  Because each ramp configuration will differ from one 

another, your system may or may not contain all of these basic system components:

A) 

i) 

Refer to FIG. 44, METHOD B. 

ii) 

Install one TIE DOWN KIT per each 10-feet of ramp (e.g., 8' of ramp 
requires one TIE DOWN KIT, but 12’ of ramp requires two). See FIG. 43 
for acceptable locations. 

iii) 

Drill a 5/16” hole below the tread surface and between the ribs underneath 
the treads in each of the side rails at the center of the ramp. 

iv) 

In this drilled hole, install one of the 5/16” eyebolts and secure to the ramp 
using one 5/16” flat washer and one 5/16” nut. 

v) 

Install the tie down anchor augers into the ground, inline with the eyebolts 
and perpendicular to the ramp at an approximate angle of 30 degrees. 
Use a ½” steel rod (or similar item) through the eye of the anchor auger to 
turn the anchor auger into the ground. Keep turning the auger until only 
the eye is exposed. 

vi) 

Secure one end of the wire rope to one of the eyebolts using the supplied 
3/16” wire rope clamps. Thread the other end of the wire rope through the 
eye of the anchor auger and secure the wire rope to itself using the 
supplied 3/16” wire rope clamps. NOTE:  Ensure that the wire rope has 
been pulled taut and all slack has been removed prior to securing it to the 
anchor auger. 

vii) 

Cut the excess wire rope as required using a cable cutter or other 
appropriate tool. Wrap vinyl electrical tape at the cut end to keep the wire 
rope from fraying. 

viii) 

Repeat on the opposite side of ramp section. 

B) 

i) 

Refer to FIG. 44, METHOD A. 

ii) 

Install one TIE DOWN KIT per Platform. 

iii) 

Install eyebolts by removing the 5/16” x 1½” bolt, then inserting the eyebolt 

in its place (see FIG. 43 for acceptable locations).
