First of all, make sure that the car comes to a jack in the space between the sill and the floor of the car. Car jack, including the paddock, you can install only one side of the body.

To raise the front should bring a jack under the seat enhance the structure shown in Fig. 6, to brake the vehicle parking brake and put it for safety reasons on the opposite side of the fence one at the rear and front wheel. At the same time ensure that the rear edge of the head of the jack is in line with the center of the embossed marking. The rear wheel must be secured by placing a brick or wedge stop.

For hanging the rear of the need to bring the jack as shown in Fig. 7, a place to strengthen the structure. In this case, the rear edge of the ram and the head must be aligned with the center of embossed markings. Including transmission and put a brick on the opposite side under both wheels.

Be sure to pay attention to the basis on which is supposed to establish a support, not too soft, so they can not sag. If the wheels Jacks put a board wide enough, then the opportunity will be largely excluded. That same applies to ladders jack. Sometimes it seems that the ground hard, until he discovered that the wheels of the jack slowly subside. The supports can be used only under the board body, but they must have the proper thickness to prevent damage to the body. Will fit a piece of old car tire, mounted between the stand and the body. It is necessary to use a tripod-support (Fig. 8).
| Fig. 9. Install the vehicle on the mini-flyover
|
Mini overpass are the best option for raising a vehicle, since in this case it is possible to do without the jack. When lifting is necessary, of course, see to it that they were delivered just before the wheels to achieve the conservation areas of entry. For additional reliability, the support surface trestle should be a recess for the wheel. Fig. 9 shows how the tire should be placed on the viaduct. Depending on the hand wheel must use the parking brake and engage the gear.
