Care and maintenance
WARNING
The improper use of the lifting platform or
the jack when raising the vehicl
e may result
in accidents or serious injury.
●
Before raising the vehicle, please observe
the manufacturer's instructions for the
platform or jack, and the legal require-
ments, where applicable.
●
There should not be anyone inside the
vehicle when it is being raised or once it is
in the air.
●
Only use the jacking points indicated in
the figures
›››
Fig. 174 and
›››
Fig. 175 when
raising the vehicle. If the vehicle is not lifted
at the indicated points, it may fall from the
platform while the engine or gearbox is be-
ing dismounted, for example.
●
The jacking points should be centrally
aligned and firmly positioned on the plat-
form support plates.
●
Never start the engine when the vehicle is
raised! The vehicle may fall from the plat-
form due to the engine vibrations.
●
If it is necessary to work underneath the
vehicle while it is raised, you should check
that the supporting stands have an ade-
quate load capacity.
●
Never climb onto the lifting platform.
●
Always make sure that the weight of the
vehicle does not exceed the lifting platform
load capacity.
CAUTION
●
Never r
aise the vehicle at the engine oil
sump, the gearbox or the rear or front
axles.
●
Always use an intermediate rubber sup-
port to prevent damage to the vehicle un-
derbody. Check that the arms of the lifting
platform are able to move with obstruction.
●
The arms should not come into contact
with the side running boards or other parts
of the vehicle.
