Lifting Instructions

CAUTION: Do not allow the lifting pads to contact the suspension components. vehicle damage may occur if care is not exercised when positioning the lifting pads of twin-post hoists prior to lifting the vehicle.

Hoist, Drive On
To prevent possible damage to the underbody, do not drive the vehicle onto the drive on hoist without first checking for possible interference between the upright flanges of the hoist rails and the underbody. Should there be interference, the hoist flanges should be modified as necessary and/or the approach ramps built up to provide the necessary clearance.

Hoist, Frame Contact

CAUTION: All four contact points must contact the adapters.

On frame contact hoists, adapters are necessary to lift the vehicle. The adapters must be placed at the four contact points. Position the adapters so they are centered on the contact points.

Hoist, Twin Post

CAUTION: Never allow the vehicle to be lifted by suspension components.

When hoisting a vehicle, always position the lifting pads so that they are in contact with the vehicle frame.
