THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
The use of portable automotive lifting devices is 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 secured 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 & follow all instructions before using.
• Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use Jack if damaged, altered, modified, in poor condition, or has loose or missing hardware or
components. Make corrections before using.
• Consult the vehicle manufacturer for the transmission's center of balance.
• Never use a power tool to activate the saddle tilt screws. Operate by hand or socket wrench.
•
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.
•
Never get beneath the vehicle when it is supported by the jack.
• Secure the transmission to the jack's saddle with the anchorage restraint system provided before raising or lowering the transmission.
• Center load on saddle. Be sure setup is stable before working on vehicle.
• Support the engine with a stand before unbolting the transmission from the engine.
• Users and bystanders should wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards.
• Do not use jack beyond its rated capacity. Do not shock load.
• Use only on a hard level surface.
• Adequately support the vehicle before starting repairs.
• Use of this product is limited to the removal, installation and transportation in the lowered position, of transmissions, transfer cases and trans-
axles.
• Do not use any adapters unless approved or supplied by NAPA.
• Do not use (or modify) this product for any other purpose than that for which it was designed without consulting the manufacturer's authorized
representative.
• Always lower the jack slowly and carefully.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
