WARNING:
  • Before applying the hoist arms to the underbody, take in mind the balance of the vehicle on the hoist that should change depending on the parts going to be removed.
  • Before lifting up the vehicle on the hoist, make sure that the hoist arm is not in contact with such components as the brake pipes, fuel pipes and brackets.
  • When using a frame contact hoist, apply the right and left arms to the symmetrically located points shown in the figure. Lift up the vehicle till 4 tires are a little off the ground and make sure that the vehicle will not fall off by rocking the vehicle body. Work can be started only after this confirmation.
  • Make absolutely sure to lock the hoist after vehicle is hoisted up.
