Position cup of hydraulic arm under differential casing (1). The differential casing is not central to the axle. Care should be taken when raising the
front road wheels off the ground as the rear axle has less sway stiffness.
Raise vehicle to enable an axle stand to be installed under left hand axle tube (2).
Position an axle stand under right hand axle tube (3).
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on both axle stands, remove jack.
Alternatively, the axle stands can be positioned under the chassis longitudinals at the front and/or rear of the vehicle.
Before commencing work on underside of vehicle recheck security of vehicle on stands.
WARNING: Always chock the wheels when jacking. The hand brake acts on the the transmission, not the rear wheels, and may be ineffective
when the wheels are off the ground.
Reverse procedure when removing vehicle from stands.
Hydraulic ramps
Use only a 'drive on' type ramp which supports a vehicle by it's own road wheels. If a 'wheel free' condition is required, use a 'drive on' ramp
incorporating a 'wheel free' system that supports under axle casings. Alternatively, place vehicle on a firm, flat floor and support on axle stands.
