Wheel chocks are effective holding devices, but only when used

properly. Namely, chocks must be used in pairs and positioned

downhill and below the vehicles center of gravity. This could mean

chocking in front of the front wheels if the vehicle is disabled while

traveling down a grade or the back of the rear wheels if the vehicle is

disabled while traveling up a grade. This could also mean chocking the

front and back of one wheel if the direction of the grade cannot be

determined or even using multiple pairs of chocks in severe conditions.

Although these are generally accepted chocking procedures, it is the decision

of each individual end user to make the final determination about chocking.

Various combinations of chocking procedures should be evaluated and tested

under various situations and conditions.

Wheel chocks should be used not only when a vehicle becomes disabled on a

grade, but also during maintenance and any time the vehicle is left unattended.

Chocks must also be positioned snugly and squarely against the center of the

tire tread. Improper positioning decreases the wheel chock’s effectiveness.

Chocks should be used only after the parking brake is applied and tested.

WARNING!

and application

• Improper use may result in product failure

• Select wheel chock according to vehicle type and size

• Always use in pairs and on firm surfaces

• Multiple pairs may be required in extreme conditions

• Chock in direction of grade

• Chock both sides of wheel if direction of grade is undetermined

• Use only after parking brake is applied and tested

• Center chocks snugly and squarely against tread of each wheel

• Always test chocks to ensure they meet requirements

• Do not drive over wheel chocks
