Step 1: Review the different configurations and decide which one is for you

The MOD Snap-On Bench is a modular product that can be fitted in 4 different configurations, so before you start take a look at the different options below and decide which one is right for you.

A. Padded Seat Only.

B. Padded Seat With Backrest.

C. Padded Seat With Backrest, Handlebars and Arm Rest

D. Padded Seat With Backrest, Handlebars and Arm Rest

Step 2: Decide on the fore / aft position of the seat.

• The MOD Snap-On Bench can be fitted in 2 different fore / aft positions depending on the bike it’s fitted to.
• In most cases you will use the flat position with the front edge of the seat in line with the bottom plate as shown in the pictures above.
• If you are fitting to a MOD Easy or using the 2 seat set up on the MOD Cargo, you will need to use the rear position shown below.

Step 3: Assemble seat components.

• Assemble the relevant components for the configuration you have chosen as shown below and tighten the 8 bolts on the underside of the seat using a 4mm allen wrench. 
• If you are fitting the armrest you will also need to remove the bolts on the back of the seat rest and re-attach them with the arm rest bracket underneath the bottom 2.
