Aligning the lock dock

1. Grab all the Lock Dock components: bottom part, top plate, Allen Key #2.5 and four bolts.
   
2. Place the bottom part of the Lock Dock around the seat tube and slide it down.
   
3. This step is only required for VanMoof X3 and X4 bikes – if you have a VanMoof S3 or S4, skip this step: Remove the adapter from the PowerBank's front side.
   
4. Unfasten the PowerBank straps.
   
5. Grab the PowerBank, and slide it down so that it sits on the cross area between the seat tube and down tube. Push up the Lock Dock up, until the PowerBank's insert fits naturally.
   
6. After making sure that the alignment is correct, remove the PowerBank from the Lock Dock.
   
   
7. Place the Lock Dock top plate onto the bottom part and align the screw hole. Make sure that the Lock Dock stays in position while doing this.
   

Securing the Lock Dock

1. Screw the first bolt into location 1 with Allen key #2.5 to fasten the top plate of the Lock Dock on the bottom part.
   
   Note
   Be careful – knocking the bottom part will push the Lock Dock out of position.
2. Press the bottom part and top plate together to align the bolt hole in position 2.
   Screw the bolt into location 2 with Allen key #2.5 (The bolt should fit in perpendicular to the top plate as shown below)
   
3. Screw in all remaining bolts making sure that the Lock Dock stays in position.
   
4. Make sure the lock pin is not pushed in. If it is, use the provided key to release the lock pin by twisting clockwise then counterclockwise to release the lock pin and remove the key fully.
