4. OPERATION
WARNING! To prevent personal accident and/or damage to the vehicle, it is imperative that the vehicle does not move during the fi tting
or use of the wheel step. Chock the wheels and ensure that the vehicle handbrake is on. Put automatics in ‘park’.
4.1. Unfold the step frame. Take the step in its fl at condition as shown in fi g.1 and pull the adjustable wheel bar (C) into position.
4.1.1. Using bar (C), lift the whole frame away from the step into the fully open confi guration shown in fi g.2.
4.2. Adjust bar (C) to suit tyre depth (A): Bar (C) can be set to one of three positions as indicated at 4, 5 & 6 in fi g.2. These holes occur on
both sides of the frame. To move the bar to the next set of holes, depress the sprung chrome buttons (7) on either side into the frame
and slide the frame in or out until the buttons ‘pop out’ into the next set of holes.
4.3. Adjust height of step (B): There are three positions for the step as indicated at 1, 2, & 3 in fi g.2. Loosen and remove nut (8) on both
sides of the step. Withdraw the two bolts and reassemble the step at the height required ensuring that the nuts are not so tight as to
prevent the hinges operating when it is required to fold the frame fl at. The step height can be changed either before or after hanging the
frame onto a vehicle wheel/tyre.
4.4. Hang frame on tyre: Ensure that the handbrake is on and the wheels are chocked before positioning the wheel step.
