Lifting the vehicle with a workshop lift

and jack

WARNING

♦ Before positioning the vehicle onto a lift, it is necessary to

make sure that there is enough space between the lift and

the lower body parts.

♦ The vehicle may only be lifted in the support points indi‐

cated in illustration, in order to avoid damaging the vehicle

floor and prevent the vehicle from tipping.

♦ Never start the engine and engage a gear with the vehicle

lifted, even if only one drive wheel is on the floor. If these

guidelines are not followed, there will be risk of an acci‐

dent!

♦ When it is necessary to work under the vehicle, it must be

supported onto appropriate stands.

♦ Before placing a vehicle on an lift, make sure that the ve‐

hicle weight does not exceed the authorized load capacity

of the lift.

♦ To prevent damage, always use a suitable rubber or

wooden support.

♦ Under no circumstances must the vehicle be lifted by the

oil crankcase, transmission, front or rear axles.

♦ The vehicle must not be lifted by the vertical reinforcement

of the longitudinal member.
