Installation Instructions
INTENDED USE
The MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System is intended to load, unload, and transport ATVs, UTVs, Golf Carts,
and Snowmobiles only. Depending on ATV/UTV/Golf Cart/Snowmobile weight, a minimum of a Class III or a
Class IV receiver hitch is required for the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System. It is imperative that you check
your owner’s manual to determine the tongue-weight rating for your truck’s specic receiver hitch. Once you
know your truck’s specic tongue-weight rating, you will need to perform one quick calculation: Add together
the total weight of the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System (151 pounds) and two-thirds of the weight of your
ATV, UTV, Golf Cart, or Snowmobile (2/3 = machine weight x 0.67). After you have completed this calculation,
you must make sure that the combined weight of the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System and two-thirds of
the weight of your ATV/UTV/Golf Cart/Snowmobile is less than the maximum tongue-weight rating for your
truck’s receiver hitch. If this combined weight is more than the maximum tongue-weight rating for your truck’s
receiver hitch, the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System should NOT be used on your truck.
NOTE: When using the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System with a Golf Cart, ensure there is enough ground
clearance to safety drive the Golf Cart onto the ramps.
Furthermore, it is imperative that you closely inspect your truck’s receiver hitch to determine whether it is in
good working condition. You need to ensure that the structural integrity of your truck’s receiver hitch has not
been degraded from years of use or misuse, or from the use of highway salts and other degrading compounds
that your truck may have encountered.
MAD-RAMPS are DOT compliant for highway travel in the United States. In order to maintain compliance,
three straps must be used to secure your machine prior to transport. For maximum safety, it is recommended
that ratchet straps be used to secure your machine for transport-two at the front of your ATV/UTV/Golf Cart/
Snowmobile and one in the rear, as a minimum.
NOTE: When UTV/Side by Side exceeds 1,000 lbs dry weight, we recommend backing the machine on the
MAD-RAMP. Due to the higher weight and continuous stress load on the MAD-RAMP we make this
recommendation so that more weight is carried by the pickup and less transferred to the MAD-RAMP, which
decreases the continuous load and helps maintain the strength and integrity of the unit.
MAINTENANCE
The MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System is free from any regular or scheduled maintenance. There
are no bearings, grease ttings, lubrication points, etc. However, several sound practices will ensure
the safety, longevity, and durability of your MAD-RAMPS for years to come.
• Keep all components clean and free from any mud or debris that can accumulate with regular use.
• Use a torque wrench to ensure all of the jam bolts are tightened to 70 ft/lbs each prior to each
use.
• Periodically check to ensure proper function of brake lights, tail lights, and turn signals.
• When not in use for extended periods of time, store MAD-RAMPS indoors.

MAD-RAMPS ASSEMBLY GUIDE
NOTE: All ½ inch jam bolts used for assembling the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System
must be torqued to 70 ft/lbs each. Please check jam bolts for proper torque after rst use and
periodically thereafter.
Step 1:
Start the assembly process with the tailgate of your truck in the up-right position. Pre-thread two
of the provided jam bolts into the Bumper Guard (part #9), as shown in Figure 1. Slide the Bumper
Guard onto the receiver end of the Main Arm (part #6), as shown in Figure 2. Then insert the Main
Arm into your truck’s receiver hitch. Secure the Main Arm into the receiver hitch with a pin and key
(Figure 3). Adjustments to the Bumper Guard’s position on the Main Arm will be made in a later step,
so do not tighten the two jam bolts for the Bumper Guard at this time.
Step 2:
Pre-thread two of the provided jam bolts into the Light Bar (part #4), as shown in Figure 4. Slide the
Light Bar onto the angled end of the Main Arm (part #6), approximately ½ of the way down the Main
Arm (Figure 5). Adjustments to the Light Bar’s position on the Main Arm will be made in a later step,
so do not tighten the two jam bolts for the Light Bar at this time.

Step 3:
Install a Retainer Clip into the 3rd hole from the angled end of Main Arm (part #6), as shown in
Figures 6 and 7. Retainer clips are installed as a backup safety measure to prevent the Pivot Bar
(part #5) from moving out of position on the Main Arm. Adjustments to the Pivot Bar and Retainer
Clips may be required at a later step, depending on vehicle and machine conguration.
Step 4:
Pre-thread two of the provided jam bolts into the Pivot Bar (part #5), as shown in Figure 8. Slide the
Pivot Bar onto the angled end of the Main Arm (part #6), as shown in Figures 9 and 10.

