THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
The use of portable automotive lifting devices are subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but only
by the exercise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in the use and
operation of the equipment who are careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the equipment and its proper
use. Examples of hazards are dropping, tipping or slipping of loads caused primarily by improperly securing loads, overloading,
off-centered loads, use on other than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not designed.
METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
• Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before operating this device.
• Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use jack if damaged, altered, modified, in poor condition, leaking hydraulic fluid, or
unstable due to loose or missing hardware or parts. Make corrections before using.
• Lift only on areas of the vehicle as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
• Users and bystanders must wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards.
• Do not use jack beyond its rated capacity.
• This is a lifting device only. Immediately after lifting, support the vehicle with jack stands capable of sustaining the load
before working on the vehicle.
• Use only on a hard level surface free from obstructions so the jack is free to reposition itself during lifting and lowering
operations.
• Center load on saddle. Be sure setup is stable before working on vehicle.
• Do not move or dolly the vehicle while on the jack.
• Do not use any materials that may serve as risers, spacers or extenders between the stock lifting saddle and the load.
• Do not use any adaptors that replace the stock lifting saddle unless approved or supplied by the jack manufacturer.
• Always lower the jack slowly and carefully.
• This product may contain one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
Wash hands thoroughly after handling.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
