whose support points are compatible with saddle
of jack stand. Incompatibility may result in
structural damage to vehicle and/or jack stand.
1. Adjust height by pulling up on ratchet bar.

engaged.
4. Carefully position jack stands so that load is centered
on stand’s saddle.

6. Ensure vehicle is secure before working on, around
or under. Chock all unlifted wheels in both directions
to prevent inadvertent movement.

To avoid crushing and related injuries:
NEVER work on, under or around a load
supported only by a hydraulic jack. ALWAYS
use adequately rated jack stands.
Failure to assure that that both jack stands, used as a
pair, are fully loaded can result in death, serious injury or
property damage. Make sure that both jack stands, used
as a pair, are fully loaded before working under a vehicle
supported by this pair of jack stands.
Working under a load supported by a temporary lifting
device may result in death, serious injury, or property
damage. Minimize the amount of time that you are
exposed under a load supported by a temporary lifting
device by setting the height and pinning the jack stands to
their desired heights before going under the load to use
the pair of jack stands to support the front or rear end of
the vehicle.
•
Study, understand, and follow all instructions
before operating the device.
• Do not exceed rated capacity.
• Use only on hard, level surface capable of
supporting the load.
• Center load on saddle.
• Use as a matched pair only.
•
Stands are not to be used to simultaneously
support both ends of a vehicle.
• No alterations shall be made to this product.
• Failure to heed these markings may result in
personal injury and/or property damage.
