CONVERSION MEASURES RESULTING IN ALTERATION TO VEHICLE MODEL - AH00.10-P-1000-01A

We disapprove of all vehicle conversions resulting in an alteration to the model. A standard production vehicle
is a design entity which, upon installation of parts alien to the model, usually changes in a detrimental way.
Changes to important components influence the homogeneity of the vehicle in its entirety. For this reason we
have not investigated the details to be observed when performing such conversions. Such conversions can also
lead to changes on the vehicle which require new proof that the vehicle complies with legal requirements.
The main reasons for our disapproval are:
1. Subsequent installation of a component such as a more powerful engine may overload the remaining
components such as the transmission, brakes, axles, etc.

Align vehicle between the columns of the lifting platform and position the four support plates at the
lifting platform support points specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
RISK OF ACCIDENT AND INJURY
Please make sure that:
The vehicle is centered lengthwise and crosswise between the lifting platform columns.
The support plates on the lifting platform support points are all positioned at the same height.
The vehicle is first raised a few inches (wheels are still touching the ground) and the position and fit of
the support plates and lift points are checked before raising the vehicle to the full lifted position.
The vehicle is not raised off the lifting platform plates when components are being supported.
If the arms of the lifting platform or the support plates are not positioned properly, or if components of the
vehicle are supported so that the vehicle raises off the platform, then the vehicle can slip off the platform and
cause life-threatening injuries to you or other people.
Before removing axles and assemblies from the vehicle, make sure the vehicle is secured to the platform or that
sand bags are used to balance the vehicle out.
Otherwise the vehicle could tip because of the uneven distribution of weight. This could cause life-threatening
injuries to you or other people.
RISK OF INJURY CAUSED BY FINGERS BEING JAMMED OR PINCHED WHEN REMOVING, INSTALLING OR
ALIGNING HOODS, DOORS, TRUNK LID/ REAR-END DOOR OR SLIDING ROOF. - AS00.00-Z-0011-01A
When moving components, ensure that no body parts or limbs are within the operating range of moving
parts.
Risk of injury
When working on hoods, doors, trunk lids/tailgates and sliding roofs and on their connecting mechanisms,
serious injuries can occur due to cutting, jamming or pinching of body parts like fingers and hands.
Safety instructions/precautions
Be careful when working in hazardous areas.
When moving components, secure the movement area of the mechanism to prevent interference.
Use special tool or other means to ensure safe distance to dangerous areas. NOTE: In Germany, lift platform operators must observe the following regulations and
guidelines: "Berufsgenossenschaftvorschrift (BGV) D29 fur Hebebuhnen" and
the guidelines issued by the lift platform manufacturer. In other countries,
operators must comply with all relevant statutory and accident prevention
regulations.
