Ramp Manual Operation
If you experience power or equip-
ment failure, the ramp can be
manually stowed and deployed.
The RA500 must be manually
operated by an attendant.
The RA500 is equipped with a
cable-activated manual release
system and a oval-shaped hand
hold slot in the platform for
manual operation (see Figure C
and E).
The safety precautions addressed
in the Ramp Power Operation
section apply to manual opera-
tion of the ramp also. Read and
become familiar with all ramp
safety precautions.

es (unlocks) the ramp platform
assembly drive chain to allow the
platform to be manually extended
or retracted as required. A T-
handle is provided on the release
cable for activation of the manual
release system (details follow).
After manually extending or
retracting the platform assembly,
it is extremely important that the
cable-activated manual release is
positively re-engaged to secure
(lock) the platform assembly
before loading a passenger or
continuing vehicle use (details
provided). Failure to re-engage
and secure the platform may
result in unintended ramp
movement, which may result
in serious bodily injury and/or
property damage.

4. Verify mechanism is disen-
gaged (unlocked).
5. Carefully move the platform
in or out to desired location
using the platform Hand Hold
(see Figure E).
Note: Minimal physical effort is
required to manually operate the
ramp. Slow steady motion results
in the least resistance and easy
operation. The faster you attempt
to manually operate the ramp, the
greater the resistance.
