THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
The use of portable automotive lifting and support devices is subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means, but only
by the exercise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in the use and operation
of the equipment who are careful, competent, trained, and qualied in the safe operation of the equipment and its proper use. Examples of hazards
are dropping, tipping or slipping of loads caused primarily by improperly secured loads, overloading, off-centered loads, use on other than hard level
surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not designed.
METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
• Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before using.
• Inspect the jack stands before each use. Do not use if damaged, altered, modied, in poor condition, or have loose or missing
hardware or parts. Make corrections before using the stands.
• Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z 87.1 and OSHA standards.
• Do not use beyond rated capacity. Do not shock load.
• Use only on a hard level surface capable of supporting the load.
• Stands are to be used in matched pairs to support one end of a vehicle only. Do not simultaneously support both ends
or one side of a vehicle.
• Apply the emergency brake, put the gear shift lever in park or gear if a manual shift transmission, and chock the tires that will not
be lifted off the ground.
• Center load on saddle. Do not use saddle lugs to support the load.
• Check the stands for solid contact with the ground and vehicle. Make sure the stands' locking pawls are fully engaging the support
columns' teeth.
• Consult the vehicle manufacturer for the proper frame support locations.
• This product contains chemicals known to the state of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. Wash hands
thoroughly after handling.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in personal injury and/or property damage.
