SAFETY OPERATION MAINTENANCESETUP
General Operating Instructions
Lifting
Park vehicle on a flat, level, solid, surface safely away from oncoming traffic. Turn off the vehicle’s 
engine. Place the vehicle’s transmission in “PARK” (if automatic) or in its lowest gear (if manual). 
Set the vehicle’s emergency brake. Then, chock the wheels that are not being lifted.
1. Turn the Handle counterclockwise to open 
the release valve and lower the Jack. Once 
the Jack is fully lowered, turn the Handle 
firmly clockwise to close the valve.
2. Carefully position the Saddle of the Jack under 
the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended lifting 
point. (See vehicle manufacturer’s owner’s 
manual for location of frame lifting point.)
3. Pump the Handle until the top of the Jack’s Saddle 
has nearly reached the vehicle lifting point. Position 
the Saddle directly under the vehicle’s lifting point.
4. To lift the vehicle, pump the Handle of 
the Jack. Use smooth, full strokes.
5. Once the vehicle is raised, slide a jack stand of 
appropriate capacity (not included) under a proper 
lifting point referred to in the vehicle owner’s 
manual. Always use two jack stands. Position them 
at the same point on each side of the vehicle.
WARNING! The rated capacity of jack stands is per 
pair, not the individual capacities combined unless 
specifically noted on the product by the jack stand 
manufacturer. Do not exceed rated jack stand 
capacity. Ensure that the vehicle support points 
are fully seated in the saddle of both jack stands. 
Use a matched pair of jack stands per vehicle to 
support one end only. Failure to do so may result 
in the load suddenly falling, which may cause 
personal injury and/or property damage.
6. Center the vehicle’s lifting point(s) on the saddle of 
the jack stand(s). Set the jack stand(s) to the same 
height according to the manufacturer’s instructions, 
making sure that they lock securely into position.
7. Slowly turn the Handle counterclockwise to open 
the release valve and lower the vehicle onto the 
saddle(s) of the jack stand(s). Then, turn the 
Handle firmly clockwise to close the valve.
Lowering
1. Carefully remove all tools, parts, etc. 
from under the vehicle.
2. Position the Saddle under the lifting point. 
Turn the Handle firmly clockwise and raise 
load high enough to clear the jack stands, 
then carefully remove jack stands.
3. Slowly turn the Handle counterclockwise 
(never more than 1/2 full turn) to lower 
the vehicle onto the ground.
4. Lower the Jack completely. Then, store in a 
safe, dry location out of reach of children.
