How Tight Does The Anti-Rattle Device On A Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack Need To Be

Question:

I bought a Kuat Transfer V2 - 2-bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4 and 2 from etrailer.com which I am happy with. My ? is how tight do I have to tighten the rack into the hitch? I can continue to tighten with the tool that came with the rack long after it seems very sturdy..

When tightening the anti-rattle device of your Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # KU74FR you'll want to tighten it until the bike rack no longer moves inside of the trailer hitch. When pressing on the bike rack the vehicle should move but the rack will won't budge in the hitch. Brad shows this in the attached video below at the 7:35 minute mark.
