SPECIFIC SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
AND WARNINGS
WARNING
DO NOT attempt to use this Crossbeam on any jack unless it has a thread
bolt receiving hole on the saddle. The hole size should be M24*1.5.
DO NOT attempt to use on any jack when the Connection bolt on the
Crossbeam does not properly fit into the receiving hole on the saddle.
The chains are designed to limit the travel of the pads to a safe
distance. DO NOT remove them.
1. Verify that the product and application are compatible, if in doubt
call OEMTOOLS

at 866-458-2472.
2. Before using this product, read the operator’s manual completely
and familiarize yourself thoroughly with the product, its
components and recognize the hazards associated with its use.
3. Wear appropriate safety gear, including heavy-duty work gloves
and ANSI-approved safety goggles during use.
4. DO NOT exceed the weight capacity of the Crossbeam. Make
sure weight is evenly distributed. Be aware of dynamic loading!
Sudden load movement may briefly create excess load causing
product failure. Exceeding the maximum capacity for this product is
dangerous and can lead to serious injury or property damage.
5. Never use this device as a work/repair station. Transfer the load
immediately to a suitable work station.
6. Always evaluate your task before using this Crossbeam. Use as
intended only.
7. Lifting or supporting a vehicle or its components, even within
weight limit, can create an off-balance situation, causing Jack
to tip over and MAY lead to serious personal injury or property
damage.
8. The load should be evenly distributed. Adjust pads to keep bar level
during lifting.
9. Only use with included safety chains properly connected to prevent
overextension.
10. DO NOT move or dolly the vehicle while on the Crossbeam.
11. Use as intended only. DO NOT use for lifting human weight. Keep
clear of raised load.
12. Use only on a hard, level and flat surface capable of bearing the
combined weight of the Crossbeam, the floor jack, load being lifted,
the operator and any tools being used.
13. Lift vehicle only at manufacturer-recommended locations.
14. Install and use aligned perpendicular to floor jack body only.
15. If you are working and the load becomes off-balance and/or the
jack begins to tip over, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CATCH OR LIFT THE
LOAD WHEN FALLING. SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY CAN RESULT! In
this event, clear the area as quickly and safely as possible in order
to avoid injury from the falling load, including getting hit with flying
fragments.
16. Before each use, inspect the general condition of the Crossbeam. If
a problem occurs, have the problem corrected before further use.
17. If in doubt about the safety of your project, we advise you to have
the work done by a professional familiar with applicable safety
practices.
18. This is a lifting device only. Immediately after lifting, support the
vehicle with appropriate means.
19. The use of jack stands is considered the only safe way to work
under or around a vehicle. Only one end or side of the car should
be supported at a time. The wheels not supported need to be
chocked.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Remove Saddle Connection Bolt and Saddle from Floor Jack.
2. Place Crossbeam on Floor Jack.
3. Slide Spacer (11) onto Connection Bolt (10) before installing it if
necessary.
4. Install Crossbeam’s Connection Bolt and tighten it securely in place
while keeping Crossbeam aligned perpendicular to floor Jack body.
MAINTENANCE
1. Lower both Saddle Pads completely. Align each Saddle Pad under a
vehicle lifting point. Center the vehicle’s weight over the Floor Jack.
Both Saddle Pads should extend equal distance from the center.
WARNING:
Lift vehicle only at manufacturer-recommended
locations.
2. Use Floor Jack to raise Crossbeam until one of the Saddle Pads is
about to contact one of the vehicle lifting points.
3. Turn the Saddle Pads to adjust each one until they both contact the
lifting points.
4. Stay clear of vehicle, Jack and Crossbeam while slowly raising the
vehicle until it is at the desired height.
WARNING:
While lifting, make sure that the Crossbeam
remains level and the load is entered over the Floor Jack.
5. Place two Jack Stands at manufacturer-recommended support
points and adjust until they almost contact each support point.
6. Stay clear while lowering the vehicle onto the Jack Stands. Lower
the vehicle’s weight completely onto Jack Stands before working
under it.
MAINTENANCE
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, adjusting
points, etc. will help to prevent rust and assure that all components
move freely.
STORAGE
Always store the Crossbeam in a well-protected area where it will not
be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or
any other harmful elements.
