essary to work under the vehicle, sup-

use any other part of the vehicle for jack
support.

Never jack up the vehicle more than

necessary.

Never use blocks on or under the jack.
Do not start or run the engine while

vehicle is on the jack. It may cause the

slip

differentials.

Do not allow passengers to stay in the

vehicle while it is on the jack.

Never run the engine with a wheel(s) off

the ground. It may cause the vehicle to
move.

the jack body and the following instruc-
tions.
