Make sure the ramp is completely open.
•
Make sure the tailgate the ramp will sit on is dry and clean.
•
Sit the tongue (angled lip) of the ramp on the tailgate, stretch the safety chain on each side of the ramp
up into the inside of the truck bed, attach the hook on each safety chain to a secure location on the
inside of the truck bed. The safety chains should be tight
so that the ramp’s tongue cannot slip off of
the tailgate.
•
Very slowly, push the vehicle that you wish to load so that the front tires are on the ramp without
moving the tongue resting on the tailgate.
•
Make sure no persons or pets are near or under the ramp or truck. Have an assistant monitor the ramp
tongue for slippage on the tailgate as you slowly move the vehicle into the truck bed.
•
Remove the ramp, fold it up and secure it with the safety chains and hooks.
WARNING: Contact between the tongue (angled lip) of the ramp and the tailgate of
the vehicle may result in damage to the vehicle’s body finish.
