DON'T STEP ON IT!
DON'T OVER LOAD IT!
USING THE LOADHANDLER
®
Never use any part of the LOADHANDLER
®
as
a step to climb into or out of the pick-up - it may
damage you, your truck or your LOADHANDLER
®
.
Check your maximum allowable Gross Vehicle
Rate or (GVWR). You will usually find it on the
same sticker or plate as your recommended tire
pressures. Look on your door posts, the edge of
both doors, or on the inside of your glove
compartment door. Always weigh your vehicle
after loading to make sure you are not exceeding
your allowable Gross Vehicle Weight.
Never overload your truck. It is illegal and
may cause severe damage to your vehicle
and your LOADHANDLER
®
.
Take care of your LOADHANDLER
®
. It will save
you a lot of work.
If the handle is hard to crank, you can lubricate
the bearing with a silicone spray (or WD-40)
where the bar passes through the bearing. If
you lubricate the bearing, periodically check
to ensure that it remains clean.

PASS LONG STRAP THRU HINGE GAP. (BEST
DONE WITH TAILGATE LOWERED.)
Feed the rear strap through the hinge gap
between the tailgate and the truck and attach
it to the front strap buckle as shown. Do not
overtighten the strap.
Do this on both the Driver's side and the
Passenger's side.
Loosen the Bumper Tie Down Strap, hook the
flat hook onto the bottom of the truck bumper
and pull tight. (Bumper Tie Down is utilized only
when unloading. It holds tailgate down.)
Check to see that the Drive Slot is outside the
edge of the tailgate.
If the Dragsheet is not centered across the truck,
unwind it from the Roller and center it as
required.
If you have an ordinary rubber bed mat, romove
it before using your Loadhandler
