Lifting Operation
1. Close the release valve by turning the handle clockwise (CW) as far as it will go.
2. Position the jack under the vehicle. CAUTION: To prevent equipment damage, use the manufacturer’s
recommended lifting points on the chassis.
3. Pump the jack handle to raise the saddle to the contact point.
4. Check the placement of the jack; the load must be centered on the jack saddle. CAUTION: To prevent
equipment damage, avoid wheel obstructions such as gravel, tools, or uneven expansion joints.
5. Finish lifting the vehicle by pumping the handle. Do not attempt to raise the jack beyond its travel stops.
6. Place approved support stands under the vehicle at points that will provide stable support. Before making
repairs on the vehicle, lower it onto the support stands by SLOWLY and CAREFULLY turning the handle
counterclockwise (CCW).

is under the vehicle.
1. Lift the vehicle just far enough to remove the support stands from under the vehicle.
