ATTACHMENT INSTRUCTIONS
MITI-RHINO "HRV" SERIES VEHICLE IMMOBILIZERS
HRV Models are designed to fit all sub compact, compact, standard vehicles and light trucks including vehicles with extra wide tires and rims. The ROTATING tire stop with indexing tabs, located on the inner side of the outer Immobilizer arm provides adjustment which enables the Immobilizer to be affixed to almost any wheel. Ideal for off road vehicles and RV's.
With little practice your MITI-RHINO Vehicle Immobilizer can be securely attached to a vehicles wheel in 30-60 seconds or less. Bi-directional stand design provides for attachment to either the,
front or rear of a wheel, left or right wheel, front or back wheel. As vehicle design may limit installation to a specific wheel your MITI-Rhino immobilizer's design will provide you maximum flexibility and function.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
CAUTION: Make sure traffic area is clear of traffic before attempting attachment!
1. Place your MITI-RHINO Immobilizer on the ground with the bolt tube facing away from the vehicle. Insert the Secur-Key into the bolt tube, push in while rotating the key until the Secur-Bolts
machined head indexes into the key. Rotate the Secur-Key counter clock-wise until you are able to fully open the inner immobilizer jaw. Leave the key in place.

2. Check to insure that the dome will fit down flush with the wheel, wheel trim disk or hub cap. If not you may have to remove the wheel trim disk or hubcap. Rarely will this have to done.
3. Set the rotating tire stop in place for either standard\narrow tire width or extra wide tire width. Rotating stop is found on top of welded affixed tire stop which is located on the inner side of
the outer immobilizer arm.
FOR NARROW OR SMALL TIRES; Lift and rotate the rotating tire stop so the looped portion is in the closest position next to the dome assembly. Be sure to index the rotating tire stop onto affixed stop.
FOR WIDE OVERSIZED OR LARGE TIRES AND WHEELS; Simply lift and rotate the rotating tire stop so the looped portion is next to the bolt box in the farthermost position from the dome assembly. Be sure to index the rotating tire stop onto the affixed stop. For additional security you may wish to padlock the stop in place and too the affixed stop through the loop at the end. This will aid in deterring attempt of forcible removal.

4. Pick up Immobilizer with both hands, or as an alternative, place the bottom of the stand on the ground or pavement directly in front of the wheel you wish to attach the immobilizer to. Then
follow steps 5, 6 and 7.

5. While holding the Immobilizer arms open, slide the inner immobilizer arms tip along the inside of the tire until you feel the tip fall into place between the wheel and the wheels backing plate or wheel drum. Visually check or feel with fingers to insure that the immobilizers inner arm's tip is in place and
engaged within the inner wheel. If the inner immobilizer arm's tip is not properly engaged or is merely resting on the tire the Immobilizer cannot be properly installed. The tip must be indexed
into the wheel between the wheels backing plate or wheel drum ant the wheel.

6. Engage outer dome against the outer wheel or hub cap as you perform the above procedure. Adjust the dome to properly center on the wheel as you bring it into position. Note; The tension spring will aid in the attachment process.

7. When the immobilizer is properly in position hold it in place while you tighten the Secur-Bolt. Remember to turn the Secur-Bolt clock-wise until the inner immobilizer arm and outer immobilizer
dome is snugly attached to the wheel. It is normal for the self centering guide located on the inner side of the outer arm to dent in the tire at point of contact, this will not damage the tire.

CAUTION: BE SURE TO TIGHTEN BOLT UNTIL DOME MAKES POSITIVE CONTACT WITH WHEEL OR HUB CAP. THE TIRE STOP ON THE INNER SIDE OF THE OUTER ARM IS DESIGNED TO PRESS IN AT THE TIRE, DENTING IN THE FLEXIBLE RUBBER, PREVENTING SIDE TO SIDE MOVEMENT OF THE IMMOBILIZER. MERELY TIGHTENING THE SECUR-BOLT UNTIL THE STOP MAKES CONTACT AGAINST THE TIRE, LEAVING A GAP BEHIND THE DOME MAY ENABLE THE IMMOBILIZER TO BE REMOVED BY DEFLATION OF THE TIRE OR BY INSERTION OF A PRY BAR. DO NOT OVER TIGHTEN AS YOU MAY DAMAGE HUB CAP OR YOUR MITI-RHINO BOOT. A SNUG FIT OF THE DOME AGAINST THE WHEEL OR HUB CAP IS SUFFICIENT AND PROPER.

Remove Secur-Key, Insert padlock in bolt tube for additional security. Optional Padlock cover available to fit your lock. Optional cover prevents use of bolt cutters on padlock shank. You should check the lock to insure it has properly locked. If the padlock will not lock check for debris or other and repeat the locking procedure. Replace the padlock if found defective. If using additional padlock at rotating stop use keyed alike locks. 8. Fill out and attach the Immobilization Notice to the vehicle. Place notice in plain view and in a conspicuous location.

9. REMOVAL: Reverse the above procedure.
CAUTION
1. BEFORE ATTACHMENT: Make sure there is no oncoming traffic before attempting installation of immobilizer Boot.

2. Be sure you use the proper Immobilizer for the application, HIO/H12/H14 fits Sub Compact, Compact, Standard, size Vehicles and Light Trucks. HRV12/HRV14 Fit RVs, and other vehicles with extra wide tires. Semi-Tractor & Large Truck models are also available. Refer to brochure

3. Remove light gauge hub caps for secure installation directly to wheel. Make sure inner immobilizer arm tip is securely engaged and indexed into wheel between the wheels backing plate or wheel drum. Make sure that the dome maintains a centered position on the outer wheel during the tightening process and that the dome is tight against wheel or hub cap.
