PERSONAL SAFETY
CAUTION! Wear protective equipment approved by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) or
American National Standards Institute (ANSI) when using the ramp.
1. Dress properly, wear protective equipment. Use ear, eye, face, foot, hand, and head
protection. Always wear ANSI approved impact safety goggles, which must provide both
frontal and side protection. Protect your hands with suitable gloves. Protect your head from
falling objects by wearing a hard hat. Wear ANSI approved earplugs. Protective, electrically
non-conductive clothes and non-skid footwear are recommended when working. Wear steel-
toed boots to prevent injury from falling objects.
2. Control the ramp, personal movement and the work environment to avoid personal injury or
damage to the ramp. Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use your common sense.
3. Keep articles of clothing, jewellery, hair, etc., away from moving parts to avoid entanglement.
4. Do not operate any machine / tool when tired or under the influence of drugs,
alcohol or medications.
5. Do not overreach when operating. Proper footing and balance enables better control in
unexpected situations.
6. Use clamps, straps or other practical ways to support or secure the ramp to a stable
platform. Holding the ramp by hand or against your body is not stable and may lead to loss
of control and injury.
SPECIFIC SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING! All persons not involved in the loading process must stand clear of the loading ramp and
truck / trailer. Make sure no pets are nearby.
WARNING! Do not exceed the ramp’s maximum load capacity of 1,500 lb.
1. Check for damaged parts. Before using the ramp, any part that appears damaged should
be carefully checked to determine that it would operate properly and perform its intended
function. Replace or repair damaged ramps immediately, and tighten any loose hardware.
2. Make proper ground contact and a proper contact point on the vehicle or trailer being loaded
onto. Use your ramp on a solid, level, flat, dry surface. Make sure that the tongue edge fully
contacts the vehicle.
WARNING! Remove tailgate before loading onto a pick-up truck.
3. Always use safety straps to securely fasten the ramp to the vehicle. Straps will help to
prevent the ramp from slipping off of the vehicle.
4. Keep the ramp clean. Before each use, clean dirt, oil, or any debris off of the ramp.
5. Make certain that no persons or pets are under the ramp or vehicle during loading.
6. Be aware of dynamic loading. Sudden load movement may briefly exceed the load capacity
causing product failure.
7. Carefully roll or winch equipment up or down the ramp. Never drive or ride your equipment
while loading or unloading.
8. Make sure that the ramp is aligned with the wheels of the equipment being
loaded or unloaded.
9. Always load or unload on a solid, level surface with the vehicle in gear, the parking brake
engaged, and the engine of the vehicle is turned off.
10. Make sure the wheels of the equipment being loaded or unloaded are centered on the ramp.
