Description
The Tilt-a-Rack® Scooter Carrier makes transporting motorized wheelchairs and scooters effortless. The Tilt-a-Rack® Scooter Carrier is easy to install and use. There are no electronic components. Gravity and balance work for you!- • 32" x 60" usable space.
- • The carrier has a hinging device located just behind the hitch. The hinging device has three positions. Each position uses a 5/8" pin. The first position keeps the rack locked in the horizontal position. The second position allows the loaded scooter rack to lift and float over dips and curbs. The third position will permit you to store the rack in a vertical position.
- • The leveling bolt on the frame beneath the platform keeps the carrier level for each type of vehicle and levels the center of gravity of the many types of chairs and scooters.
- • The tilt feature eliminates the need for ramps. With the flip of a latch, the rack tilts easily toward the passenger side. It conveniently reaches the curb for parallel parking. The deck extender pulls out from beneath the scooter, reducing the angle of incline. This feature is especially helpful when a handicap curb is not available.
- • The two set bolts eliminate the minute movement of the hitch bar when inside the hitch receiver. They are tightened to the face of the receiver immediately after you attach the carrier to your vehicle. Works with a 2" Class III hitch (standard). Can work with 1 1/4" Class II hitch when you purchase the Class II height-adjustable hitch bar.
- • For low or smaller vehicles, add the Class II or III height-adjustable hitch bar.

Reviews on SpinLife are written by our customers who have bought and used the product.
Reviewer: Ronald L. from Oil city, PA (caregiver)
End User Desc: age 63, progressive degenerative arthritis in spine-have had 8 surgeries (2 laminectomies in lumbar area-arathritic spur punctured the spinal cord cau
Strengths: The aluminum construction was 'okay'. There were some welds that weren't perfect.
Weaknesses: We had trouble pulling the ramp out as there were a few areas that were dented. We used a rubber mallet to tamp those areas, and the ramp extended smoothly.

Had great diffulcty learning how to use the carrier. We bought and installed it ourselves.
Reviewer: Mondo M. from Albuqueqrue, NM (caregiver)End User Desc: 60 year old male, with DJD of the spine. difficulty walkng. He gets around in a power chair.
Strengths: Once we got the hang of it, it moves the power chair well. It's relatively light weight.
Weaknesses: It drags bottom in certain situations. It can be very difficult to slide in and out from the hitch. The spring loaded arm under the carrier can be very hard to put out. It's been a very frustrating experience installing and detaching the carrier.
