SAFETY GUIDELINES

Do not operate this skate on inclined ground. The skate must be used only on level,
solid ground. Unanticipated motion will occur as soon as the jack lifts the tyre from
the ground.

Wheel Skates must be used in pairs at either the front or rear of the vehicle.

Do not over load the skate beyond the load rating of 680 kg.

Do not start the vehicle’s engine or drive with the skate in use. Skates are designed
for hand manoeuvring of vehicles only.

Do not use the skate to lift tyres wider than 270 mm.

Ensure the Wheel Skates are free to move and that there are no obstructions in the
area of use.

Ensure there are no obstructions beneath the vehicle when it is to be lowered.

Do not attempt to push the skate over obstacles. They are designed to be used on a
level and smooth surface only.

After lifting be sure to lock the pin in place before operating. Pull the pin out after
finishing and then release the valve.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Place the skate on the floor and
press down on the pedal to
release the pedal lock. Pull out the
lock pin from the frame.

Before operating open the release
valve by turning the hand wheel
counter clockwise. Expand the
skate enough to place around the
tyre and position it so both rollers
contact the tyre tread. To obtain
the best control of the skate while
expanding around the tyre place
your left hand on top of the left
side axle and your right hand in
the centre of the pedal. Close the
release valve by turning the hand
wheel clockwise.

To lift the tyre flip the directional lever up and place foot on to the pedal pressing
with smooth, even strokes. Cycle pedal until the tyre is lifted from the ground 1” or
less. After lifting, the lower the is tyre is to the ground the more stable the skate will
be. After lifting be sure to lock the pin in place before moving. Repeat the process
on the other tyres and manoeuvre the vehicle as required.

To release the skate pull the pin out from the frame and open the valve by turning
the hand wheel slowly counter clockwise. Skate may be removed only when the roll­ers disengage from the tyre.