Step 5:
NOTE: The Pivot Cages (part #7 and part #8) and the Aluminum Ramps (part #1 and part #2)
are side-specic and not interchangeable.
Lower your tailgate into the down position. Slide the Driver-Side Pivot Cage (part #7) onto the Pivot
Bar (part #5), as shown in Figure 11. Install a retainer clip into the Driver’s side end of the Pivot Bar
(Figure 12). Repeat the process for the Passenger-Side Pivot Cage (part #8).
There needs to be 4-6 inches of clearance between both Pivot Cages and your tailgate (Figure 13).
To obtain a distance of 4-6 inches between the Pivot Cages and your tailgate, adjust the positioning
of the Pivot Bar by sliding it forward or backward on the Main Arm (part #6). Check the Pivot Cages to
make sure they do not come in contact with the tailgate. You can perform this check by swiveling the
Cages through their entire range of motion. The positioning of the Pivot Bar must be far enough
back on the Main Arm to allow the rear tires of your ATV/ UTV to be positioned well-forward of
the Pivot Bar once the ATV/UTV is loaded onto the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System.

Once the Pivot Bar is positioned correctly, secure the Pivot Bar to the Main Arm by tightening the two
jam bolts. Tighten the side jam bolt rst and then the bottom jam bolt with a torque wrench to 70 ft/lbs
each (Figure 14).
Once the Pivot Bar has been adjusted and secured, move the retainer clip installed in Step #3 to the
hole closest to the front of the Pivot Bar (part #5), as shown in Figure 15.

Step 6:
Adjust the Light Bar (part #4) to a position on the main arm that allows the front ends of the Pivot
Cages (parts #7 and #8) to come to a rest on the Light Bar when the Pivot Cages are swiveled down
into their cradle positions (Figures 16 and 17). Once the Light Bar is positioned correctly, secure the
Light Bar to the Main Arm (part #6) by tightening the two jam bolts. Tighten the side jam bolt rst and
then the bottom jam bolt with a torque wrench to 70 ft/lbs each (Figure 18).
Step 7:
Insert the Passenger-Side Aluminum Ramp (part #2) into the rear of the Passenger-Side Pivot Cage
(part #8), as shown in Figure 19. Ensure that the 3 pre-drilled holes on the side of the Passenger-
Side Aluminum Ramp are facing toward the outside of the MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System; this
allows for the spring tension pin on the Passenger-Side Pivot Cage to lock the Passenger-Side Alu-
minum Ramp into place when loading, unloading, and transporting your ATV/ UTV, as shown in Fig-
ure 20. Repeat the process with the Driver-Side Aluminum Ramp (part #1) and the Driver-Side Pivot
Cage (part #7).
NOTE: The spring-tension pin on the Pivot Cages (part #7 and part #8) must ALWAYS be en-
gaged and securely locked into place with the Aluminum Ramps (part #1 and #2) when the
MAD-RAMPS Pivoting Ramp System is in use.

Step 8:
Adjust the Bumper Guard (part #9) forward or backward on the Main Arm to allow the Aluminum
Ramps (part #1 and #2) to travel through the Pivot Cages (part #7 and #8) and come to a rest just
below the Bumper Guard (Figure 21). This adjustment prevents the Aluminum Ramps from excessive
movement or contact with your truck’s bumper during transportation. This adjustment also serves as
a safety mechanism to prevent the Aluminum Ramps and the Pivot Cages from swiveling out of their
cradle positions when you are transporting your ATV/UTV. Once the Bumper Guard is positioned cor-
rectly, secure the Bumper Guard to the Main Arm (part #6) by tightening the two jam bolts. Tighten the
side jam bolt rst and then the bottom jam bolt with a torque wrench to 70 ft/lbs each (Figure 22).
Step 9:
Install the Rear Marker Light (part #3) into the rear of the Main Arm (part #6), and align the pre-drilled
holes to allow for the retainer clip to be inserted (Figure 23). Insert the retainer clip to secure the Rear
Marker Light onto the Main Arm (Figure 24).
