Ranger RML-1500XL Installation And Operation Manual page 14

Choose a Mode
The Lift can be installed in either of two Modes:
• Motorcycle Mode. For motorcycles only. In Motorcycle Mode, the Lift's Platform is not wide
enough to accommodate ATVs.
To install the Lift in Motorcycle Mode, install the Cover and the Motorcycle Ramp, then bolt the
Clamp Assembly onto the front of the Platform.
If you are installing the Lift in Motorcycle Mode, do not install the two gray ATV Ramps, the
Side Extensions, or the Front Extension. You will also not need to use the Connecting Rods.
If you are installing the Lift in Motorcycle Mode, you will have components left over. We
recommend keeping them, in case you want to switch to ATV Mode in the future.
• ATV Mode. For ATVs and Motorcycles. ATV Mode is wide enough to accommodate ATVs and
Motorcycles. The only drawback to using ATV Mode for Motorcycles is that you cannot get as
close to the sides of the Motorcycle as you can in Motorcycle Mode (because the side
extensions get in the way).
To install the Lift in ATV Mode, add the Side Extensions on both sides of the Platform, the Front
Extension over the front of the Platform, the Cover on the Ramp end, and the two gray ATV
Ramps. You will need to use the Connecting Rods.
The procedures in this Manual assume you are installing the Lift in ATV Mode. If you are installing
the Lift in Motorcycle Mode, just ignore the instructions for those components that are only used in
ATV Mode.
