• For the vehicle that will support the Cargo Carrier, read all pertinent vehicle instructions and warnings provided in the manual. Make sure the vehicle’s engine is OFF, with the parking brake set, before loading or unloading the Cargo Carrier.
• This Cargo Carrier must be attached to a 2’’x2’’ Class III or Class IV hitch receiver. The hitch must be properly installed by a qualified service technician and be certified to support the weight of this Cargo Carrier and its contents (500 Lbs. capacity).
• Use as intended only. Do not modify the Carrier and do not use this product for purposes other than it was designed.
• Do not overload the Cargo Carrier. Never exceed the maximum weight capacity of 500 Lbs.
• When assembly is complete, check and test all vehicle systems, including lights and brakes; make sure no damage occurred during product installation.
• Frequently check the condition of the Cargo Carrier and the vehicle’s hitch receiver. Make sure all components are in good condition. If the Cargo Carrier or hitch receiver becomes damaged through accident, or if any weld damage is noted, the product should be replaced. Check to make sure that all hardware is tightly secured in place. Keep the Cargo Carrier clean.
• Use common sense when working. Stay alert and concentrate when setting up and using the Cargo Carrier.

• While assembling and using the Cargo Carrier, keep the workspace clean and well-lit. Keep spectators and children out of the work area.
• Dress appropriately. Never wear loose-fitting clothing or jewelry when working. Contain long hair, and keep hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts.
• Be aware of the danger of dynamic loading. This situation arises when a load is dropped onto the Carrier, resulting in a short-term excessive load. Dynamic loading can result in damage and failure of the Carrier and/or hitch receiver, and personal injury to the person loading the Carrier.
• Never load people or animals into the Cargo Carrier. Keep children and spectators well clear when loading and using this product.
• Weight inside the Cargo Carrier should be evenly distributed, with heavier items positioned towards the center of the Carrier.
• Note the position of the vehicle’s exhaust pipes before setting up the Cargo Carrier. Make sure exhaust pipes are not in the Cargo Carrier; flammable goods in the Cargo Carrier could catch on fire due to heat from the exhaust. If this risk exists on your vehicle, do not use the Cargo Carrier.
• Do not ride in a vehicle being loaded or unloaded. Load and unload the vehicle slowly, according to manual instructions.
• Do not use if the carrier is higher than 12.5″ from the bottom of the ramp.
• Do not exceed 55 MPH while the carrier is attached.
• Remove the ramp and secure the load before moving.
• This product is not a toy. Do not allow children to play with or near this item.
• Wear ANSI-approved safety goggles and heavy-duty work gloves during use. Prior to transporting a load, make sure the ramp of the carrier is in its upright position and locked in place with the Pins and Lock Pins.
• Both feet of the Carrier’s Ramp must rest flat on a solid, level, and flat surface when loading and unloading an object.
• Maintain product labels and nameplates. These carry important safety information. If unreadable or missing, please contact the customer service team for help.
• Store the Carrier out of reach of children and do not allow people unfamiliar with the Carrier or these instructions to use the Carrier. Use of a carrier by untrained people may not be safe.
• Maintain the Carrier. Check for misalignment or binding of moving parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the Carrier’s operation. If damaged, have the Carrier repaired before use. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained equipment.
