Operating Instructions
Read the ENTIRE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section at the beginning of this manual
including all text under subheadings therein before set up or use of this product.
WARNING!
Use as matched pair to support one end of a vehicle only.
Supporting a Vehicle
1. Make sure the vehicle does not exceed the capacity
of the Jack Stands. Note: Check that the weight
is evenly distributed between the Jack Stands.
You must evenly distribute the weight or the
Jack Stands may fail, causing severe injury
or death. Only apply the load vertically.
WARNING!
If a vehicle drops on the Jack Stands (even
if it is under the weight capacity limit), the principle
of “dynamic loading” takes affect. The force of the
weight falling may cause the Jack Stands to fail. A
vehicle weighing much less than the Jack capacity may
cause the Jack Stands to fail if dropped on them.
Note: Do not move the Handle when the Jack
Stands are supporting a vehicle. The shear pin is
designed to shear in the event the user attempts to
move the Handle while supporting weight. If the pin
shears, do not use the Jack Stands again until the
shear pin is replaced by a qualified technician.
2. Examine Jack Stands for cracks or damage before
each use. Do not use if even a minor crack,
bend, or other damage/deformation appears.
Discard Jack Stand if damaged or deformed.
3. Raise the Handle on each Jack Stand
to completely lower the Post.
4. If your are raising only one end of the vehicle,
block the tires that remain on the ground.
5. Following the instructions in your floor jack
manual, raise your vehicle to just above the
minimum height of your Jack Stands.
6. Slide your Jack Stands to the proper position points
referred to in the vehicle owner’s manual. Make sure
the Jack Stands are on the same point on each side of
the vehicle. Move the Handle up, and raise the Jack
Stands until they are just below the jack contact point
on the vehicle. Center the load on the Saddle of the
Post. Release the Handle so that ratchet catches
on the Pawl. Gently lower the vehicle with the floor
jack. It may drop down a very small amount until the
ratchet catches on the Pawl. Repeat on other side.
WARNING!
Set both the Jack Stands to the same height.
7. Determine if the vehicle is stable. If not, raise
the vehicle and reposition the Jack Stands.
Removing the Jack Stands
1. Raise the vehicle with a floor jack to take
the load off of the Jack Stands.
2. Raise the Handle on the Jack Stands and lower the Posts.
3. Remove the Jack Stands. Use the floor jack
to safely lower the vehicle to the ground.
WARNING!
Do not use Jack Stands as a permanent
stand for the vehicle. Use them only while making
repairs, then immediately lower vehicle to the ground.
