Max Load Capacity: 300 lbs.
Always use appropriate hand holds when stepping up to or down from your truck’s cargo bed.

The step pad surface and linkage arms can be washed with mild soap and water using a soft brush or
sponge to dislodge any mud, dirt or accumulated road grime. Rinse with fresh water.
To prevent slipping, avoid applying waxes, lubricants or protectants like Armor All® to the step surface.
