7.
Carefully transfer the load from the ground on to the LiftGator’s
platform. Ensure the load is centrally located on the platform 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.
8.
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.
9.
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.
10.
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.
11.
Retract drop legs and secure them with pins.
12.
Use the hand cranks to raise the stabilizer legs. Once the legs have been
raised, you can use the lever to lower the LiftGator in order to close the
van doors. Once the doors are closed, lift the LiftGator back up in to
position until it snaps back in to locked position.
Lowering Operation:
1.
It is recommended that you load and unload 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
rotating the cranks in the clockwise direction about 10 times or until
resistance can be felt in the crank.
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.
