WITH A SHOP JACK
Front end
The car may only be raised by plac-
ing the jack arm under the gearbox/dif-
ferential, inserting a wooden or rub-
ber block as shown in
fig. 36 .
The jack should only be
used to change a wheel
on the car for which it
was designed. It should not be
put to other uses or emplyoed to
rise other models. Under no cir-
cumstances should it be used
when carrying out repairs under
the car.
An incorrectly posi-
tioned jack may cause the
car to fall.
Do not use the jack to
lift loads exceeding that
indicated on the label at-
tached to the jack itself.
Please note:
– the jack requires no adjustments;
– the jack cannot be repaired. If it
breaks it must be replaced with a new
jack;
– no other tool, except for the han-
dle shown in this chapter, can be fit-
ted to the jack.
