*Position the Jack 

Position the jack to only lift on the areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.  

*Always Use Jack Stands 

After lifting the vehicle always support the load with appropriately rated vehicle Jack stands before working on the 
vehicle.  

*Do Not Overload Jack 

Do not overload this jack beyond its rated capacity. Overloading this jack beyond its rated capacity can cause damage 
to or failure of the jack.  

*Always Use on Hard Level Surfaces 

This jack is designed only for use on hard level surfaces capable of sustaining the load. Use on unstable surfaces may 
result in possible loss of load. 

* Chock and Block (Stabilize) 

-Apply parking brake in vehicle before operating jack. -A chock is a wedge for steadying an object and holding it 
motionless, or for preventing the movement of a wheel  
-Chock the wheel opposite the end being lifted. 
-When you block a load, you secure and support a load that is being lifted. The block(s) or stabilizer(s) should have a 
weight capacity that is greater than the weight of the load which is being lifted.  

*Center Load on Jack Saddle 

Center the load on jack saddle before lifting vehicle. 
Off-center loads and loads lifted when the jack is not level can cause loss of load or damage to the jack. 

*Do not raise or lower the vehicle unless tools, materials and people are clear. 

When the lift is being lowered, make sure everyone is standing at least six feet away. Be sure there are no tools or 
equipment left under or around the jack before lowering.  

*Always lower the jack slowly. 
DO NOT USE THE JACK TO SUPPORT OR STABILIZE A LOAD. 

Using the jack to support or stabilize a load may result in unexpected movement and result in serious injury, being 
crushed and death. Always securely chock and block (stabilize) the load to be lifted. Never place any part of the body 
under a raised load without properly chocking and supporting the load.  

*Never use the jack on curved or tubular vehicle 

Bumpers, this will result in the vehicle slipping off the jack and falling, causing serious injury or death. Use a bumper lift 
for vehicles with curved bumpers or plastic bumpers.  

*Wear ANSI-approved safety glasses and heavy-duty work gloves during use. 
*Do not adjust the safety valve.  
*Do not move or dolly vehicle while jack is in use. 
*Stay alert. Use caution and common sense when operating jack.

use the jack unless it is properly lubricated. -Using a jack that is not in good clean working condition or properly 
lubricated may cause serious injury. 

Additional Notes: 

Save the receipt, warranty and these instructions. 

Do not modify

 the jack in any way. Unauthorized modification may impair the function and/or safety and could affect 

the life of the equipment. There are specific applications for which the jack was designed. 

Always check for damaged or worn

 out parts before using the jack. Broken parts will affect the equipment operation.  

Replace or repair damaged or worn parts immediately.
