INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
1. Place ramp top lip securely on loading surface. Ramps may scratch loading surface.
2. Center ramps on loading surface. When using two ramps, align the ramps with the center of the wheels of the vehicle being loaded/unloaded. Check the distance between the ramps and make sure the distance at the ground is equal
to the distance at the loading surface (ramps are parallel).
3. With ramps properly spaced and aligned, attach one tie down strap to each ramp (strap should be attached to the center of the third ramp rung/tread from the loading surface. Attach the other end of the strap to a structural frame
member of the transport vehicle.

WARNINGS
• For best results, use type Alkaline AA-Cell batteries
• Install only new batteries of the same type in your product
• Failure to insert batteries in the correct polarity, as indicated in the battery compartment, may shorten the life of the batteries or cause batteries to leak
• Do not mix old and new batteries
• Do not mix Alkaline, Standard (Carbon-Zinc) or Rechargeable (Nickle Cadmium) or (Nickel Metal Hydride) batteries
• Do not dispose of batteries in fire
INSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE:
For prolonged life and efficiency, it is neccessary periodically to inspect and perform preventative maintenance on your ramp as follows:
1. Inspection: Any battery may leak caustic solutions or gases which can corrode the inside of your battery housing. You should remove the batteries at least once a month and visually inspect the inside of the housing for signs of corrosion.
2. Separate Storage of Batteries: If your ramp(s) is used infrequently, e.g., once a month or less, it is recommended to remove the batteries and store them separately. This helps guard against corrosion and may also prolong battery life.
3. Maintenance: Place a small amount of petroluem jelly on all the threads and rubber housing seal every six months.
