P225 Plywood Carrier Attachment
1.
Remove the two platform braces to allow the platform to drop down into a vertical position.
2.
Attach the two plywood carrier brackets using the existing platform holes and platform stop
hardware as shown below.
3.
For extra load thickness capability, remove the wheels from the platform. Loads can be bolted
using holes provided in the carrier.
4.
Sheets of plywood can be placed on the carrier with either the 4 foot or 8 foot dimension “up.” If
the 8 foot dimension is up (vertical), the weight of the sheets will automatically tilt the stack when
the carrier reaches the top of the track. If the 4 foot dimension is up, more care must be taken to
balance the stack. The worker unloading must tilt the stack into the horizontal plane to slide it out
of the carrier.
5.
Material should be held against the track with a rope fastened to the carrier as shown below. The
loose end is held by the worker above. Keep the rope taut as the load is raised. Raise material
slowly when nearing the top of the track.
