SPECIFIC PRODUCT WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS
1. Do not exceed the maximum lift capacity (1200 pounds) for the Transmission
Jack. Overloading the Transmission Jack could cause personal injury and/or property
damage.
2. Use of the Transmission Jack is limited to the removal, installation, and
transportation (in the Jack’s lowered position) of transmissions and
differentials within the weight limitation specified. No alteration to the Jack or
adapters shall be made.
3. Never open or adjust the Bypass Valve. (Noted in Figure A, page 6.) The Bypass
Valve is an essential safety device that is factory-set. Adjusting the Bypass Valve
may cause serious personal injury, property damage, or hinder proper operation of
the Transmission Jack.
4. Make sure the Transmission Jack is used only on a dry, oil/grease free, solid,
level, concrete surface capable of supporting the weight of the entire vehicle,
Transmission Jack, and any additional tools and equipment.
5. Prior to using the Transmission Jack, make sure to read and understand all
warnings, safety precautions, and instructions as outlined in the vehicle
manufacturer’s instruction manual.
6. Do not use the Transmission Jack with the vehicle’s engine running. Also,
make sure to place proper support devices (not included) under the vehicle.
7. Do not allow anyone in the vehicle while using the Transmission Jack.
Keep all bystanders a safe distance away from the vehicle.
8. Never leave the Transmission Jack unattended when the Jack is under a load.
9. Always keep hands, fingers, and feet away from the moving parts of the
Transmission Jack when applying or releasing a load. Remain clear of the
Transmission Jack when raising or lowering a transmission or differential.
10. Always evaluate your task before using the Transmission Jack. The
Transmission Jack is designed to support a transmission or differential as individual
components. Assemblies such as a differential with an axle, or a transmission with
bell housing, can be bulky and difficult to balance on the Jack’s platform or cradle.
