6.

 

Keeping clear of the platform’s path, raise the platform until the kick 
flap is horizontal to the vehicle’s cargo bed. 

Note:

 the kick flap will 

automatically fold to the horizontal position when the platform is lifted 
from the ground. 

7.

 

Rotate the platform flap over the platform center, fold the platform 
center to the vertical position, and press the platform towards the 
vehicle to securely latch the platform into position. 

8.

 

Adjust the platform height using the platform switch until the kick flap is 
horizontal to the cargo bed and the vehicle license plate is clearly visible 
to a driver in the rear. 

9.

 

Retract drop legs and secure pins. 
 

Lowering Operation: 

1.

 

It is recommended that you install and uninstall the LiftGator on a hard, 
even surface such as asphalt or cement. 

2.

 

Before lowering the LiftGator, each stabilizer (with skates DETACHED) 
must be deployed to the ground by pulling the stabilizer pin, dropping 
the leg, and resetting the stabilizer pin. Preload each stabilizer by 
lowering the stabilizer legs until the stabilizer foot is securely on the 
ground. 

3.

 

Using the auto latch found on the right side of the platform, unfold the 
platform center to the horizontal position and rotate the front flap 180 

degrees to extend the platform.

 

4.

 

Locate the switch behind the passenger side stabilizer and press the 
“down” or “up” button until the kick flap rests horizontally on the cargo 
bed. 

5.

 

Carefully transfer the load from the cargo bed onto the LiftGator’s 
platform. Ensure the load is centrally located on platform center and as 
far forward, towards the hitch, as possible. 

WARNING: Elevated objects run the risk of falling from the platform and causing 

serious injury, or even death.
