DUMP BRACE® Safety Stand FAQs
Q: When should I use a dump bed safety support?
A: Use a dump bed safety support during maintenance or repairs under a raised dump bed. This includes checking hydraulic systems, inspecting the bed’s structural components, or any work requiring an elevated bed. Safety supports, like these truck bed braces, keep beds securely in place, preventing accidental drops that could cause severe injury or damage.
Q: Can I use only one dump bed brace?
A: Two dump bed braces are generally safer and recommended. DUMP BRACE® stands are sold as a pair and are intended to be used together, not alone. This guarantees balanced support and minimizes the bed tilting or collapsing risk, especially when working with heavy loads or during extensive repairs. Two braces offer more stability and security, protecting the technician and the equipment.
