Setup
- Unpack: Carefully remove the jack stands from their packaging. Inspect for any shipping damage.

- Prepare Surface: Ensure the working surface is hard, level, and free of debris. Avoid soft ground, gravel, or uneven surfaces.
Operating Instructions
Follow these steps for safe operation of your BIG RED jack stands:
- Prepare Vehicle: Park the vehicle on a hard, level surface. Engage the parking brake and place the transmission in "Park" (automatic) or in gear (manual). Use wheel chocks on wheels that will remain on the ground.
- Lift Vehicle: Using a suitable vehicle jack (e.g., a floor jack or bottle jack), lift the vehicle to a height slightly above the desired support height for the jack stands. Refer to your vehicle's owner's manual for proper jacking points.
- Adjust Jack Stand Height: Remove the locking pin from the jack stand. Raise or lower the adjustable column to the desired height. Ensure the column is aligned with the holes in the main body.
- Insert Locking Pin: Fully insert the locking pin through the aligned holes in the adjustable column and the main body. Ensure the pin is securely in place and cannot be dislodged. The pin is tethered to the stand to prevent loss.
- Position Jack Stands: Carefully position the jack stands under the vehicle's designated support points (e.g., frame rails, axle housing). Ensure the vehicle's weight is centered on the saddle of each jack stand. Use multiple jack stands as needed for stability and weight distribution.
- Lower Vehicle: Slowly and carefully lower the vehicle onto the jack stands using the vehicle jack. Once the vehicle's weight is fully resting on the jack stands, remove the vehicle jack.
- Verify Stability: Gently rock the vehicle to ensure it is stable and securely supported by the jack stands before beginning any work.
- Remove Vehicle: When work is complete, use the vehicle jack to lift the vehicle off the jack stands. Remove the jack stands, then slowly lower the vehicle to the ground.
