Payload

• The load capacity of the CATE carrier set is calculated at 300 kg.
  However, the specified maximum system load on the vehicle (150-300 kg) is vehicle-specific and is determined by the chassis of the transporting vehicle. Unladen weight (existing extensions, accessories) and permissible axle loads of the vehicle also have an influence and can limit the maximum system load capacity on the respective vehicle.
• The specified load capacity does not include its own weight. This does NOT have to be subtracted, so it is the actual payload.

Attachment

• The attachment of the adapter set to the cars chassis (receptacle for the basic carrier) is similar to that of a trailer hitch.
• The adapters are screwed to the mounting points of the hitch or mounted in addition to an existing hitch.
• Towbar and CATE motorcycle rack can both be used, just not at the same time.
• The socket of an already installed hitch is sufficient for the electrical 12V power supply of the light strip.
  For vehicles without hitch, the power supply must be provided from the vehicle side.
• After installing the carrier, including the transport floor and motorcycle kit, the tailgate of the vehicle can be opened.
  However, this is not possible when the vehicle is loaded, when using the bike rails, or when the rear protection bar is installed.
• The curb weight of the vehicle and permissible axle loads must be taken into account and can affect the maximum load of the carrier.

 
Security Requirements (according to german laws, abroad regulations may vary)

• A technical report from TÜV Süd and detailed assembly instructions are included (in german only) in the scope of delivery.
• Depending on the vehicle, a TÜV demonstration/entry in the vehicle documents may be required,
  (german regulation for german licensed cars. In other countries regulations may vary.)
• A total width of 300 cm must not be exceeded.
• Requires the attachment of a third license plate (repeat license plate).

 
Car Driving Behavior with mounted CATE Set

• When the CATE carrier is mounted and loaded, the driving behavior may change (weight shift to the rear).
• There is no speed limit when carrying the CATE set, however, we recommend adhering to the recommended speed or adapting the speed to the road conditions.

Accessory

• Our accessories expand the possible applications of the load carrier system and increase transport safety.
• The use of the rear protection bar is recommended as this allows secure attachment of motor- or bicycles.
