To prevent possible injury or death resulting from a
vehicle falling from a jack, be sure the vehicle is on a
firm and level surface. Never go beneath a vehicle while
it is supported by a crane or jack. Use jack stands and
test the stability of the vehicle. Always place chocks in
front and behind the wheels not being raised. Use
extreme care when lifting due to the 3-point wheel
design which is extremely unstable when lifting,
especially lifting the rear.
The vehicle should only be lifted high enough to remove the
front axle or rear wheels. Position jacks and jack stands only
on the areas indicated (Figure 16).

Lifting the front: To remove a front wheel or axle: First
chock the front and rear of the rear tires. Loosen the front
wheel hardware. Position the jack in the location indicated
and carefully raise the front of the vehicle, taking care that
the rear wheels do not move. Position jack stands in the
locations indicated and slowly lower the vehicle to rest on
the jack stands and test the stability of the vehicle.
Lifting the rear: To remove a rear wheel or axle: First raise
the front of the vehicle as previously described and support
on jack stands. Then position the jack in the position
indicated at the rear of the vehicle. Carefully raise the rear
of the vehicle with the jack and place two jack stands in the
positions indicated. Slowly lower the vehicle to rest on the
jack stands and test the stability of the vehicle. Lower the
vehicle by reversing the lifting sequence.
