SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1. Never overload the ramps. Maximum capacity for your ramp is 800 lbs
(360kg) per ramp; 1600 lbs (720 kg) per pair (all loads must be evenly
distributed).
2. Always use the safety strap to securely fasten the ramp to the vehicle or
trailer. This prevents the ramp from slipping off of the tailgate.
3. Carefully roll or winch equipment up or down the ramp. Never drive or ride
your equipment while loading or unloading.
4. Make sure the ramp is aligned with the wheels of any vehicle being loaded
or unloaded.
5. Always load or unload on a solid, level and stable surface with the vehicle
in gear, the parking/emergency brake on and the engine off.
6. Use as loading ramp only.
7. Ramp surfaces must be clean, dry and free from oil or grease or water.
8. Maximum recommended height of the tailgate that the ramp attaches to
should be no greater than 30 inches (76 cm).
9. Inspect the ramp before each use. Replace the safety strap if the webbing
is frayed or worn. Do not attempt to use a ramp that is damaged in any
way. Do not modify or alter the ramp in any way. Proper care of the ramp
is essential to safety.
10. Proper use of this product is critical to safety. Improper use may result in
personal or property damage which is not covered by your warranty.
11. During use, keep bystanders away from the ramp and load.
12. Maintain a secure footing and do not overreach.
WARNING: TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE,

one of the cross members and
pass the free end through the
loop as shown.

van.
• The tailgate should not be
more than 30" (76 cm) in height

loading.
