LIFTING THE VEHICLE
It is recommended that the vehicle is only lifted using a professional workshop post
lift or hydraulic ramp. Wheels should be changed at a Morgan dealership where
the vehicle can be raised using specialist equipment. In an emergency, a jack may be
used to raise the vehicle sufficiently to clear a trapped obstacle from underneath.
NOTICE: Care should be taken not to damage the brake pipes, wiring or any
other components. Care should be taken to avoid burns if the exhaust is hot.
WARNING Lifting a vehicle when using a jack can be dangerous. If the
vehicle falls off the jack at any time you or others may be seriously injured
or even killed.
WARNING Never lift a car when the engine is running.
WARNING Before lifting the vehicle, ensure the road wheels in contact
with the ground are suitably chocked and the handbrake is engaged.
WARNING If using a jack, only lift the vehicle at the reinforced jacking points
(illustrated, red arrows) on the chassis. If using a garage post lift, position
the front support arms further forward under the chassis leg (amber arrows).
Red arrows: Reinforced jacking points on the chassis. Amber arrows: Position for
post lift support arms.
2. Push the J-shaped rod through the undertray with the hook facing the gearbox,
towards the middle of the vehicle. Locate the hook into a hole in the gearbox lever
by lining up the bottom of the slot in the tool with the bottom of the undertray.
The hook is correctly located in the hole when the tool will freely hang.
3. With the flat face of the drift in contact with the undertray, push the drift part
of the tool through the slot in the J-shaped rod to pull down the lever. When
the tool is fully engaged, the vehicle will now freely roll.
