THE NATURE OF HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
The use of portable automotive lifting and support devices is subject to certain hazards that cannot be prevented by mechanical means,
but only by the exercise of intelligence, care, and common sense. It is therefore essential to have owners and personnel involved in the
use and operation of the equipment who are careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the equipment and its
proper use. Examples of hazards are dropping, tipping or slipping of loads caused primarily by improperly secured loads, overloading,
off-centered loads, use on other than hard level surfaces, and using equipment for a purpose for which it was not designed.
METHODS TO AVOID HAZARDOUS SITUATIONS
WARNING
• Read, study, understand and follow all instructions before using.
• This stand is designed to assist in stabilizing and supporting a vehicle that is raised by an in-ground or
above-ground lift. Do not use to support a vehicle.
• Inspect the stand before each use. Do not use if damaged, altered, modified, in poor condition, or has loose or missing hardware or
components. Take corrective action before using the stand.
• Do not use beyond rated capacity. Do not shock load.
• Use stands in pairs to stabilize the vehicle before starting repairs.
• Use only on a hard level surface.
• Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z 87.1 and OSHA standards.
• Adequately support the vehicle before starting repairs.
• Center load on saddle. Do not use ends of saddle to support load.
• Be sure vehicle and stand are stable before performing any work.
• Failure to heed these warnings may result in fatal personal injury and/or property damage.
