⚠ DANGER Automotive Lifts are dangerous tools when used by inexperienced or impaired
operators. When you even hear the words “Automotive Lift,” your brain should
automatically remember that lifting a
Vehicle is a serious endeavor with life-
threatening risks
. Focus on what you are doing.
Operating the MaxJax Safely
⚠ WARNING Your safety is dependent on reading, understanding, and implementing these
Safety Rules.
Do not skip over them—read them carefully and follow
them; your life could literally depend on it!
Do the following
before
you raise a Vehicle on your MaxJax, do the following each time:
• Check the Lift. Walk all the way around the Lift, checking for any missing, heavily worn, or
damaged parts. Do not operate the Lift if you find any issues; instead, take it out of service, then
contact your dealer, email support@maxjax.com
, or call (844) 629-5291.
• Check the area. Keep the area around and under the Lift clean and free of obstructions;
anything that could impact the raising or lowering of the Vehicle. Do not forget to check
above
the
Lift. Remove obstructions. The MaxJax is intended for indoor use and has an operating ambient
temperature range of +41° to +104°F (+5° to +40°C)
.
Outdoor installations are prohibited
.
• Check the operators. Make sure everyone who is going to operate the Lift has been trained in
its use, has read the labels on the unit, and has read the manual. Only the operator at the Controls
should be within 30 feet of the Lift while it is moving. Do not allow children to operate the Lift. Do
not allow anyone under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication to operate the Lift. Do not
allow any unauthorized personnel to operate the Lift.
• Check for safety. Make sure everyone who is going to be walking near the Lift is aware of its
presence and takes appropriate safety measures. Only put Vehicles on the Lift. When raising a
Vehicle, do not leave it until it is
engaged
on a Safety Lock. When lowering the Lift, do not leave it
until it is on the ground.
• Check the Vehicle. Never exceed the Lift’s weight rating. Do not allow people inside a Vehicle
you are going to raise. Make sure the Vehicle is not overbalanced on either end or either side. You
must use the factory-recommended Lifting Points for the Vehicle. Never raise just one side, one
corner, or one end of a Vehicle. Refer to the Lifting it Right: A Safety Manual from ALI and Vehicle
Lifting Points for Frame Engaging Lifts guide shipped with your Lift.
⚠ WARNING A complete pre-operation inspection is required before using this equipment.
⚠ WARNING The Hydraulic Hoses and connections must be inspected before any attempt to
raise a Vehicle is made.
⚠ WARNING Always promptly clean any Hydraulic Fluid spills. If a leak is the source of the spill,
lockout the Lift to prevent use until the Hydraulic System is repaired.
