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

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:

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: "Berufsgenossenschaftvorschrift (BGV) D29 fur Hebebuhnen" and the guidelines issued by the lift platform manufacturer. In other countries, operators must comply with all relevant statutory and accident prevention regulations.
