el floor such as a concrete floor. Prior to raising

fere with the safe and proper raising of the ma-
chine. Always chock or block wheels. Used jack
stands or solid wood blocks to support the raised

ported by blocks or jack stands, the machine may
move or fall, which may result in personal injury.

curely under the front wheel motor.
