and safe operating procedures before attempting to use. The owner and operator shall be aware that use of this product
may require special skills and knowledge. Instructions and safety information shall be conveyed in the operator's native
language before use of these jack stands is authorized. If any doubt exists as to the safe and proper use of these jack
stands, remove from service immediately.

OPERATION
WARNING: Use only on areas of the vehicle as specied by the vehicle manufacturer. Use ONLY on vehicles
whose support points are compatible with the saddle of the jack stand. Incompatibility may result in structural

both directions to prevent inadvertent movement.
