The front of the truck can be lifted with two towing eyes. To lift the front of the truck:
1. Install two towing eyes with the axle in horizontal position.
2. Attach the lifting equipment to the towing eyes.
3. Carefully lift the truck.
CAUTION: The maximum lifting weight for the towing eyes is 3000 kg

a platform.
7.2 JACKING UP THE AIR SPRUNG FRONT AXLE
WARNING! Use the indicated jacking points of the vehicle and
support the vehicle when jacking up. Otherwise the vehicle can fall off
the jack, resulting in the vehicle getting jammed or damaged. This can
lead to dangerous situations and serious injury.
– Before jacking always secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling
away by applying the park brake and/or using wheel chocks. Never
release the park brake while the vehicle is jacked up.
– Always position the jack on a firm and level surface. If the surface
is not firm, place the jack on a support plate.
– When jacking up an air sprung front axle, position the jack only
under the special fixing bracket.
NOTE: Make sure that the top plate falls in to the
chamber in the special fixing bracket.
