2. Operating Instructions

2.1 Safety Precautions

• Always ensure the motorcycle is on a flat, stable, and level surface before attempting to lift.
• Engage the motorcycle's side stand or center stand (if equipped) before positioning the stands.
• Ensure the motorcycle is in neutral gear and the engine is off.
• Never attempt to lift a motorcycle that exceeds the stand's maximum weight capacity of 850 lbs.
• Always have a second person assist when lifting the motorcycle for the first time or if you are unsure about the process.
• Do not sit on the motorcycle while it is supported by the stands.

2.2 Lifting the Rear Wheel

1. Position the rear stand behind the motorcycle's rear wheel.
2. Align the stand's adapters with the motorcycle's swingarm spools or flat swingarm sections. Ensure the adapters make full and even contact.
3. Ensure both sides of the stand are evenly positioned and making firm contact with the motorcycle's swingarm.
4. Firmly and steadily press down on the stand's lever arm until the rear wheel lifts completely off the ground.
5. Verify the motorcycle is stable and securely supported on the stand before proceeding.

2.3 Lifting the Front Wheel

1. Once the rear wheel is securely lifted and the motorcycle is stable, position the front stand under the motorcycle's front forks.
2. Align the stand's fork lift adapters with the bottom of the front forks, ensuring they are centered and making even contact.
3. Ensure both sides of the stand are evenly positioned and making firm contact with the front forks.
4. Firmly and steadily press down on the stand's lever arm until the front wheel lifts completely off the ground.
5. Verify the motorcycle is stable and securely supported on both the front and rear stands.

2.4 Lowering the Motorcycle

1. To lower the motorcycle, gently reverse the lifting process. It is generally recommended to lower the front stand first, then the rear stand.
2. Ensure the motorcycle's side stand or center stand is ready to support the bike as it comes off the stands. Lower the motorcycle slowly and with control.

3. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your BOUDECH Ridelock Motorcycle Stands.

• Cleaning: Wipe down the stands with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt, grease, and debris. This helps prevent buildup and maintains the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect all components for signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Pay close attention to welds, bolts, and adapter connections. Replace any damaged parts immediately.
• Lubrication: Ensure the wheels and any moving parts, such as adjustment mechanisms, are free-moving. Lubricate pivot points and wheel axles as necessary with a suitable lubricant.
• Storage: Store the stands in a dry environment to prevent rust and corrosion. Avoid storing them in areas with high humidity or extreme temperature fluctuations.

4. Troubleshooting

Issue: Motorcycle feels unstable on the stand.

Solution:

• Ensure the motorcycle is on a perfectly flat and level surface. Uneven ground can compromise stability.
• Verify that the stand's width adjustment is correctly set for your motorcycle, providing a snug fit without being too wide or too narrow.
• Confirm that the adapters are properly seated on the swingarm spools/flat swingarm or front forks. Misalignment can lead to instability.
• Always lift the rear wheel first, then the front, to ensure maximum stability during the lifting process.

Issue: Difficulty lifting the motorcycle.

Solution:

• Check if the stand's height and width adjustments are appropriate for your motorcycle model. Incorrect settings can reduce leverage.
• Ensure the stand is positioned as close as possible to the motorcycle's wheels to optimize leverage.
• Confirm the motorcycle's weight does not exceed the 850 lbs capacity of the stand.
• For heavier motorcycles, consider having assistance during the lifting process to ensure safety and ease of use.
