It says in the loadhandler manual: 1) unload your truck asap after loading it. Do not let a load settle. It creates "lockup" between the wheel wells, resulting in backpull. 2) Truck must be equipped with smooth bedliner or slipper mat. Without it, especially on an old, beat up rusty floor, the drag on the liner will be sufficient to cause backpull with a load on it. I have used my loadhandler for many things many times, including firewood, ear corn, composted horse manure, and have never experienced sufficient backpull to whip the handle. Manuals are supplied for a reason: to read. If you didn't read your manual prior to using your loadhandler, then you have no one to blame but yourself for being ignorant of proper equipment operation. As a popular comedian would say, "Here's your sign."
