Safety Checks

Before using the equipment, perform the following pre-operational checks:

• Check the vehicle owner's manual for the correct component weight.
• Ensure the stand is placed on a hard, level surface.
• Conduct a visual inspection for cracked welds, damaged, loose, or missing parts.
• Ensure the component is placed in the center of the saddle.
• Securely support the vehicle before placing the parts stand in position.

Assembly Instructions

2. Place the bearing over the threaded portion while the assembly is in a horizontal position.
3. Spin the adjusting handle clockwise onto the threaded portion.
4. Insert the roll pin through the saddle and threaded column to fasten the saddle.
