OPERATION
!
Use only on areas of the forklift as specified
by the forklift manufacturer. Use ONLY on forklift
whose support points are compatible with the saddle of
the jack stand. Incompatibility may result in structural
damage to the forklift and/or jack stand. Structural
damage to either may result in sudden and unexpected
loss of load height!

supplied by the manufacturer shall be used.
1. Adjust saddle height by pulling up the extension
tube, then insert the tube support bar through the
hole on extension tube.
2. Ensure that support bar is secured and nested
across two corresponding radii (see Fig. 1) before
