Safe vehicle lifting

            0

To safely jack up the vehicle, do the following:

1. Park the vehicle on a level, firm surface.

2. Before lifting, free the car from foreign objects. Get out of the trunk in advance everything you need for repairs (spare parts, tools), as access to a raised vehicle may be difficult or impossible.

3. Install the jack only under those places that are intended for this. The power elements of the body in these places are specially thickened and have increased strength.

4. Place wheel chocks under the wheels of the vehicle on the side opposite to the one being lifted.

5. To prevent the jack from sinking and being pressed into the ground, place a board under it (20x20x2 cm).

6. Bring the thrust head to the car body, while the jack should be perpendicular to the supporting surface.

7. Before jacking up the car to the required height, carefully check again if it has tilted in any direction.

8. Also install the supports only under the places specially designed for lifting the car. Between the support and the car body, place a rubber or wooden gasket.

9. Install the tripod support so that two of its legs are on the side of the car body, and one is on the outside.

When using a lift to lift the vehicle, observe the following safety precautions.

1. When lifting and lowering the car, it is forbidden to be near it in order to avoid an accident.

2. If there is a danger of the car falling, immediately leave the danger area.

3. Correctly position the center of gravity of the vehicle on the lift to prevent it from falling.


4. Take care of your feet so as not to press them with the paws of the lift or the wheels of the car when lowering.

5. Do not apply excessive force to the lift controls.

6. Only qualified personnel should operate the lift.

7. Avoid excessive rocking of the vehicle on the lift.

8. Install the lift legs only under those places that are intended for this. The power elements of the body in these places are specially thickened and have increased strength.

9. When removing heavy components and assemblies from a car on a lift, install additional supports.
