of the equipment and its proper use. Examples of hazards are dropping,
tipping, or slipping of motor vehicles or their components caused primarily
by improperly securing loads, overloading, off-centered loads, use on other
than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it
was not designed.

SETUP
Install the extension screw (minor diameter end rst) into the 1.
bottom of the lifting tube. Tilt the lifting tube so the extension screw
slides to the opposite end of it and comes through the bearing
housing, bearing races and bearing.
Install the support saddle on the minor diameter of the2.
extension screw and secure it by tightening the allen socket cap
screw included with the saddle.
You are now ready to assemble the stand. The whole stand3.
must be assembled together loosely. All bolts, lockwashers and
nuts will be tightened at the nal assembly step. Install the three
long brace straps on the insides of the three angled legs so the
bottom of the stand forms a triangle. The holes in the brace straps
should line up with the holes in the legs farthest away from the
welded ends of the legs. The shortest of the three size bolts
are used for this assembly and enter into the leg holes from the
outside. The bolt then passes through a hole in a long brace strap
and is secured with the appropriate lock washer and nut.
Repeat step 3 using the three shorter brace straps in the next4.
leg hole locations.
Position the stand upright where the legs that extend from the5.
long brace straps are on the oor. The next series of leg holes up
from the shorter brace straps are used to attach the shortest “L”
shaped brace straps and triangular ange. Make sure you use the
triangular ange that does not include the receiver tube. Install
the longest of the smaller diameter hex bolts through the holes in
the legs so the threaded ends are facing inbound. The bolt should
then pass through the hole in the short leg of the “L” shaped brace
strap and be secured with the appropriate lockwasher and nut.
Assemble all three “L” shaped brace straps the same way.
Position the three “L” shaped brace straps so the long leg of6.
the strap faces up. Place the triangular ange on top of the three
straps where the three holes in the straps align with the three holes
in the triangular ange. Secure the ange to the brace straps using
the largest diameter hex bolts and the appropriate lockwashers
and nuts. The hex heads of the bolts should be facing up.
Position the triangular ange with receiver tube on top of the 7.
welded ends of the legs. The receiver tube should be facing up.
Align the holes in the triangular ange with the holes in the welded
ends of the legs and secure the ange to the legs using the largest
diameter hex bolts and appropriate lockwashers and nuts.
Install the open end of the lifting tube through the receiver tube8.
in the top triangular ange and then through the hole in the lower
triangular ange.
The lifting tube can be positioned at different heights in the9.
stand by aligning any one of its holes with the holes in the receiver
tube. The detent pin that is chained to the triangular ange with
receiver tube can be installed through the aligned holes in order to
secure the lifting tube to the stand.
All bolts, lockwashers and nuts must be tightened at this time.10.
