Do not operate this vehicle restraint unless you have been trained and
authorized to do so, and have read and understood all of the safety
information and instructions contained in this manual.
Do not operate this restraint until you have checked its condition.
Report the need for repairs to your supervisor immediately and do not
operate the unit until repairs are made.
Never try to lift or move any part of the vehicle restraint manually.
Keep hands and feet clear of vehicle restraint pinch points.
It is the responsibility of the owner / operator of truck / vehicle to
(whenever possible) exhaust the air from air-ride suspension systems
prior to performing loading or unloading.
Because ICC bars differ in strength and construction, review the need
to use wheel chocks in conjunction with the vehicle restraint.
This vehicle restraint is designed for rear impact guards (RIG)
and rear impact protection (ICC Bar) that follow the Federal
Motor Carrier Safety Administration guidelines (FMCSA
section 571.223 and 571.224) + NHTSA (National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration) guidelines.
