  1. Park the tow vehicle with the properly hitched tow dolly in line on level ground. Place the gear shift lever in low gear (manual transmission) or in park with the motor off and the parking brake set.
    CAUTION
    Keep children and bystanders clear of loading area (at least 10’ from any part to the tow dolly).
  2. Drive the vehicle-in-tow up to the rear of the tow dolly and stop the tires five feet from the rear edge of the carrying pan.
  3. Remove the tilt locking pin from the tilt cuff located on the underside of the dolly tongue just to the front of the carrying pan. Step on one of the carrying pan ramps to tilt them rearward until the rear edge of the ramps touch the pavement.
  4. Place the tilt pin in an area away from any moving part of the tilt mechanism.
  5. Drive the vehicle-in-tow up to the end of the ramps, but not on the ramps. Make sure the vehicle-in-tow is centered in line between the tow dolly fenders and that the front wheels are pointed ahead. Ensure that any spoiler or air dam will clear the ramps and rear edge of the carry pan.
    NOTE
    In some cases, it may be necessary to lay 1 or 2, (1 1/2” thick) boards flat on the ground starting under the ramp and continuing rearward toward the vehicle-in-tow. This will cause the tires on the vehicle-in-tow to ride up onto the boards first then onto the ramps and will lower the approach angle to clear low spoilers or long front ends.
  6. Close the doors of the vehicle-in-tow and drive forward slowly up the ramps and onto the tow dolly until tires stop on the front of the carrying pan.
  7. Place the gear shift lever in low gear (manual transmission) or in park, and apply the emergency brake. Place the ignition switch to the locked position and make sure that the front wheels are pointing straight ahead. Ensure that the steering wheel is locked and will not turn. (Parking brake is to be released after tie down procedure is completed.)
  8. On vehicles not equipped with a steering wheel lock mechanism, it is imperative that the steering wheel is immobilized by tying it to the seat frame or another suitable point with a ratchet strap or other device.
  9. Reinsert the tilt locking pin through the tilt cuff making sure that the safety retaining pin is inserted through the hole in the end of the locking pin.
