Emergency situations
such as the engine block or transmission
are removed.
— When removing heavy components like
these, anchor vehicle to hoist or add corre-
sponding weights to maintain the center of
gravity. Otherwise, the vehicle might tilt or
slip
off the hoist, causing serious personal
injury.
@ Note
— Be aware of the following points before Lift-
ing the vehicle:
— The vehicle should never be lifted or
jacked up from underneath the engine oil
pan, the transmission housing, the front
or rear axle or the body side members.
This could lead to serious damage.
—To avoid damage to the underbody or
chassis frame, a rubber pad must be in-
serted between the floor jack and the lift
points.
— Before driving over a workshop hoist,
check that the vehicle weight does not
exceed the permissible lifting capacity of
the hoist.
— Before driving over a workshop hoist, en-
sure that there is sufficient clearance be-
tween the hoist and low parts of the ve-
hicle.
