Operation
Warning! All persons not involved in the loading process must stand clear of
the loading Ramp.
Warning! Never exceed the 1500 Lb. Maximum. Load vehicle slowly.
Warning! Make sure the vehicle which you are loading into is turned off and
in gear or park, with the emergency brake engaged.
Warning! Make sure the Ramp is completely open and the securing chains
and hooks are correctly in place (see #4 below). Make sure the Ramp is
clean and dry before loading.
1. When folded, the Ramp will be wrapped in the Safety Chains and
Hooks (#2). Release the hooks and unfold the Ramp.
2. Make sure the Ramp is completely open.
3. Make sure the tailgate the ramp will sit on, is dry and clean.
4. Sit the tongue (angled lip) of the Ramp on the tailgate. Stretch the
Safety Chain on each side of the Ramp up into the inside of the truck bed; attach
the hook on each Safety Chain to a secure location on the inside of the truck bed.
The Safety Chains should be taut so that the Ramp’s tongue cannot slip off of the
tailgate.
5. Very slowly, drive or push the vehicle that you wish to load so that the front tires
are on the Ramp without moving the tongue resting on the tailgate.
Caution: When walking up or down the ramp, be extremely careful of your footing.
Only walk on the two innermost vertical beams. Never attempt to walk on the
outside edge of the ramp. Be extremely careful not to get your feet caught be-
tween the horizontal cross braces. Always maintain good balance when walking up
or down the ramp.
6. Make sure no persons or pets are near or under the Ramp or truck. Have an
assistant monitor the Ramp tongue for slippage on the tailgate as you slowly move
the vehicle into the truck bed.
7. Remove the ramp, fold it up and secure it with the Safety Chains and
Hooks (#2).
Warning! Contact between the tongue (angled lip) of the ramp and the
tailgate of the vehicle, may result in damage to the vehicle’s body finish.
