Short Description

A trailer style carrier with a centre mono wheel which has a fold down ramp and is attached to the vehicle tow bar. It is designed to accommodate scooters and powered wheelchairs. Suitable for smaller vehicles as long as a tow bar can be fitted. Trailer size can be customised.

Method Of Use

1. Pull out 'T' handle to unlock lever and lower ramp
2. Hold the bed horizontal until ramp is fully down
3. Tilt the carrier bed and ramp to the ground
4. Load, by backing the wheelchair / scooter in (so that the back wheel pushes the carrier bed back into the horizontal position)
5. Pull lever to raise ramp. Lock lever down with the T handle.
6. Tie down using the supplied ratchet tie down
7. Reverse the above to unload

Models

Two sizes available:
1300mm load length model
1500mm load length model
. Carriers come complete with jockey wheel support legs, ratchet tie-down strap and a spare wheel. They accept wheelchairs, 3 and 4 wheel scooters, and come in two sizes. One takes load up to 1500mm long the other 1300mm long.

More Details

. The frame is made from steel. The bed and ramp is made of checker plate material and available in a choice of colour.

. The carrier is hinged to move up and down, but cannot articulate sideways, allowing it to be reversed without jack knifing.

. The mono wheel can pivot 360 degrees under the tray, keeping the trailer short.

. The carrier has a fold down / fold up ramp and tilts to the side as a unit for loading and unloading.

. Tie down straps can be hooked anywhere around the edge of the tray.
Additional tie points can be added to order for specific scooters.

. A safety lockable system allows for a padlock to be used that will secure both carrier and load.

. Two telescopic legs with castors are fitted to the front of the trailer to support it when removing it from the towing vehicle.

Factors To Consider

* Trial the RAL, with the scooter or wheelchair, for suitability before purchasing
* Some clients may find the RAL to be very heavy and therefore difficult to attach to the rear of the vehicle. Two people may be required to do this
