2.5 LIFTING INSTRUCTIONS
Use extreme caution lifting or working on or around lifted vehicle. Vehicle should be on a flat,
hard and level surface.
When lifting the vehicle for service, remove key and use a sturdy lifting device such as a hoist or floor jack
placed under the Chariot body. Always block wheels to prevent it from rolling. After the body is lifted 4 to
6 inches from the floor, place a suitable device under vehicle frame to support vehicle weight. An example
is a 4” x 6” wooden block.
If vehicle is raised while loaded, check that the load is secured before lifting. Failure to do so
could cause damage to the vehicle, the load or cause personal injury.
