Pack-Right Sport 1 & 3 Rooftop Cargo Carrier Loading Instructions & Specifications
Place car top carrier on the roof of your car. Make sure your rack system is secure to the vehicle and don't load over it's weight limits. Have a clean car top. Shown here, optional bottom pad under the car top carrier. Place the non zipper side forward.
Load the car top carrier with hard or pointy stuff in the middle and soft stuff on the outside. Notice the side Velcro above, make sure it is fastened together when you zip the Sport closed for maximum water protection. See picture below for proper "cuff" around the opening before you zip it closed.
Zip it closed. Attach Sport to your luggage rack per the instructions below. Run the straps through the "D" rings.
We recommend the optional lock running the cable through the zipper pulls and side "D" rings and around your luggage rack.
Attaching to the luggage rack. StrapRight (TM) consists of 4 pairs of ultra strong, ultra tough nylon webbing straps, designed for easy use on just about any vehicle. Each pair consists of one long and one short strap. One has a buckle at the end, the other does not. Both straps have a loop at the end. You simply place this loop behind your luggage rack bar and pull the long end through. See the picture below.
Attach each strap to the luggage rack on opposite sides. You will use at least two sets of straps, side to side or front to back. If you have a four bar rack use all four sets. Use the strap adjustments to position the buckle where you need it. Run the straps through the "D" rings, handles, or strap guides that are on your car top carrier. Make sure each set of straps are spaced at least 20" apart. Fasten the buckle, see the diagram below.
Here is what it should look like when you are finished. You may only use two sets if you have a two bar luggage rack.
Make sure the straps are snug. Give them a good tug with your hand. If the straps are too tight however, they might rub holes. When the Sport is filled out snug, no flapping material, straps snug, and loose ends tied off, you're good to go. Test drive your load around the neighborhood. Always check your straps during your trip. Properly loaded and strapped down, Sport doesn't move around, whistle or make sounds while you drive. Place on clean roof top. Sport will not scratch your car (use a pad to protect your roof from what goes inside your carrier). Your StrapRight system comes all set up ready to use. You can adjust the buckle positions for length etc., but there is no need to take the buckles or adjustors off the straps. Pay attention how the buckles work. If you put them on incorrectly, they may slip off. Make sure there is at least 3 inches of through the adjustors to hold the strap in place. If you don't have a luggage rack, use the optional car clips with your hard top vehicle. Put the clips on the straps and put the clips under the roof frame inside the doors. (More info on car clips here). (Strap Right details here.) Car top carriers do not hold firewood, kids, pets, glass objects, rare artwork etc. RAIN: With the ZipRight closure properly closed (Velcro on the sides fastened) it's very difficult for water to get in. However there are stitched seams, some of which are taped. You can add seam sealer or pack your gear in big plastic bags inside the Sport. Direct to Sport 1 order page! Direct to Sport 2 order page!
