Personal safety
Stay alert. Watch what you are do-a.
ing and use common sense when
operating the tool. Do not use the
tool while tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while
operating the tool increases the risk
of injury to persons.
Dress properly. Do not wear loose b.

Proper footing and balance enables
better control of the tool in unexpected situations.
d. Use safety equipment. A

shoes and a hard hat must
be used for the applicable
conditions. Wear heavy-duty work
gloves during use.
Risk of Electric Shock. This tool g.
is not provided with an insulated
gripping surface. Contact with a
″live″ wire will also make exposed
metal parts of the tool ″live″ and
shock the operator.
Tool use and care
Use tie downs or another practical a.
way to secure and support the motorcycle on the platform. Holding
the motorcycle by hand or against the
body is unstable and is able to lead to
loss of control.
Do not force the Lift. b. Use the cor-
rect Lift for the application. The cor-
rect tool will do the job better and
safer at the rate for which the tool is
designed.
Do not use the Lift if the controls c.
do not function properly. Any tool
that cannot be controlled is dangerous and must be repaired.
Store the tool when it is idle out of d.
reach of children and other untrained persons. A tool is dangerous
in the hands of untrained users.
Maintain the tool with care. e. A prop-
erly maintained tool reduces the risk
of binding and is easier to control.

tion. Wear ANSI-ap-
proved safety goggles.

aged, have the tool serviced before
