OPTIONAL ACCESSORY
1.
If the ramp’s top
lip transition plates are not long enough to fully overlap a secure, unobstructed, level
landing, a SUITCASE® Top Lip Extension (
‘
TLE
’
) is an available option that
increases the standard 3” reach of
the top lip transition plates
to 9”, in many cases, allow
ing the ramp to clear an obstruction to create a
smooth transition. Visit www.ezaccess.com or call 1-800-451-1903 for more information.
Use of the TLE reduces overall ramp weight capacity to 500 lbs. Never exceed weight capacity.
If a secure, unobstructed, level landing cannot be attained, do not use the ramp.
INCLINE CHART
An incline chart is provided below, however, it is intended only as a guideline. Before use, refer to your mobility
equipment's owner guide for acceptable ramp usage, including proper slope/incline, chair direction, etc.; never
exceed its recommendations.
TO ESTABLISH THE PROPER RAMP LENGTH
1.
Determine the incline that your chair is designed to climb.
2.
Measure the rise (distance from top step, porch, van, etc. to the
ground).
3.
Refer to Incline Chart to find proper ramp length.
At any incline, use ramp only with a qualified helper and
always use your lap belt.
