The Fixit Plus includes all the tools necessary to perform basic bike repairs and maintenance, from changing a flat to adjusting brakes and derailleurs. Stainless steel cables and tamperproof fasteners securely attach tools to the stand, while the hanging arms allow pedals and wheels to spin freely while making adjustments. Add a second hanger for double sided access to the tools!

Recommended Base Materials:
Solid concrete is the best base material for installation. To ensure the proper anchors are shipped with your rack, ask your representative which anchor is appropriate for your application. Be sure nothing is underneath the base material that could be damaged by drilling
Be sure to save your tamper-resistant tools for any future maintenance. They are costly to replace.
If you are not attaching an Air kit Prime to your Fixit, proceed to set 4
(A) Lay the Fixit Plus on its side.
(B) Remove one 3/8” carriage bolt, lock nut, and washer.
(C) The guard can then be pushed up and then pulled out.
Set the guard aside.
Secure the Air Kit to the side of the Fixit Plus with the
3/8” threaded stud on the Air Kit and a bonded washer and lock nut inside the Fixit Plus.
Reattach the guard Reference the Fixit Plus setback recommendations and place the upright in the desired location. Use the base as a template to mark anchor locations and drill (4) 3/8” x 3” holes in the concrete with a hammer drill and masonry bit.
Clean up all concrete dust from drilling.

Installation - Continued
Hammer in the (4) 3/8” wedge anchors. Leave at least 1” of exposed threads above the concrete.
Place the Fixit Plus over the anchors, add washers and nuts, and tighten all nuts.
Select the orientation of the bike hanger and use a new razor blade to cut through the decal to reveal the corresponding slot in the Fixit Plus.
Add the 1/2” washer and 1/2” lock nut to the 1/2” x 6” carriage bolt. Insert the assembled hardware, headfirst, into the top of the Fixit Plus. The carriage bolt head will pass through the second plate hole and then slide sideways, so the carriage bolt engages the slot in both plates and bike hanger. Tighten the lock nut and repeat with the other side.
If two bike hangers are used, the carriage bolt will also engage the second bike hanger under the second plate.

Maintenance
All threads for all parts of the pump are right-hand threads. They tighten clockwise, and loosen counter-clockwise
(“righty tighty, lefty loosey”). However, when you are looking top-town at a bolt that threads from underneath, if you move it counter-clockwise from your point of view, you are actually tightening, not loosening, the nut! This has led to some unnecessary breakage of pump parts. Be sure you are looking at the nut with the proper orientation before tightening or loosening.
REMOVING THE AIR KIT FROM THE FIXIT PLUS
(A) Lay the Fixit Plus on its side.
(B) Remove one 3/8” carriage bolt, lock nut, and washer.
(C) The guard can then be pushed up and then pulled out.
Set the guard aside.
REMOVING THE AIR KIT FROM THE FIXIT PLUS
Remove nut attaching the Air Kit to the side of the Fixit
Plus.
Remove the 3/8” nut and penta tamper -proof nut from the underside of the top compartment and lift out the carriage bolts. These are all best removed with a socket wrench, using the extension tool to enable you to reach the nuts.

Add or remove tools by sliding the tool cables through the hole at the end of the cable slot in the Fixit Plus upright.
