UNLOADING
1. Unsecure the unit.
2. Release the locking pin and pull the handle out
until the locking pin engages the hole in the
end of the handle.
3. Roll the unit back until the rear wheels are off
the edge of the tailgate or vehicle bed.
4. Pull downward on the handle, allowing the
unit to slide on the loader. As the unit stops
sliding on the loader, it will pivot on the loader
to an upright position. Gradually counterbal-
ance the unit’s weight by applying an upward
force on the handle. This allows the unit to
settle gently on the wheels, avoiding undue
impact on the unit.
5. Return the handle to the stored position, making
sure the locking pin engages the handle.
6. Replace the battery and reconnect the battery
box plug making certain it is fully engaged.
