Frame Contact Hoist

Vehicle Lift Points:

WARNING: WHEN HOISTING AT LIFT POINTS, ESPECIALLY FRONT LIFT POINTS, BE CAREFUL OF CONTACTING BRAKE LINES AND FUEL LINES.

CAUTION
^ All four contact points must contact the adapters.
^ Never use the differential housing as a lift point (applies to all rear wheel drive vehicles).

NOTE: Before hoisting the vehicle. verify that there is sufficient clearance between the hoist and the exhaust system components.

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

Exercise care when hoisting vehicles equipped with catalytic converter(s). On vehicles so equipped, verify necessary clearance between hoist and exhaust system components before energizing hoist.

Vehicles with unitized body-frame construction require special precautions and procedures when the vehicle is jacked up or hoisted. In some cases, special hoist adapters must be used as recommended by specific hoist manufacturers.
