not use the Motorcycle Lift while tired or under the inuence of drugs, alcohol, or

medication. A moment of inattention while operating equipment may result in

serious personal injury.

your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or

long hair can be caught in moving parts.

and balance enables better control in unexpected situations.

TOOL USE AND CARE

1. Store idle tools and equipment out of reach of children and other untrained

people. Tools and equipment are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

damaged tools and equipment “Do not use” until repaired.

and any other condition that may affect the Motorcycle Lift’s operation.

If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by

poorly maintained tools and equipment.

model. Accessories that may be suitable for one product may become hazardous

when used on another product.

SPECIFIC SAFETY RULES

1. Maintain labels and nameplates on the Motorcycle Lift. These carry important

information. If unreadable or missing, contact Harbor Freight Tools for a replace-

ment.

product was designed. Do not use this product for a purpose for which it was not

intended.

5. WARNING! Do not exceed the 1,200 pound maximum lifting capacity of this

tool. Exceeding the maximum lifting capacity could cause personal injury and/or

property damage. Beware of dynamic loading! Suddenly dropping a load onto this

product may create, for a brief instant, an excess load which may result in damage

to the product and/or personal injury.

6. Use the Motorcycle Lift only on a at, level, solid surface capable of support-

ing the weight of the Lift and the weight of the object being lifted.

7. Make sure any load being supported by this Motorcycle Lift is well balanced

and centered over the Lift. Unbalanced loads may cause the lift to tip over, po-

tentially causing serious personal injury and/or property damage.

ing supported by the Lift unless the Safety Bar (11) is in place. Always use the

10. Always make sure the object being lifted is properly and safely secured to the

Motorcycle Lift prior to raising the object.

11. WARNING! Do not operate a motorcycle in a closed area or a poorly ventilated

area. When running, the engine of a motorcycle produces carbon monoxide, a

colorless, odorless, toxic fume that, when inhaled, can cause serious personal

injury or death.

12. Always monitor the object being lifted so it does not rock back and forth.
