3.3 Safe lifting
All lifting must be carried out on a flat, nonslip and stable surface. Avoid
freshly laid tarmac or tarmac at high daytime temperatures.
• When lifting the drive wheel, chock the other wheels so that the truck
stands still.
• Select the lifting points so that the lift is as easy as possible (one
corner at a time). If the truck has marked lifting points on the lower
part of the chassis, these should be used for a well-balanced lift.
• Ensure the area where you place the jack is clean and free of oil and
grease.
• Ensure there is no grease or oil on your hands or the jack lever.
• Use the lever supplied with the jack. If the lever is too short, it will
require more effort than is necessary. If the lever is too long there is
a risk that the jack will be overloaded.
• Place supports:
- as close to the raised part of the chassis as possible to reduce the
falling height if the truck tips over
- so that the truck cannot roll.
• Never place a support under the jack to increase the lifting height.
• Never work under a lifted truck without appropriate supports.
DANGER!
Risk of crushing – a poorly chocked truck may fall.
Never work under a truck that is not blocked with supports or secured
by a lifting device.
