IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THE DOLLY IS ON LEVEL STABLE GROUND. THE DOLLY COUPLER SHOULD BE AROUND 12 TO 16 INCHES OFF THE GROUND TO THE BOTTOM OF THE COUPLER. YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE SOMEONE ON THE OUTSIDE OBSERVING AND TELLING YOU WHEN TO STOP AS NEEDED. AGREE ON THE SIGNALS OR LANGUAGE BEFORE STARTING. BE VERY CAREFUL NOT TO DRIVE OFF THE FRONT OF THE DOLLY, IT IS A MESS TO CORRECT. YOUR CAR SHOULD BE CENTERED AS WELL AS CAN BE TO THE DOLLY. CENTERED TO THE DOLLY AND ALIGNED STRAIGHT TO THE DOLLY. PLACE YOUR RAMPS IN FRONT OF THE CAR TIRES SO THEY ARE CENTERED ON THE TIRES. THE RAMPS SHOULD BE CONTACTING THE DOLLY AND SITTING DIRECTLY ON THE GROUND. DRIVE UP THE RAMPS SLOWLY BUT STEADLY WITH ONE FOOT OVER THE BRAKE PEDDLE. AFTER YOU ARE  ON THE DOLLY DRIVE UP VERY SLOWLY UNTIL YOUR TIRES ARE TOUCHING ON THE STEEL UPRIGHT ON THE FRONT OF THE DOLLY. APPLY YOUR BRAKE SO THE DOLLY CANNOT ROLL OFF. NOW ATTACH THE STRAPS. TAKE CARE TO REMOVE ALL THE SLACK FROM THE STRAPS THAT YOU CAN BEFORE USING THE RATCHETS. OBSERVE HOW THE ADJUSTABLE RING AND THE RATCHET ARE ON THE SIDEWALL OF THE TIRE. COMPRESS THE STRAP AS TIGHT ONTO THE TIRE AS YOU CAN. IF YOU RUN OUT OF ROOM ON THE RATCHET SPINDLE THEN YOU HAD WAY TO MUCH EXTRA SLACK IN THE WHEEL STRAP. RELEASE IT AND DO IT OVER. THE CENTER SAFETY CHAIN GOES FROM THE TIE LOOP IN THE CENTER OF THE WHEELPAN TO A CONVIENANT LOCATION ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE CAR. KEEP THE CHAIN SHORT AND VERTICAL. CHECK ALL YOUR LIGHTS. RELEASE THE BRAKE. IF YOU ARE TOWING A CAR WITH A LOCKING STEERING COLUMN LEAVE THE KEY SET TO ACCESSORY AND THE CAR WILL TOW AND TURN JUST FINE. BEFORE LETTING OUT ONTO THE BIG ROAD TRY A FEW SWERVES AND STOPS BEFORE GOING. CHECK THE WHEEL STRAPS AND RATCHETS. NEW STRAPS WILL STRECTCH. WET STRAPS WILL STRETCH, GOING FROM WARM TO COLD CLIMATES WILL CONDENSE THE AIR IN YOUR TIRES AND THE STRAPS WILL BECOME LOOSE. WATCH AND CHECK YOUR STRAPS VERY CLOSELY.
