WARNING
Provide adequate
clearance outside
of vehicle to ac-
commodate ramp.
Failure to do so may
result in serious
bodily injury and/or
property damage.
Ramp Power Operation
The power ramp is attendant operated and activated
by the control switch provided by the vehicle con-
verter (ramp installer). A momentary contact ramp
control switch (center off) will typically be provided
near the driver. The control switch may be part of a
panel providing other features and controls (power
on/off indicators, LED’s, etc.).
Be certain there is
adequate clearance
outside the vehicle
before deploying
the power ramp.
The ramp operator
(attendant) and by-
standers must keep
clear of the area
in which the ramp
operates and clear
of all moving parts.
Attendants must ensure that passengers keep clear
of the area in which the ramp operates. Do not
attempt to grip or hold the ramp or ramp drive arm
assemblies.
If you are an attendant operating the ramp, it is your
responsibility to oversee and/or assist in performing
safe passenger loading and unloading procedures.
Observe your passengers at all times when they are
entering and exiting the vehicle. Attendants must
be aware of any special needs and/or procedures
required for safe transport of wheelchair passengers.
Do not attempt to load or unload a passenger in a
wheelchair or other apparatus that does not
fi
t on
the ramp. Do not exceed the load capacity of the
ramp. Passengers should enter and exit one at a
time. The attendant should not board the ramp with
the passenger except when assistance is required
and the load capacity is not exceeded. Always
return the ramp to the stowed position when not in
use.
CAUTION
Allow ramp to deploy
fully before boarding.
Failure to do so may
result in damage.
Deploy
Gravity Down Drift:
When deploying (unfolding) the ramp, the ramp
pump motor stops running when the ramp reaches
an approximate 45° angle (shut off point). The
ramp continues to slowly lower the remaining dis-
tance by the force of gravity (non-powered).
Allow the ramp to unfold (deploy) fully before
boarding the ramp. Forcing the ramp out or down
during the deploy (unfold) function, or boarding
onto the ramp before it is fully-deployed
may re-
sult in damage
to the ramp and/or drive assembly.
Stow
Gravity Down Drift:
When stowing the ramp and it reaches an approxi-
mate 45° angle (shut off point), gravity lowers the
ramp to the pan (
fl
oor).
Before operating the ramp
, park the vehicle on
a level area, away from vehicular traf
fi
c. Place
the vehicle transmission in “Park” and engage the
parking brake. Meet all other interlock conditions
(as equipped). Activate the vehicle “kneel” system
to lower the vehicle (if so equipped). Lowering the
vehicle reduces the slope of the ramp.
