General
Please read this user manual carefully before the first use. It contains all the important information about the functions and use of the car ramp. Pay special attention to the safety instructions.
The safety and functionality of the car ramp has been tested with the Scewo BRO electric wheelchair. We cannot guarantee that other loads are suitable for the car ramp. We recommend using the car ramp only with the BRO.
Disposal and Environment
The shipping packaging of the car ramp is made of cardboard and can be recycled. The individual components of the car ramp can be disassembled and recycled once the components are sorted by material. The components can be recycled according to the regulations of the city or municipal administration.
Purpose of Use
This car ramp is designed to load heavy, mobile machinery or wheelchairs ("load") into a vehicle. The car ramp can be adjusted to the height of the vehicle's loading edge. The maximum load capacity for an assembled car ramp (pair) is 190 kg. The ramp must only be used with a minimum angle of 28°. If this angle is not maintained, the load capacity cannot be guaranteed.
Caution
Never use the car ramp to load people, or if someone is on the load!

Configuration | Loading edge height | Technical data | Picture |
|---|---|---|---|
Small car ramp | 450 - 560mm | Length = 96cm Weight = 5.8 kg Transport length = 108 cm |  |
Middle car ramp | 570 - 680mm | Length = 117cm Weight = 6.2 kg Transport length = 119 cm |  |
Large car ramp | 690 - 810mm | Length = 138cm Weight = 6.2 kg Transport length = 98 cm |  |
For stepped trunks there is a small additional plate which is mounted with a hinge (see Additional plate for stepped trunks).
