Warning: DO NOT position the lift
arm pads under the Battery or side
rails, as shown in red.
3. Adjust the height and position of the lift
arm pads to ensure that they are correctly
located.
4. With assistance, raise the lift to the
desired height, ensuring the lift arm pads
remain in their correct positions.
5. Engage any lift safety locks. Follow the lift
manufacturer's instructions.
Warning: Never raise Model 3 when the
charge cable is connected, even if
charging is not in progress.
Warning: Do not work on an incorrectly
supported vehicle. Doing so can cause
serious damage, bodily injury, or death.
Caution: DO NOT lift from under the
Battery. Place the lift arm pads under the

lifting points for Model 3. Lifting at any
other points can cause damage. Damage
