When is it best to use two chocks?
It is best to use two chocks when chocking two wheels on a gradient or one wheel on flat ground for maximum stability.
Can I use just one chock?
While you can use a single chock, they are most effective and provide the best safety when used in pairs, especially on any kind of incline.
What is the primary safety purpose of these chocks?
Their primary purpose is to stop unwanted vehicle movement, serving as a vital safety device when lifting a vehicle or parking on slopes.
Troubleshooting
Chocks slide on smooth surfaces
Ensure the surface is clean and dry. For very smooth or wet surfaces, consider using chocks with a more aggressive tread pattern or augmenting with additional stabilization methods.
Chock does not fit snugly against the tire
Verify the chock is placed correctly against the tire. These chocks are designed for general use; for tires with unusually aggressive tread patterns or very narrow sidewalls, a specialized chock might be necessary.
Handle feels loose
Inspect the handle attachment point. If it appears damaged, discontinue use and consider replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
