Speaker 1: Today we'll be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carrier with tie downs, part number Y04082-2.The Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carriers is a perfect solution for carrying your one kayak on your vehicle's roof rack. This is great for sea, river, recreational, and most fishing kayaks. The Yakima Carrier is going to include two load straps for the center of your kayak and one bow and one stern strap.The Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carriers have a carrying capacity of one kayak with a weight capacity of 80 pounds. The Yakima Kayak Carrier hand rollers make it easy to install your kayak on your vehicle's roof. It's going to make it easy to load from the rear of your vehicle. The same key system lock cores can easily be inserted into your Yakima rollers to prevent any theft or tampering.The Yakima Kayak Carrier can be used with round, square, arrow, elliptical, and most factory cross bars with a minimum cross bar spread of 24 inches.
The Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carrier comes with a limited lifetime warranty and is quick and easy to install. We'll show you how to do that next.We've gone ahead and installed our other three rollers. We're going to show you how to do this back passenger side one since it's all the same. We've got our clamps open here. We're just going to place them around our cross bar.
Then, we can start to tighten it down. We want to face it so that we have access to our lock core if we decide to add that lock core in there and to our knob to unlock our roller. We'll tighten this down. Then, we want to open up our knobs and rotate them so that our rollers will move. Then, we can load up our kayak.Once we have our kayak in place, we can rotate our lever.
We may need to move our roller, and that's going to lock that into place. Now, we're ready to tie down our kayak. Now, before we tie down our kayak, we're going to take our strap keeper. We're just going to place onto our strap, feeding it through. Now, we can take our strap and toss it to the other side keeping our cam on whichever side we want to access.
We'll take our strap underneath our cross bar, and we'll toss it back over to the other side. Once again, we'll take our strap underneath our cross bar. Then, we can feed it through our cam buckle. Make sure to tighten that down, and we'll fold up our strap and put it into our strap keeper. Now, we can repeat that same process for our other strap.Now, to connect our bow and stern straps. We're going to start by taking our buckle strap and feed it through our handle here at the back. We'll then feed it through itself and tighten up the loop. Next, we'll take our anchor strap and feed it through our buckle. We're going to tighten this down as much as we can to make it easier to attach our hook. We want to find a metal surface on our vehicle, no plastic. So, in this case, we're going to use our safety chain loops. We'll hook it on and tighten up our strap and secure down our excess.Now, we're ready to take this out on our test course. Here on our test course, we'll start by goinginaudible 00:03:30. This is going to show up the side to side action, which simulates turning corners or inaudible 00:03:35. Once we get to the alternating speed bumps, we'll see the twisting action. This will simulate hitting a curb or pothole or driving over uneven pavement. Once we get to the full speed bumps, we'll see the up and down action. This will be just like driving in and out of a parking lot, garage, or driveway.That's going to be our complete look at the Yakima HandRoll Kayak Carrier with tie downs, part number Y04082-2.

Review from a similar Yakima HandRoll in Watersport Carriers
I have two vintage 1980s 17 ft. ocean kayaks that I transport on a GMC Yukon. Yakima DeckHands mounted on my vehicle forward roof rack and because of the length of my kayaks Yakima HandRollers mounted to a Yakima LongArm and LongArm extension fitted to my vehicle trailer hitch receiver. These are excellent products that allow me to safely transport both boats side by side. The HandRollers allow me to single handed load and unload. Front of the boats on the HandRollers attached to the LongArm, push from the stern of the kayak and they are easily in place on the top of my Yukon ( a pretty tall SUV). I do recommend these products. They work very well. Much easier than hefting a nearly 60 lb kayak on top to a tall vehicle by hand. 707718
