FEATURES & MODELS
The Borum Industrial Portable Truck Ramp Set is designed for maintenance and servicing work
on trucks, buses and forklifts allowing easy and safe access to the undercarriage of vehicles. Easy
and safe to use with a 700mm incline and 500mm of horizontal deck with safety flange to prevent
fork truck from rolling off the deck. These robust ramps weigh just under 80kg each and are fitted

wide steel truck ramps feature non-skid bases and non-slip traction plates to keep the ramps and
their load in place. Handle retracts for out of the way safety and storage. Sold in pairs.

OPERATION
Raising Vehicle
1.
Always align the centre of the two ramps with the tyres of vehicle.
2.
Ensure that the wheels to be driven on the ramps are positioned straight forward in alignment
with the ramps.
3.
After positioning the truck ramps, keep the ramp handle in lowest position in order to lower the
base to surface. The rubber padded base will prevent ramps movement while vehicle is being
driven onto or off the ramps.
Note: Must keep the handle in lowest position in order to lower the base to contact
with the floor/surface.
4.
Another person, standing clear from vehicle path, should observe and guide the vehicle operator
when ascending and descending the ramps.
5.
Never accelerate or apply brakes suddenly. Proceed slowly and cautiously.
6.
Once the vehicle reaches the top of the ramps, apply brakes only to prevent over-travel.
7.
Place the vehicle in neutral. Release brakes; vehicle should not move.
8.
Turn the engine off, set parking brake. Place vehicle in park (or in reverse gear for manual
transmission).
9.
Get out of the vehicle and securely chock the remaining wheels on the ground.
10.
Be sure that both tyres are properly positioned on the ramp’s support platform.
11.
Using caution in positioning your body clear of danger, shake vehicle sideways and endways to
be sure that vehicle and ramps are stable.
12.
Check that ramps have not become damaged or bent during loading.
NOTE: RATED CAPACITY IS PER PAIR ONLY!
TRUCK RAMPS MUST BE USED IN PAIR AND USE ONLY ONE PAIR PER
VEHICLE.
