From the front
Jack up the car only by positioning
the jack arm at the gearbox/differen-
tial and placing a rubber pad in be-
tween, as shown in fig. 43.
From the rear end
The car may only be raised by plac-
ing the jack arm under the suspension
supports with a flat, compact piece of
wood placed as shown in fig. 44. The jack should only be
used to change a wheel
on the car for which it
was designed. It should not be
put to other uses or employed to
raise other models. Under no cir-
cumstances should it be used
when carrying out repairs under
the car.
An incorrectly posi-
tioned jack may cause the
car to fall. Do not use the
jack to lift loads exceeding that
indicated on the label attached
to the jack itself. Never start the engine
when the car is jacked up.
Detach the trailer,
where relevant, before jacking up
the car.
