The Fun Mover:
Depending on which model Funmover you have, it will either have a liftgate or
two loading ramps. Both types will be described in this section. For your safety,
please keep anyone not involved in loading the cargo area away from the liftgate
area.
A. BEFORE YOU LEAVE
1. Walk around the vehicle, checking for anything left behind or obstructing
vehicle movement.
2. Insure that all vehicles, supplies and equipment are properly tied down and
secured for travel.
3. Always keep the cargo area ventilated.
4. Always shut off the fuel supply to the vehicles you transport.
5. Double-check that the rear cargo door is closed, latched and that loading
ramps (if so equipped) are properly stowed and locked in place.
6. Make sure that the door is secured in the upright position and that the latch
pins are pushed through their respective holes on both sides of the vehicle.
7. Always use a spotter to help maneuver the vehicle when backing up or
negotiating in tight areas.
8. Refer to Chapter 5 “Campground Information” for further information.
B. THE LIFTGATE
1. Make sure that you are completely familiar with the safe operation of the
liftgate before beginning.
2. Always have the motorhome engine running when using the liftgate.
Have the transmission set in PARK with the Emergency Brake ON.
3. Make sure all protective guards and covers are in place before operating.
4. Never use the liftgate if it fails to operate correctly, or makes unusual noises.
5. Never load the liftgate with more than the maximum capacity, which is rated at
1600 lbs.
6. Never use the liftgate to transport people.
7. Cargo should be loaded as close to the center of the platform as possible and
centered from side to side.
8. Keep hands and feet away from all pinch points.
9. Cargo should be loaded only from the rear of the platform, not the side.
10. NEVER drive with the liftgate down.
