Lifting The Vehicle - Porsche 928 S 1986 Driver Manual

Lifting the vehicle

with its own jack
The jack may only be used at this point.
It is essential that the jack is inserted accura-
tely and correctly into the jacking point on the
underside of the vehicle.
Warning: The jack is only provided to lift the
vehicle for changing tyres. If work is to be
carried out under the vehicle, the vehicle must
be supported on a suitable chassis stand or
similar.
Lifting the vehicle with a lifting
platform or trolley jack
Before driving over the lifting platform, en-
sure that there is enough clearance bet-
ween the underneath of the vehicle and the
lifting platform.
The car may only be lifted from the points
shown in the pictures.
Front: The normal jacking point.
Rear: Bearing bracket for back axle control
arms.
A trolley jack may only be used at the same 4
points as for the lifting platform, and also under
the middle of the back axle. To avoid damaging
these lifting points, a wooden block or a rubber
pad should always be inserted between the
vehicle and the jack.
The vehicle should never, under any cir-
cumstances, be jacked up from under the
oil sump or the gearbox, as this could
cause severe damage.
