4.1. Preparation
pWARNING! Before lifting, ensure that you have read,
understood and apply Section 1 safety instructions.
4.1.1. Prepare vehicle as described in safety instructions ensuring
the ground on which jack is to stand is level and solid (not

in either the upper, middle or lower locking position (fig.1). To
lock the jack handle, turn the locking lever clockwise until it
releases from the housing and locks the jack handle in the
desired locking position (fig.2).
4.1.3 With the jack handle locked, position the jack saddle under the
vehicle manufacturer's recommended lifting point (refer to
