1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Never overload the hydraulic jack.
Never exceed the maximum lifting height of the hydraulic jack.
Make sure that the surface on which you use the hydraulic jack is level and stable. Never use the
hydraulic jack on surfaces that can cave in or collapse.
Always keep your work area well lit, clean and free of obstacles.
Never lift a vehicle when there are people inside. Stop the engine of the vehicle and pull the hand-
brake. Make sure that the vehicle can not roll or slip away. For vehilcles with manual transmission
use the 1st gear or the reverse gear. For vehicles with automatic transmission use positon „P“.
Always use chock blocks (A).
Never board the vehicle and/or start its engine as long as it is suspended on the hydraulic jack or
on support stands.
The hydraulic jack is desinged to lift automobiles or similar vehicles. It is not designed to move any
load horizontally. Never attempt to push a vehicle that is suspended on the hydraulic jack.
Position the hydraulic jack so that it will lift the vehicle using the designated supporting points as
indicated by tha manufacurer of the vehicle. Make sure that those points are not rusty, dirty, oily or
compromised in any other way.
Make sure that the lifting surface of the hydraulic jack is positioned in the center of the supporting
points on the vehicle. Failure to do so can result in the hydraulic jack tipping over and potentially
serious injuy or even death!
Make sure the vehicle can not move in any way when trying to lift it with the hydraulic jack. Heavy
traffic (when using the hydraulic jack near or on a road) may cause significant vibrations - wait for
the right timig if necessary.
Positon the hydraulic jack so that you do not have to put any part of your body below the vehicle
when lifting it.
Never crawl under a vehicle that is being lifted by a hydraulic jack. You MUST use a minimum of 2
support stands per axle (C) and make sure that the vehicle rests safely on those stands before you
can crawl under the vehicle and make repairs!
Pay close attention to the hydraulic jack while lifting. Immediately stop lifting the vehicle if you
notice anything unusual (eg. unstable jack, moving vehicle, etc).
Make sure that there are no objects or persons under the vehicle before you lower it.
