9. Maintain tools with care. Keep tools clean for better and safer performance. Follow  
instructions for lubricating and changing accessories. Inspect tool periodically, and if  
damaged, have it repaired by an authorized technician.  
10. Stay alert. Watch what you are doing, use common sense. Do not operate any tool when  
you are tired.  
11. Check for damaged parts. Before using any tool, any part that appears damaged should  
be carefully checked to determine that it will operate properly and perform its intended  
function. Check for alignment and binding of moving parts; any broken parts or mounting  
fixtures; and any other condition that may affect proper operation. Any part that is damaged  
should be properly repaired or replaced by a qualified technician. Do not use these Jack  
Stands if either the Handle (6), or the Ratchet Bar (2) are not moving and locking in place  
properly.  
12. Guard against electric shock. Prevent body contact with grounded surfaces such as  
pipes, radiators, ranges, and refrigerator enclosures.  
13. Replacement parts and accessories. When servicing, use only identical replacement  
parts. Use of any other parts will void the warranty. Only use accessories intended for  
use with these tools. Approved accessories are available from Harbor Freight Tools.  
14. Do not operate tool if under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Read warning labels  
on prescriptions to determine if your judgment or reflexes are impaired while taking drugs.  
If there is any doubt, do not operate the tool.  
15. Maintenance. For your safety, maintenance should be performed regularly by a qualified  
technician.  
16. Jack Stands’ capacity. Never exceed the Jack Stands’ combined capacity of 110 Lbs.  
This capacity is with the weight evenly distributed across both Jack Stands. Check the  
owner’s manual of the item to be supported to determine the actual gross weight of the  
item before attempting to support it. These small Jack Stands have a limited weight  
capacity; never attempt to use these Jack Stands for a purpose for which they are  
not designed for. Always center the load evenly across both stands.  
17. Never stand on the Jack Stands. Never stand on the Jack Stands, and never attempt  
to support people or pets.  
Warning!! Stand clear of the Jack Stands when they are being removed or put into position.  
Caution: Always be aware of Dynamic Loading. If you drop a weight on the Ratchet Bar  
(2) it may create for a brief instant, an excess load, which could result in damage to the  
Jack Stands, tipping over of the Jack Stands, and/or personal injury.  
The warnings, cautions, and instructions discussed in this instruction manual cannot cover all  
possible conditions and situations that may occur. It must be understood by the operator that  
common sense and caution are factors which cannot be built into this product, but must be  
supplied by the operator.  
Unpacking  
When unpacking, check to make sure that all of the Jacks’ parts are included. If any parts are  
missing or broken, please call Harbor Freight Tools at the number on the cover of this manual.

Operation  
Operational Warnings  
Warning!! Only operate the Jack Stands on a level, flat, hard surface capable of supporting the  
weight of the Jack Stands and the object to be supported. Use of an uneven or weak  
surface can cause damage to the floor, or cause the supported object to become unstable  
and potentially fall, causing serious damage or injury.  
Warning!! Consult the instruction manual for the object to be supported, to determine the advised  
support points. Only use the advised support points when using these Jack Stands. Sup-  
porting in other areas can cause damage to the supported object and cause the object to  
fall.  
Warning!! Never work under the supported object unless the Jack Stands are supporting the object  
securely.  
Warning!! If the object supported has wheels, the wheels remaining on the ground should be blocked.  
Warning!! When raising or lowering the object, make sure no people are in the immediate area.  
Warning!! Never exceed the Jack Stands’ maximum capacity of 110 Lbs. (evenly distributed over 2  
Jack Stands).  
NOTE: FOR LIMITED SUPPORT ONLY.  
These Jack Stands are designed primarily as a display item. However,  
the Jack Stands do also have limited functional use. If using them to  
support an object, the user must adhere to all safety warnings and  
precautions shown in this instruction manual.  
Supporting an Object.  
Note: When placing and removing the Jack Stands be careful to keep your body and any other  
objects out from under any part of the object.  
1. After the object is lifted by a proper lifting device such as a jack (not included), carefully position  
one Jack Stand so that the saddle on top of the Ratchet Bar (2) is at one of the recommended  
supporting points. Lift the Ratchet Bar (2) until the saddle is as close as possible to the supporting  
point. Verify that the Handle (6) drops into place and the Stopper (3) rests in one of the grooves in  
the Ratchet Bar (2).  
2. Repeat for the other Stand, being certain that the Jack Stands are spaced far enough apart for the  
object to be stable and the weight distributed evenly. If the object cannot be supported properly  
under just two Stands, additional stands or a different type of supporting device will be necessary.  
3. Once the object is safely positioned over the Jack Stands, use the jack or other lifting device to  
slowly lower the object onto the stands. Before putting any body part, or any other object under  
the supported item, or removing the lifting device, verify that the object is secure on the  
stands. When you are satisfied that the object is safely supported by the Jack Stands, carefully  
remove the lifting device.  
Removing Supports.  
1. First, clear any tools or equipment from under the supported object. Make sure there are no  
obstructions and that people are at a safe distance from the supported object.  
Note: Position yourself safely so that you are not under any part of the supported object before  
removing the Jack Stands.  
2. Lift the object slightly off the stands using a jack or other lifting device. Lift the Handle (6) on the  
first stand. The Ratchet Bar (2) will lower, allowing you to remove the Stand. Remove the first  
Stand. Repeat for the second.  
3. Use the jack, or other lifting device to carefully lower the object to the ground.

General Maintenance  
1. Keep the Jack Stands clean and dry.  
2. Periodically lubricate the Handle (6) on each Jack Stand where it connects to the Base (1), near  
the Stopper (3).  
3. Inspect the stands before each use, verifying that they are undamaged, have all hardware securely  
in place, and that they will perform properly. Never use a Jack Stand that is damaged.
