The Top Plates are SPRING-LOADED and can rapidly extend 
automatically when unlocked.  Keep face, hands, and other body 
parts away from moving parts. 
 

5.  Start automatic operation of the 

AUTO CRIB-IT

 by slightly lifting 

the top plates.  

CAUTION:  DO 

NOT lift from above the Angle 
Supports.

  The spring action 

will cause the tool to rise and 
the Slide Pin to ratchet across 
the slots in the Channel Base 
until the Angle Supports contact 
the engagement point.  The 
slide pin and channel slot 
provides no-back locking of the 

AUTO CRIB-IT

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. Inspect the 

AUTO CRIB-IT

 engagement to ensure it is secure and has properly stabilized the 

vehicle. 

NOTE: As weight is removed from the vehicle, the vehicle’s suspension may cause its body 
to lift.  In this circumstance, the 

AUTO CRIB-IT

 will automatically rise with the body and lock 

to the new height (provided the height is within the maximum extension of the tool). 

 

   

 

DO NOT EXCEED MAXIMUM LOAD RATINGS 

Model AC-14:  2,000 LBS. MAX LOAD 
Model AC-17:  2,800 LBS. MAX LOAD 

Failure to do so may result in breakage of components and may cause 

serious personal injury, damage to property and/or equipment. 

HINT: 

 Raising the 

vehicle suspension 
manually will bring the 
AUTO CRIB-IT to a 
higher notch to provide 
tighter engagement.
