are observed:
•
Load and unload the Gearboss TranSPORT cart from a loading dock if possible.
•
If a ramp is used, it should slope no more than 20 degrees (or 36%):
•
If a ramp is used, make sure there are enough people to safely push the loaded cart up the ramp.
Example: A cart loaded with 500 lbs. of gear would require 235 lbs. of push to roll up a 20 degree
ramp. At least 3 people would be required to do the job safely.
•
Secure the Gearboss TranSPORT cart inside the truck.
•
Due to its pneumatic tires, severe road conditions could cause a loaded cart to bounce radically.
Blocking and strapping the cart will help prevent damage to the cart or the load.
If the cart is loaded with equipment for a long road trip, the following is recommended:
•
Wood blocking from the truck floor the the cart frame
•
Heavy duty ratchet strap(s), mounted low on the cart, anchored to the truck wall

Padding between the cart and the truck wall to limit damage to paint or fabric wrap.
