15) FINAL CHECKS:
A) Ensure that all fasteners are in place and secure.
B) Walk on the assembled system, checking for any undue movement.
C) Remove any debris and metal chips.
D) Ensure that the level and slope has not shifted during installation.
E) Check that all handrail ends are covered (either with loops or with end caps).
F) CONGRATULATIONS! Your EZ-ACCESS
®
Modular Ramp System is assembled.
16) PERIODIC MAINTENANCE AND SAFETY:
A) Caution should be used at all times. Proper maintenance and upkeep to the ramp
surface is vital.
B) IMPORTANT: USE ONLY WITH A QUALIFIED HELPER.
C) Always use your lap belt.
D) It is important that you refer to your equipment’s Owner Guide for the proper
degree of incline/decline and chair direction before attempting ramp use. Never
exceed its recommendations.
E) Periodically check and tighten any loose fasteners to ensure safety.
F) At all times, keep the ramp clear of dirt, leaves, and other debris that may
accumulate on the surface. Simply sweeping the ramp or using a garden hose
will usually suffice, but, if needed, a damp cloth or soft brush with soap and water
can be used (avoid alkaloid detergents
). Rinse well and use extra caution
when the ramp surface is wet.
G) If ramp surface is covered with ice and/or snow, remove before use. Snow
accumulation should be shoveled and the tread surface swept clean. Calcium
Chloride salt substitute may be used to melt snow or ice accumulation on the
ramp, however, after the snow and/or ice threat has cleared, be sure to clean the
tread surface with soap and water (avoid alkaloid detergents
) to remove Calcium
Chloride residue. Rinse well and use extra caution when the ramp surface is
wet.
H) Do not play on or near ramp.
I) Do not use handrails or ramp to support planters, decorations, etc.
J) Ramp surface may become slippery when wet.
K) If any part of the ramp is damaged or loose, DO NOT USE UNTIL REPAIRS
CAN BE MADE BY A CERTIFIED INSTALLER OR OTHER QUALIFIED
PERSON.
