13. Lift the vehicle high enough to
allow the tires to clear the ground.
Make sure that the grid is not in
contact with any engine or body
components.
14. Remove the tie down straps from
tool boxes and attach the tie
down straps.
(See Tie-Down
Strap instructions).
15. With the straps in place, the
vehicle in neutral and the parking
brake released, you can move the
vehicle safely up, down, in or out.
All of these movements are
hydraulically controlled by the
hand controller.
16. Raise the vehicle into the final
towing position observing the far
end for sufficient ground
clearance. It is possible to set the
rear of a front lifted vehicle
completely onto the ground,
causing damage. Take irregular
roadsurfaces into consideration.
Observe the lift function from the
side and away from both vehicles
if possible.
NOTE:
For the best towing and
maneuverability the boom
should be as close to
horizontal as possible.
