Storage of Steps
1. Retract leg extensions, if desired.
2. Lift up SolidStep® to its stored position and make sure the transport lock has been engaged.
Adjust Leg extension
The leg extension is secured with a quick release clevis pin. Adjustments can be made to the leg extensions
in 1" increments by extending or retracting the inner leg for the optimal angle and to adjust for the ground
surface angle.
1. To extend the inner leg (Fig. 2B):
A. Remove the quick-release clevis pin (Fig. 2A) from the tube and the slot in the angle.
B. Extend the inner leg to the ground and at an angle so the step treads are parallel to the ground
and level.
C. Reinsert the quick release clevis pin into the tube and slot closest to where the inner leg and tube
(Fig. 2C) meet.
2. To retract the inner leg:
A. Remove the quick-release clevis pin from the tube and slot.
B. Retract the inner leg.
C. Reinsert the quick-release clevis pin into the tube and slot.

2. Once the latch mechanism is in the correct position, tighten the bolts.
NOTE: To ensure control of the SolidStep, keep a firm hold on the steps while testing the functionality.
3. Once the transport lock has been adjusted, test its functionality by shaking the step assembly to
simulate road vibration.
4. Engage and disengage the transport lock (Fig.4A) to ensure the latch flanges do not scrape against the
doorframe.
Do NOT over-tighten the bolts. Over-tightening the bolts may damage the threads or cause the bolt
heads to break o.
