Lifting information
– If, as a result of a flat tyre, there is insufficient height to place the
jack, roll the wheel on to a solid increase.
– Always use stands to support the chassis when working under a
vehicle resting on a jack or lifting device.
– Do not perform any work underneath a vehicle when the vehicle
rests on a jack or lifting device.
CAUTION: Do not jack up under the protection bar at the front of the
vehicle. This is a protection bar made of sheet metal. If you jack up the
vehicle under the protection bar it collapses.
7.3 LIFTING AT THE BACK
There are no special facilities to lift the truck at the back.
7.4 JACKING UP THE REAR AXLE
WARNING! Not using the indicated jacking points of the vehicle and
supporting the vehicle when jacking up can lead to the vehicle falling
off the jack, resulting in getting jammed or damage to the vehicle. This
can lead to dangerous situations and serious injury.
– Always place the vehicle on a firm and level surface.
– Before jacking always secure the vehicle to prevent it from rolling
away by applying the parking brake and/or using wheel chocks.
Never release the parking 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.
– Position the jack only under the spring attachment when the rear
axle must be jacked up.
– To prevent deformation of the axle housing, the jack must under no
circumstances be located directly under the axle housing or the
differential casing.
– Always use stands to support the chassis when carrying out
repairs or service under a vehicle which rests on a jack.
– Do not carry out any work underneath a vehicle that is only
supported by a jack or lifting gear.
