Risk of death caused by vehicle slipping or toppling off of the lifting platform. - AS00.00-Z-0010-01A

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 11 other vehicles, including the 2014 Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG, 2013 Mercedes-Benz C63, 2012 Mercedes-Benz C63, 2011 Mercedes-Benz C63, and 2011 Mercedes-Benz C350. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Align vehicle between the columns of the lifting platform and position the four support plates at the lifting platform support points specified by the vehicle manufacturer.

RISK OF ACCIDENT AND INJURY

Please make sure that:

The vehicle is centered lengthwise and crosswise between the lifting platform columns.
The support plates on the lifting platform support points are all positioned at the same height.
The vehicle is first raised a few inches (wheels are still touching the ground) and the position and fit of the support plates and lift points are checked before raising the vehicle to the full lifted position.
The vehicle is not raised off the lifting platform plates when components are being supported.

If the arms of the lifting platform or the support plates are not positioned properly, or if components of the vehicle are supported so that the vehicle raises off the platform, then the vehicle can slip off the platform and cause life-threatening injuries to you or other people.

Before removing axles and assemblies from the vehicle, make sure the vehicle is secured to the platform or that sand bags are used to balance the vehicle out.

Otherwise the vehicle could tip because of the uneven distribution of weight. This could cause life-threatening injuries to you or other people.

NOTE: In Germany, lift platform operators must observe the following regulations and guidelines: "BG regulations (BGV) D29 for lifts" and the guidelines issued by the lift platform manufacturer. In other countries, operators must comply with all relevant statutory and accident prevention regulations.
