BOTTLE JACK
INSTRUCTION SHEET
To reduce the risk of property damage,
serious personal injury, or death when
using this bottle jack, take the following
precautions:
• Do not overload this bottle jack beyond
its vertically applied load rating.
• Do not enter a vehicle supported by
bottle jack. Never allow anyone to work
under a vehicle supported by one or
more bottle jacks. Use jack stands
to support a vehicle, NEVER use or
leave bottle jacks as the only vehicle
supports.
• ONLY use this bottle jack on a hard
level surface capable of sustaining the
load being lifted.
• Only use the bottle jack at appropriate
points on the vehicle that can safely
support the vehicle's weight.
• Always make sure that when the vehicle
is being lifted the jack or lifting point
does not shift and possibly cause an
unsafe lifting condition.
• Always apply the parking brake, and
use wheel chocks against the tires to
prevent accidental rolling.
• Keep as much of your body as possible
out from underneath the vehicle when
placing or removing the stands.
• Never modify this bottle jack.
• Any bottle jack repair must only be
performed by a qualified hydraulic
specialist.
• Never release the jack quickly so the
vehicle drops and slams onto the
wheels or jack stands.
• Never allow children to play with or near
bottle jacks while in use or in storage.
