3) Stand clear of the ramp. Make sure that the driver of the vehicle can see you. Direct the driver to bring the
back of the vehicle/trailer into contact with the rubber bumpers. The ramp lip must overlap the vehicle
bed by at least 4 inches (10.2cm).
4) Make sure that the vehicle is in park, that the engine is turned off, and that the parking brake is set. Chock
the wheels of both the vehicle and the trailer. If you have questions about requirements for chocking
wheels, contact your state occupational safety and health (OSH) agency. An interactive map of these
United States with links to state OSH offices is provided online at https://www.osha.gov/dcsp/osp/.
5) Attach the ramp chains to the vehicle without slack. Chock ramp wheels.
6) Slightly open the release valve by pushing the top of the lever towards the ramp. The ramp will lower
slowly. When the ramp rests on the vehicle bed, fully open the valve by pivoting the lever away from the
ramp. By fully opening the valve, the ramp lip is entirely supported by the trailer/vehicle bed. This allows
the ramp to move with the truck/trailer bed during loading or unloading operations.
7) When loading/unloading operations are finished, close the release valve by moving the lever back to
home position (vertical). Move the pump handle back-and forth to lift the ramp off of the vehicle bed.
Keep moving the handle until the lip is 2 inches or more above the bed.
8) Disconnect the safety chains. The ramp wheels should remain chocked whenever the ramp is parked.
HYDRAULIC PUMP: SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
The ramp uses a hand-operated hydraulic pump to control up-and-down movement. With the
lowering lever in the closed position, moving the pump handle back-and-forth causes the hydraulic
cylinders to extend. Both cylinders are pinned to the landing gear and to the underside of the ramp. As
the cylinders extend, they push the movable part of the landing gear away from the ramp.
Lower the ramp by pushing the top of the release lever towards the ramp. Stop the lowering process
by releasing the lever. The lever automatically returns to the home position. The ramp can also be
rapidly lowered by pulling the top of the release lever away from the ramp. However, this should only be
done if the lip of the ramp is already in contact with the bed of a truck or trailer. Close the valve by
returning the release lever to the home position. See USING THE RAMP diagram on p. 3-4. The lever must
be in the closed position to raise the ramp.
BLEEDING AIR FROM THE CIRCUIT
If the ramp does not lower, a feature called a velocity fuse might be closing. The fuses are safety-
enhancing mechanisms that prevent the ramp from collapsing if hydraulic pressure is lost. A velocity fuse
is coupled to each cylinder. Air trapped in the hydraulic circuit might cause 1 or both of the fuses to
close. When a fuse closes, the ramp cannot lower until air is removed from the circuit. If you experience
this issue, first try to open the fuses by pumping the handle. Make sure that the release lever is in home
position and pump the handle several times. See Release Lever diagram on p. 3. Then, try to lower the
ramp by pressing the release lever forward (towards the ramp). If this approach does not solve the issue,
then air must be bleed from the circuit. Two people should work together to bleed air from the circuit:
1. Lift the ramp with external means to remove the load from the cylinders. For instance, use at least 2
jacks rated to lift the full weight of your ramp. The weight of your ramp is provided in your Specifications
document as well as on label 1153. See Specifications on page 2; Labeling Diagram on p. 11. Brace the
elevated end of the ramp with blocks. Chock both sides of both wheels.
2. Locate the bleeder screw on the base of each cylinder. It looks like a grease zerk.
3. Open the bleeder valve of one cylinder about

turn with a

in. wrench. Hold a rag over
the bleeder valve of the cylinder. The other person should move the handle back and forth just
once. Oil and air will sputter from the valve. Continue this process—pumping the handle once and
watching air bubble out of the bleeder—until no more air escapes. Just a clear stream of oil will flow
from the bleeder. Tighten the screw when you no longer hear and/or see escaping from the bleeder.
4. Perform the bleeding procedure from Step 3 on the other cylinder.
5. When air has been removed from both cylinders, securely tighten the bleeder screws.
