OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Make sure the vehicle is stable and is at the proper work height
1.
before positioning the under hoist stand(s) under a component.
Consult the vehicle manufacturer for the proper method of
2.
removing and installing the vehicle component and the proper
positioning of under hoist stands.
Become familiar with the operation of the stand. Turning the
3.
spin handle to the left or in a counterclockwise direction will raise
the support saddle. It will be necessary to hold the support saddle
still with one hand while spinning the handle with the other hand.
When the support saddle just barely touches the component,
remove your one hand from the saddle. Continuing to spin or
turn the handle in a counterclockwise direction will add pressure
against the vehicle component. The model 81034 is equipped with
a foot pedal which can raise the support saddle up to 1” more in
height and produce up to 400 pounds of force when depressed.
The foot pedal is normally used for alignment purposes where
fine adjustment is necessary to align bolt holes etc. Remember
that the stand is designed to support the component. Do not exert
excessive lifting pressure against the component as it might cause
the vehicle or its component to become unstable.
When the foot pedal is not being used or the stand is being
4.
stored, the pedal may be locked in a vertical position by simply
raising the pedal until it becomes parallel with the lifting tube.

It will be necessary to provide the Norco Authorized Service Center
with a copy of the bill of sale if requesting warranty repair. If the
authorized service center determines your product is eligible for
warranty repair, the repair will be made at no charge and returned
freight prepaid. The cost of non-warrantable service, repair, and

Always store the stand in a well protected area where it will not
1.
be exposed to inclement weather or any harmful elements. The
stand must be cleaned of water, snow, sand, or grit before using.
The stand must be lubricated periodically in order to prevent
2.
premature wearing of parts or rusting. A general purpose grease
must be applied to the extension screw and the model 81034 pedal
linkage. Make sure that no lubrication or grease comes in contact
with the support saddle. Always inspect the support saddle prior
to use and remove any traces of a substance that could cause
support saddle slippage.
Every stand owner is responsible for keeping the stand label
3.
clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash the external
surfaces of the stand but not the extension screw. Contact
Norco Industries for a replacement label if your stand’s label is
unreadable.
Inspect the stand before each use. Do not use the stand if it is
4.
cracked, broken, bent, shows signs of thread damage, has loose
or missing hardware, or is altered or modified in any way. Take
corrective action before using the stand again.
