There are two pressure switches on the

pull. As you press the switch on the

• A prop rod on the left side of the tail-
gate is available to help support
heavy loads.
• Position the rod over the upper
slotted stud on the body side panel to
support flat loads or anytime you are
operating the vehicle with the tailgate
in the down position.
• Slightly lift the tailgate, and then posi-
tion the prop rod using the lower slot-
ted stud to raise and support the tail-
gate approximately six degrees in
order to help support long loads like
4x8 building materials.
