WARNING & SAFETY INFORMATION!
Study, understand, and follow all instructions provided with and on this device. Do not
exceed rated capacity. This is a lifting device only. After lifting, immediately transfer the load
to appropriately rated jack stands. Never work on, under, or around a load supported by
this device. Use only on hard, level surfaces capable of supporting the load marked on the
equipment. Do not move or dolly loads with this device. Failure to heed this warning may
result in personal injury and / or property damage.
- Never use the car jack to life persons. Do not use the car jack with people inside or leaning
against the vehicle.
- The user must keep an eye on the jack and the load during all movement.
- The condition of the markings on the car jack must be checked regularly and the markings
must always correspond with the original markings.
Do not use the car jack in the following situations:
- Outdoors in frost / rain.
- In severe conditions (e.g. very cold or very hot weather, when exposed to strong magnetic
radiation and similar situations).

- When lifting loads containing the following materials, among others: molten metal, acid,
radioactive material or loose / not firmly connected goods and similar situations.
- In contact with food and similar situations.
- On ships and in similar situations.
To avoid any risk of being crushed or sustaining other injuries: NEVER work on, under or around
a load supported only by a jack. ALWAYS use adequately rated jack stands. If the generated
efforts exceed 400 N (approx. 40 kg), the effort shall be lowered by additional person.
Be sure all tools and personnel are clear before lowering load. Do not alter or modify the car
jack which will adversely affect the car jack’s compliance with standard EN 1494:2000+A1:2008.
