“natural resting position,” the QMS can be secured firmly, and
will slide no further.
Tightening the Straps. Now comes the moment of truth:
the QMS is positioned, the suction cups compressed, the tie-
down points are determined, and the mounting hooks angles
are adjusted as necessary.
1. Loop each tie-down strap through the its
corresponding opening in the top and side of the
QMS , through the steel mounting clip, and plastic
buckle. On the buckle, the strap must enter from
beneath, loop up and over the guide, then exit
from beneath as well.
2. The tie-down buckles can face either
toward or away from the QMS box, but for conve-
nience and appearances sake, choose a common
direction that allows you to tighten them as
directly as possible.
3. Make sure that straps align perpendicular
from any curves (such as wheel well ridges). With
the strap at 90 degrees relative to a curvature, it
can shift no further laterally and will retain strap
tension.
. 4. Take up the slack from all four tie-downs
so there is enough tension to keep the straps in
place, but don’t pull them home just yet.
If the QMS is positioned vertically, like on a side window,
start with the top straps first, tightening them only to the
point where firm resistance is met—then stop. The final ten-

Caution: The tie-down straps and the steel hooks are
quite strong. The sheet metal that forms the lips of your
wheel well, door or hatch may deform or bend under the
tension of an over-tightened tie-down strap.
