Safety Information

• Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 70 lbs.

• Regularly inspect the ramp for any signs of wear or damage. Discontinue use if damaged.

Setup and Adjustment

The iPetba pet ramp comes pre-assembled and ready for use. Follow these steps to set it up and adjust its height:

1. Unfold the Ramp: Carefully unfold the ramp from its compact storage position.
2. Position the Ramp: Place the top edge of the ramp securely against the elevated surface (bed, couch, etc.) your pet will be accessing. Ensure the ramp is stable and does not wobble.
3. Adjust Height:
   • Locate the adjustable support legs underneath the ramp.
   • Lift the ramp slightly and slide the support legs to the desired notch for the appropriate height. The ramp offers 5 adjustable heights: 7" (Starter), 13.2" (Ottoman), 17" (Window Seat), 20.3" (Couch), and 24" (Bed).
   • Ensure both support legs are engaged in the same notch for a level and stable ramp.
4. Verify Stability: Gently press down on the ramp to confirm it is stable and does not shift or collapse under pressure.

Operating Instructions (Pet Training)

Training your pet to use the ramp may require patience and positive reinforcement. Here’s a guide to help your dog acclimate:

1. Introduce the Ramp: Place the ramp in a familiar area, initially at its lowest height setting (7 inches). Allow your pet to sniff and explore it without pressure.
2. Use Treats and Praise: Lure your pet onto the ramp with their favorite treats or toys. Place treats along the ramp to encourage them to walk up and down. Use verbal praise and gentle petting.
3. Gradual Progression: Once your pet is comfortable using the ramp at the lowest setting, gradually increase the height. Repeat the treat and praise method at each new height.
4. Consistency is Key: Use the ramp consistently for all access to elevated surfaces. Avoid letting your pet jump, as this can confuse them during training.
5. Positive Association: Make using the ramp a positive experience. Never force your pet onto the ramp, as this can create fear or aversion.

Maintenance

• Cleaning: Wipe the wooden frame with a damp cloth. For the fabric surface, use a pet-safe fabric cleaner or a mild soap solution and allow it to air dry completely.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws and joints to ensure they are tight. Inspect the fabric surface for excessive wear or damage.
• Storage: When not in use, fold the ramp flat and store it in a dry place away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures to prolong its lifespan.
