HOW TO USE YOUR JACK STANDS
TO SUPPORT A VEHICLE
1.Raise the vehicle or load with an automotive jack.
2.Adjust jack stand height by pulling up on ratchet bar. The weight of the locking handle should lock the ratchet bar into a secure position. To verify this, simply push down on the locking handle to ensure that the ratchet bar is secured.
3.Carefully position the stands beneath the load so that when load is lowered it will contact the center of the jack stand saddles.
4.Always use jack stands as a pair and only on those parts of a vehicle which can be fully captured between the outer lugs of each stand???s saddle.
!Rated capacity of jack stands is per pair, it is NOT the sum of individual capacities unless specifically noted to the contrary by the jack stand manufacturer. Do Not exceed rated capacity. Ensure that the vehicle support points are fully captured between the outer lugs of both jack stands. Use a matched pair of jack stands per vehicle to support 1 end only. Use 1 pair per vehicle only. Failure to do so may result in sudden loss of load, which may cause personal injury and/or property damage.
5.Slowly and carefully lower the load completely onto the stands, ensure that the load is centered and captured as described in Step 4.
6.Check to ensure that load is secure on stands before working under vehicle.
