THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
The use of portable automotive lifting and support 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
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, and follow all instructions before operating this device.
•Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use jack if damaged, altered, 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.
•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.
•Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards (users and bystanders).
•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 transaxles.
•Do not use any adapters unless approved for this device.
•Always lower the jack slowly and carefully.
•Failure to heed these warnings may result in personal injury and/or property damage.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT AVOIDING HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
Failure to read this manual completely and thoroughly, failure to understand its OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS, SAFETY WARNINGS,
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS and comply with them, and failure to comply with the METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS
SITUATIONS could cause accidents resulting in serious or fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
