Monster Exhaust System Installation
1.
Disconnect the negative
(ground) cable from the battery (if
there is more than one battery,
disconnect both negative cables).
Secure the cable so it cannot
accidentally come in contact with the
post.
2.
Raise the vehicle and support it
securely with properly weight-rated
safety stands, ramps or a commercial
hoist. Take care to balance the vehicle
to prevent it from slipping or falling.
When using ramps, be sure the
wheels are centered squarely on the
topsides. Place the transmission in park
(automatic) or reverse (manual), set the
parking brake and securely block the
wheels that are on the ground.
CAUTION: Do not work under any
vehicle supported only by a jack.
Severe injury may result.
WARNING! The following step
may require the use of a torch and/
or saw. Proper safety equipment
should be used. Failure to use
proper safety equipment may
result in severe injury.
