First, confirm that the hydraulic tilt-deck trailer is securely hitched to the truck and any objects and onlookers are kept at a safe distance. After releasing the quick release on the trailer deck's side, lock it into position. This will activate the hydraulic lift. As the deck rises and tilts toward the ground, be sure to move away from the truck or vehicle that is connected to the trailer. Carefully drive or load the vehicle or machinery onto the lift after making sure the hydraulic cylinder is engaged. Pay attention to how weight is distributed. The hydraulic lift will automatically activate and gently tilt the bed back into position after cargo is loaded.
