and movement
2. Position the jack near desired lift point.
3. Set the Parking Brake in the vehicle.

Continue to pump the jack handle to lift the
vehicle to the desired height. After lifting, support
the load with appropriately rated vehicle support
stands before working on the vehicle.
LOWERING THE JACK

jack stands to be removed, then carefully remove
jack stands.
2. Remove support stands.

Securely hold on to the jack handle so your

turning the handle counterclockwise. (Do not
allow bystanders around the jack or under the
load when lowering the jack.
