be in the normal ride position before jacking.
JACKING POINTS ON FRONT AXLE 10005
JACKING POINTS ON DRIVE AXLE OEH3B762

Front axle: 20,000 lbs. (9 100 kg);
Drive axle: 40,000 lbs. (18 200 kg).
Warning: Do not jack vehicle with passengers

HYDRAULIC JACK
To raise
: turn release valve clockwise. Insert
handle in socket and raise by pumping.
To lower: remove handle and turn the release
valve slowly counterclockwise.

Never use brake fluid.
Warning: Jack is intended for lifting only. Do
not get under the vehicle or load for any reason
unless it is properly supported with safety stands
and securely blocked.

capacity. Prevent "side loading", make sure load
is centered on ram. Do not push or tilt load off
jack.
TOWING
To prevent damage to the vehicle, use the two
tow eyes located under the back bumper and/or
fixed to the vehicle frame between the front axle
and the front bumper. Use only a solid link tow

required, connect an auxiliary air supply to the
vehicle so the emergency/parking brakes don’t
apply while towing.
