Lifting and Jacking
Issue 5, January 2010 Workshop Manual 0-0-9
Lifting and Jacking
Safety
•Recommended procedures for lifting, jacking and
towing must be strictly ob served to ensure personal
safety.
• Always use a vehicle hoist, ramp or pit for working
beneath the vehicle in preference to jacking.
• Never rely on a jack to supp ort a car independently, use
axle stands or blocks carefu lly placed at jacking points
to provide rigid support.
• When working beneath a vehicle, chock wheels as well
as applying handbrake.
• Ensure vehicle is standing on firm, level ground before
jacking or lifting.
• Check lifting equipment has adequate capacity for load
being lifted and is in full working order.
Jacking Points
This vehicle jacking points are at positions shown.
May also be jacked on the front subframe front crossmember
Always use a jack with a rubber contact pad. Avoid use of
jacks with sharp contact pads which would damage floor
pan Always chock the opposite road wheels as well as
applying the handbrake when using a hydraulic jack.
To prevent body distortion, av oid single point or one side
jacking with the tunnel shear panel removed.
Lifting
Workshop Hoist
Use of a workshop hoist is recommended for all operations
where vehicles must be raised. Follow manufacturers
instructions. If using an adjustable arm type, ensure lifting
pads are correctly positioned at the four jacking points
before lifting.
Workshop Jack
To avoid any danger of bodywork damage when using a
hydraulic jack, the vehicle must only be lifted at the jacking
points.
Stands
When carrying out work (other than a wheel change) which
requires a wheel to be raised, a stand must be used, located
at the jacking point, to provide a secure support for the
vehicle.

Vehicle Recovery
0-0-10 Workshop Manual Issue 5, January 2010
Vehicle Recovery
General
Preferred method of vehicle recovery is by flat bed
transporter.
The towing eye is primarily for emergency use when towing
for short distances, e.g. removing vehicle if it is causing an
obstruction or winching vehicl e onto a flatbed transporter.
If moving this vehicle in such a situation, install the towing
eye to the bracket in the lower grille aperture.
Transporting
If vehicle is to be transported on a trailer or flat bed
transporter the handbrake must be applied and the road
wheels must be chocked.
Suspended Towing
Take care when using 'spectacle frame' type towing
equipment that the towing device is well clear of front or
rear apron. Body damage may occur if vehicle passes over
uneven road surfaces.
Front Suspended Tow
1. Remove the ignition key from the ignition.
2. Raise the vehicle using a ‘spectacle frame’ type lifting device with a cradle positioned under each front wheel
as indicated below.
Rear Suspended Tow
1. Set the steering in the ‘straight ahead’ position.
Remove the ignition key from the ignition. Ensure the
steering is locked in the straight ahead position.
2. Raise the vehicle using a 'spectacle frame' style lifting device where a cradle is positioned under each rear
wheel as indicated below.
Adhere to Towing Regulations
In certain countries the regi stration number of towing
vehicle and an ‘ON TOW’ sign or warning triangle must be
displayed in a prominent position at the rear of vehicle being
towed.
To w i n g b y A n o t h e r V e h i c l e
This vehicle may be towed short distances by another
vehicle provided that a speed of 48 km/h (30 mph) is not
exceeded. Ensure the towed vehicle gear selection is in
‘Neutral’ with ignition key turned to position ‘II’ to release
steering lock and to render hor n, indicators and brake lights
operational.
Caution
Take care to protect the paint work when installing the towing eye. Ensure the towing eye is tight.
Caution
Do not tow with ‘sling’ type equipment as this
could result in damage to the bodywork.
WAR NI NG
WHEN THE ENGINE IS NOT RUNNING, THE STEERING WILL NO LONGER BE POWER-ASSISTED AND THE
BRAKE BOOSTER WILL BECOME INEFFECTIVE AFTER A FEW APPLICATIONS OF TH E BRAKES. BE PREPARED
FOR RELATIVELY HEAVY STEERING AND THE NEED
FOR GREATLY INCREASED BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE.
