manual abstract
1. Maximum weight limit is 800 pounds. 2. Read and follow all instructions before use. 3. Do not use if ramp is damaged or unstable. 4. Ramp is shipped fully assembled. To separate ramp into two halves for easy stowage and transportation, remove bolts and install coil tension safety pin as follows: a. With ramp positioned as shown in (DIAGRAM 1), insert the coil tension safety pin into each hinge assembly and join ramps together before use. NOTE: Spring section of pin should be on the underside (non-treaded side) of ramp. b. WARNING: Ramp may be separated for use when loading/unloading unoccupied mobility equipment. c. WARNING: When used with occupied mobility equipment, use ramp as one unit (ensure both halves are joined with pins or bolts firmly installed before use). 5. Place ramp on landing in the folded position, making sure that the top lip (labeled TOP) is resting securely on the landing (DIAGRAM 2). 6. Unfold ramp and center on landing. 7. For ease in carrying and stowage, ramp can be disconnected and carried in two sections. (When pins are not in use, store in one side of hinge or on the underside of ramp by inserting into the gap behind the top I-beam.) 8. WARNING: Ensure that the top lip is secure before using ramp. We recommend attaching the ramp temporarily to the landing using the provided clevis pins (drill 1/4” hole in landing) or semi-permanently using screws through the pre-drilled holes at the top of each section. To prevent ramp from becoming dislodged during use, ensure that the top lip overlaps the resting surface as far as possible. 9. WARNING: The surface holding the top lip needs to be substantial; make sure that the surface and supporting structure is of sound construction. 10. WARNING: Use ramp only with a qualified helper and always use lap belt. 11. WARNING: The ramp shown in diagrams (below) is the 5-ft length. To select the ramp length, an incline chart is provided on the reverse side of this document. However, it is intended only as a guideline. Refer to your equipment's (wheelchair or scooter) Owner Guide for the proper degree of incline/decline and chair direction before attempting ramp use. Never exceed its recommendations. 12. SAFETY & MAINTENANCE: Regularly check ramp for damage, and check and tighten any loose fasteners. Keep ramp surface clear of ice, snow, dirt, leaves, and other debris. For snow/ice, remove accumulation and sweep the surface clean. To remove dirt, leaves, and other debris, sweeping the surface or using a garden hose will usually suffice, but, if needed, use a damp cloth or soft brush with non- alkaloid detergent and water. Rinse well and use extra caution if ramp surface is wet. 13. OPTIONAL FEATURE: Increase the usefulness of the SUITCASE® Advantage Series® Ramp with the Top Lip Extension (TLE). This optional extension increases the standard 3” lip to become 9”, allowing the ramp to clear the rear bumper of SUVs and vans by simply attaching to the top lip of the ramp (DIAGRAM 4). TLE is for use with unoccupied mobility equipment only and, when used, reduces the overall ramp weight capacity to 500 pounds. Contact your local retailer or visit for details.
