IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
When using this lift, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Do not raise a vehicle on the lift until the installation is completed as described in this manual.
2. Always position the arms and adapters properly out of the way before pulling the vehicle into,
or out of the bay. Failure to do so could damage the vehicle and/or the lift.
3. Do not overload the lift. The capacity of the lift is shown on cover of this document and on the
lift’s serial number tag.
4. Note that the removal or installation of some vehicle parts may cause a critical load shift in the
center of gravity and may cause the vehicle to become unstable. Refer to the vehicle
manufacturer’s service manual for recommended procedures.
5. Positioning the vehicle is very important. Only trained technicians should position the vehicle
on the lift. Never allow anyone to stand in the path of the vehicle as it is being positioned and
never raise vehicle with passengers inside.
6. Position the arms to the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended pickup points. Raise the lift until
contact is made with the vehicle. Make sure that the arms have properly engaged the vehicle
before raising the lift to a working height.
7. Keep everyone clear of the lift when the lift is moving, the locking mechanism is disengaged, or
the vehicle is in danger of falling.
8. Unauthorized personnel should never be in the shop area when the lift is in use.
9. Inspect the lift daily. The lift should never be operated if it has damaged components, or is
malfunctioning. Only qualified technicians should service the lift.
10. Service and maintain the unit only with authorized or approved replacement parts.
11. Keep the area around the lift clear of obstacles.
12. Never override the self-returning lift controls.
13. Use safety stands when removing or installing heavy vehicle components.
14. Avoid excessive rocking of the vehicle when it is on the lift.
