When parking at home my drive is on a slight slope so I have used a ramp on one side to not have to much lopsidedness and I can sit in the Eriba when the urge takes me and it is surprising how many people call to see it and we sit there having a drink and a chat! However I digress - When I am trying to get the ramp under the one side with the mover the wheel keeps slipping and throws the caravan off to the side slightly or just skids on touching the ramp. When I did get to on and looked there were little bits of my wheel rubber on the drive where the mover was shredding my tyre like an eraser! It's a Milenco triple ramp, and only on the first level so I am not sure what I am doing wrong or do I need to tighten the mover against the tyre even more as I thought it was quite tight to take it up the ramp. At least I think its the mover teeth doing the erasing when slipping on the tyre. HELP

Probably tighten against the wheel I guess but I am no expert. Never tried on smooth surfaces but there is a mark on the mover for the correct place is there not?

Ok this is easier to see than explain!!! Get a piece of old carpet about 4 or 5 foot long cut it to just over the width of your ramp now wrap the ramp in the carpet ensuring you have both ends at the lower end of the ramp if your ramps are (sorry! Were) like mine, then you should have about 18 inches of carpet to run the wheel onto once the weight of the caravan is on the carpet it will hold the ramp in place for you

If you need more, please come back, it's far easier to actually do than it sounds

I had trouble with the Milenco ramp(s) sliding as soon as a wheel made contact. Much like the carpet idea, I had a bit left over from a rubber non-slip mat that I once bought from Aldi and had cut to shape for the car boot. Cutting the left-overs of rubber mat to a size just larger than the ramp and then placing it under the ramp as and when required was just the ticket.

I have the Reich comfort and like Aaron says they have an indicator which takes a lot of pressure to get the green indicator to fully show, also make sure your tyre pressure is ok.
It sounds like you are using a graduated ramp which has a small lip at each graduation, this will take more effort to ride over rather than the cheese wedge type, the one I have is similar to the one in the link, it has a small ladder grip at the front so that it doesn't push the ramp away and the slope is gradual with no lips. It has always worked ok for me, the only thing I do find is that when using a ramp it will pull the van to one side slightly and its just a case of compensating with the the remote control.....

If it is just the first section of the Milenco, why not make up a levelling ramp
from a chamfered plank, then use the carpet wheeze.
I feel your mover may be valiantly trying to climb the next highest section.

Ah ! so that's why they come in 'pairs'

Thanks for the help will check all the tips mentioned, and I always wondered what there were pairs of ramps for. But never thought they were for grills and tables!

Ahhh many thanks that is very helpful I will ensure I have eaten two shreddies before attempting to show the green line,!

We have a Milenco leveller which is very easy to use. I bought this one, second hand, for £50.00.

I've got the same problem as Taffy (slight slope, lopsided), But being from Yorkshire and careful with the cash, I made my own ramp from a 6 foot x 9" plank rescued from a skip, obviously used as a straght edge when pouring concrete. Cut into 3 sections, 3 foot 2 foot and 1 foot with the front edge chamfered, screwed together and Robert's your fathers brother. There is a slight tendency to drift to one side as the wheel climbs the ramp, but easily corrected by holding the front offside handle.
