with the baseplate.
5.3. REMOVING BIKE FROM CRADLE
5.3.1. More effort will be required to remove the bike from the cradle. Ensure that the space into which the bike will move is free from
obstructions and people.
6. a MAINTENANCE
6.1. When the chock is not in use, leave it in the open position.
6.2. Keep the chock clean and wipe off any oil or grease.
6.3. Before each use check all parts. If any part of the chock is
damaged or defective, remove the chock from service and take the
necessary action to remedy the problem.
