Safety information
WARNING
♦ Before driving onto a lifting platform ensure there is suffi‐
cient clearance between low lying components and lifting
platform.
♦ Before driving a vehicle onto a lifting platform it must be
ensured that the vehicle weight does not exceed the per‐
missible lifting capacity of the platform.
♦ Lift vehicle only at points indicated in figure to avoid dam‐
aging vehicle underbody or tipping vehicle.
♦ Never start engine and engage a gear with vehicle lifted
as long as even one driven wheel has contact with the
floor! Disregarding these warnings risks the danger of an
accident!
♦ If work is to be performed under vehicle, the vehicle must
be supported by suitable stands.
