jacking
A jacking point is provided on the
chassis outrigger behind the front
wheel. Whenever possible, use one of
these points to provide a secure
location for a bottle jack or floor jack.
Check that the jack head is properly
located on the jacking point before
starting to lift the vehicle.
If the jacking point cannot be used (for
example, if the jack is too tall to fit
under the side of the vehicle), a long
reach low height floor jack should be
positioned under the front of the vehicle
to lift on the front axle beam.
