Good product, needs some tweaking for my setup

I picked up this bin transporter a few weeks ago and originally wanted to return it. Out of the box it didn't work on my setup. Got this for my Polaris Ranger similar to the product pictured and immediately realized my hitch receiver was too short. I did other things and then came back to it and figured out how it works. Firstly, as the description says, you will need an adapter if your hitch receiver is too high or too low. Mine was too low (about 10 inches I think) and also the Ranger drawer was too far back to actually stand the bin upright. Solution: I bought a double hitch adapter that extends the receiver by about 30cm or more. 4 inches to allow enough room to stand the container upright. This issue has been resolved. Next: Important note for waste bag owners: the chute you use to lift the bag is too narrow for this conveyor. I have both WMs and regular bags and have found that regular bags have a 5 3/4" cartridge, WMs only 5 1/4". Not sure if this is the standard but what I found. The conveyor "hook" that attaches to the transport shaft is 5 3/4 inches long. So if you're using a WM you'll need to trim it down a bit. I used a hacksaw to remove 1/4" from each side and all is well now. The only thing to note is that as other reviewers have said, you use the top of the bag for transport need to secure. I use a ratchet strap. This keeps it from "hanging up" and bouncing around which can result in a hole in your bag. One final note: if you have a Jeep Wranger this will work if you have one Have a spare tire as it doesn't clean the tire enough to get it up. Bag. Just for your information. I've attached some photos for better illustration. In the first photo, the final installation without a carry bag. The second is a comparison between normal bags and WM bags, and the third shows the whole setup with a ratchet strap.
