A document outlining the designated locations on a motor vehicle where it can be safely raised using lifting equipment, typically provided in Portable Document Format (PDF). These guides are essential for ensuring secure and damage-free lifting operations during maintenance, repair, or inspection procedures. An example would be a manufacturer-specific document detailing the approved jacking locations for a particular car model.
These resources are vital for technicians and vehicle owners, preventing potential damage to the vehicle’s undercarriage, chassis, or other critical components. Correct lifting procedures contribute significantly to workplace safety by reducing the risk of vehicle instability or collapse. Historically, reliance on generalized lifting techniques led to increased incidents of damage and injury, highlighting the need for model-specific and standardized location documentation.
