CONSEQUENCES OF NOT AVOIDING HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
Failure to read this manual completely and thoroughly, failure to understand
its OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, SAFETY WARNINGS, MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS and
comply with them, and failure to comply with the METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS
SITUATIONS could cause accidents resulting in serious or fatal personal injury
and/or property damage.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
**** This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
- Make sure the work floor is clean and free of debris and obstacles.
- Chock the vehicle’s tires that will not be lifted. Make sure the emergency brake is on and the vehicle’s transmission is either in the park mode or in gear if a manual transmission.
- Raise the vehicle to a safe working height and make sure the jack and vehicle setup are stable before positioning the jack stands.
- Position the jack stands right below the areas of the vehicle to be supported.
- Lift the support columns as close to the vehicle as possible without the saddles on the columns coming in contact with the vehicle. Make sure the stands’ locking pin is fully engaging the stand on both sides. Never use the stand’s lower support plate as a load bearing surface for the locking pin.
- Slowly and carefully lower the vehicle on the jack stands. Shock loads or loads dropped abruptly on stands can cause premature metal fatigue or even stand failure depending on the weight of the vehicle and the speed of decent that impacts the stands’ support columns.
- When work is completed, raise the vehicle high enough off the stands where the stands can be easily removed.
WARNING: Do not crawl under vehicle when placing/removing stands.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
**** This is the safety alert symbol used for the PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE section of this manual to alert you to potential personal injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
- Always store the jacks stands in a well protected area where they will not be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any other harmful elements. The stands must be cleaned of water, snow, sand, grit, oil, grease and other foreign matter before using.
- Every jack stand owner is responsible for keeping the stand labels clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash external surfaces of the stand. Contact for a replacement label if your stand’s label is not readable.
- Inspect the stands before each use. Do not use the stands if any component is cracked, broken or bent. Do not use the stand if it has loose or missing hardware or components, or is modified in any way. Take corrective action before using the stand again. Premature wearing or damage to components caused by loose or missing hardware is not eligible for warranty consideration.
