until it has been examined by a qualified serviceman.
3. Do not let cord or hoses come in contact with hot manifolds or moving fan blades.
4. If an extension cord is necessary, a cord with a current rating equal to or more than that of the
equipment should be used. Cords rated for less current than the equipment may overheat. Care
should be taken to arrange the cord so that it will not be tripped over or pulled.
5. Always unplug equipment from electrical outlet when not in use. Never use the cord to pull the
plug from the outlet. Grasp plug and pull to disconnect
6. To reduce the risk of fire, do not operate equipment in the vicinity of open containers of flammable
liquids (gasoline). WARNING: Risk of Explosion: This equipment has internal arcing and
sparking parts which should not be exposed to flammable vapors. This equipment is only suitable
for installation in a garage having sufficient air circulation to be considered a non-hazardous
location.
7. Adequate ventilation should be provided when working on operating internal combustion engines.
8. Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of body away from moving parts.
9. To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not use on wet surfaces or expose to rain.
10. Use only as described in this manual. Use only manufacturer’s recommended attachments.

IN FLOOR SLOPES MAY BE COMPENSATED FOR WITH SPECIAL
LIFTING PADS. ANY MAJOR SLOPE CHANGES WILL AFFECT THE
LOW PROFILE HEIGHT OF THE LIFTING PADS AND / OR THE
UNITS LEVEL LIFTING PERFORMANCE. IF A FLOOR IS OF
QUESTIONABLE SLOPE, CONSIDER A SURVEY OF THE SIGHT
AND / OR THE POSSIBILITY OF POURING A NEW LEVEL
CONCRETE SLAB SECTION. SIMPLY STATED, FOR OPTIMUM
LEVEL LIFTING, THE EQUIPMENT, AT BEST, CAN LIFT ONLY AS
LEVEL AS THE FLOOR ON WHICH IT IS LOCATED... AND SHOULD
NOT BE EXPECTED TO COMPENSATE FOR DRASTIC FLOOR
SLOPE DIFFERENCES.
THIS EQUIPMENT MUST BE INSTALLED ON A LEVEL CONCRETE
FLOOR WITH A MINIMUM THICKNESS OF 4-1/2” THE CONCRETE
MUST BE AGED AT LEAST (28) TWENTY EIGHT DAYS PRIOR TO
INSTALLATION AND HAVE A MINIMUM COMPRESSIVE
STRENGTH OF 4000 P.S.I.
