Vehicle Lifting: Service and Repair








5. LIFTS AND JACKS
When using a lift or jack-ridged rack to raise a vehicle, always follow Instructions concerning jack-up points and weight limits to prevent the vehicle from falling, which could result in injury. Be especially careful to make sure the vehicle is balanced before raising it.













6. TIE DOWNS
Tie downs are used when transporting vehicles and when using the chassis dynamo. Attach tie downs only to the specified points on the vehicle.

7. TOWING
Avoid towing vehicles except when the vehicle cannot be driven. For vehicles with AWD, AT, or VTD, use a loader instead of towing. When towing other vehicles, to prevent excessive weight from damaging the hook or vehicle:
- Do not tow other vehicles with a front towing hook.
- Make sure the vehicle towing is heavier that the vehicle being towed.
