WARNING:
+Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands to
support the frame when you have to get under the vehicle.
+Place wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheel which is diagonally opposite the jack
position.
Example: If the jack is positioned at the LH front wheel, place wheel chocks at RH rear wheel.
Screw Jack
Garage Jack and Safety Stand
CAUTION:
+Place a wooden or rubber block between safety stand and vehicle body when the supporting body
is ¯at.

2-pole Lift
WARNING:
When lifting the vehicle, open the lift arms as wide as possible and ensure that the front and rear of
the vehicle are well balanced.
When setting the lift arm, do not allow the arm to contact the brake tubes and fuel lines.
Put the attachment in the slit of the lift pad to prevent the frame from
slipping.
Use suitable stands at the correct places as illustrated, to prevent
the vehicle from becoming unbalanced.

Tow Truck Towing
CAUTION:
+All applicable local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
+It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid
possible damage to the vehicle during a towing operation.
+Attach safety chains for all towing.
+When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering
system and power train are in good order. If any unit is
damaged, a dolly must be used.
+When towing with the front wheels on the ground:
Turn the ignition key to the ``OFF'' position and secure the
steering wheel in a straight-ahead position with a rope or
similar device. Never place the ignition key in the ``LOCK''
position. This will result in damage to the steering lock
mechanism.
+When towing manual transmission models with the rear
wheels on the ground:
Release the parking brake and move the gearshift lever to
neutral (``N'' position).
+For 4-wheel drive models:
Set the manual-lock free-running hubs to the free position and
2-way lock free-running hubs to the auto position. (See
``
Transfer case shifting procedures for 4-wheel drive
vehicles'' in ``Starting and driving'' section.) Move the transfer
case shift lever into the ``2H'' position and the transmission shift
lever into the neutral (``N'') position.
Do not shift the transfer lever to the ``4L'' position. This will
cause damage to the transmission.
NISSAN recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated.
If you have to tow a manual transmission model with front
wheels raised (with rear wheels on ground)
Observe the following restricted raising heights.
+Do not raise the front end over!.
Wagon
!= 600 mm (23.62 in)
Hardtop
!= 500 mm (19.69 in)

If you have to tow an automatic transmission model
with four wheels on ground or tow an automatic
transmission model with front wheels raised (with rear
wheels on ground)
Observe the following restricted towing speeds, distances and rais-
ing heights.
+Speed: Below 50 km/h (30 MPH)
+Distance: Less than 65 km (40 miles)
+Do not raise the front end over!.
Wagon
!= 600 mm (23.62 in)
Hardtop
!= 500 mm (19.69 in)
If the speed, distance or height must necessarily be greater,
remove the propeller shaft beforehand to prevent damage to the
transmission.
CAUTION:
+Never tow your vehicle from the rear (i.e., backward) with
four wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and
expensive damage to the transmission.
+Be sure to place the transfer case shift lever into the ``2H''
position and the transmission shift lever into the neutral
(``N'') position if the vehicle is to be towed.
TOWING HOOKS
The towing hooks are provided only for emergency.
+Use the towing hooksonly, not other parts of the vehicle.
Otherwise, the vehicle body will be damaged.
+Use the towing hooksonlyto free a vehicle stuck in sand,
snow, mud, etc.Nevertow the vehicle for long distances using
only the towing hooks.
+The towing hook is under tremendous force when used to free
a stuck vehicle. Always pull the cable straight out from the front
or rear of the vehicle.Neverpull on the hook at a sideways
angle.
