Operation  
Your Aluminum Loading Ramp comes completely assembled. It is important that you read the entire  
manual to become familiar with the product BEFORE you use the Loading Ramp.  
Warning:  
All persons not involved in the loading process must stand clear of the  
Loading Ramp. ESPECIALLY KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. At least one assistant is  
required to safely use this ramp.  
Warning:  
Warning:  
Warning:  
Never exceed the 1200 Lb. maximum capacity (combined Ramps). Load the  
vehicle slowly. Do not drive a load onto the vehicle.  
Make certain the vehicle you are attaching the Loading Ramp to has its engine  
off, its transmission in gear or park, and its emergency brake engaged.  
Before attempting to use this product, make sure the Ramp is completely open  
and both sides are laying flat on the tailgate and that the Safety Chains and  
hooks are correctly in place.  
Note: Walking up or down the Ramp is not recommended. If you must walk on the Ramp,  
read and adhere to all safety warnings and instructions provided in this instruction manual.  
1.  
Make certain that the tailgate the Ramp will sit on is dry and clean. Set the tongue of the  
Ramp on the tailgate. The tailgate must be strong enough to support the Loading Ramp and  
any weight placed onto the Loading Ramp. Stretch the Chain (1) on each side of the Ramp  
up into the inside of the truck bed. Attach both Chains (1) to a secure location on the truck  
bed. Truck beds will usually have built in hooks or grommets for securing the Chain. The  
Chains (1) should be taut so that the Ramp’s tongue can not slip off of the tailgate-see  
Figure 1.  
2.  
Very slowly, push the vehicle that you wish to load up onto the Loading Ramp. Get help from  
your assistant(s). Never sit on a vehicle while the vehicle is being moved up or down the  
ramp.  
Caution: If walking up or down the ramp, be extremely careful of your footing.  
Only walk on the innermost vertical beams. Never attempt to walk on the outside  
edge of the Ramp.
