Lifting The Vehicle - E-Z-GO MPT 800 Bedienungs- Und Wartungshandbuch

Read all of Manual to become thoroughly familiar with this vehicle. Pay particular attention to all Notes, Cautions and Warnings
The painted surfaces of the vehicle provide attractive
appearance and durable protection. Frequent washing
with lukewarm or cold water and mild detergent is
required to preserve the painted surfaces.
Occasional cleaning and waxing with non-abrasive prod-
ucts designed for 'clear coat' automotive finishes will
enhance the appearance and durability of the painted
surfaces.
Corrosive materials used as fertilizers or for dust control
can collect on the underbody of the vehicle. These mate-
rials will cause corrosion of underbody parts unless
flushed occasionally with plain water. Thoroughly clean
any areas where mud or other debris can collect. Sedi-
ment packed in closed areas should be loosened to ease
it's removal, taking care not to chip or otherwise damage
paint.

Some servicing operations may require the front wheels,
the rear wheels, or the entire vehicle be raised.
To reduce the possibility of severe injury or
death from a vehicle falling from a jack:
Be sure the vehicle is on a firm and level
surface.
Never get under a vehicle while it is sup-
ported by a jack.
Use jack stands and test the stability of the
vehicle on the stands.
Always place chocks in front and behind the
wheels not being raised.
Use extreme care since the vehicle is
extremely unstable during the lifting pro-
cess.
When lifting vehicle, position jacks and jack stands at the
areas indicated only.
OPERATION AND SERVICE INFORMATION
To raise the entire vehicle, install chocks in front and
behind each front wheel (Ref Fig. 14 on page 11). Center
the jack under the rear frame crossmember. Raise the
vehicle enough to place a jack stand under the outer
ends of the rear axle.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on the
two jack stands.
Place the jack at the center of the front axle. Raise the
vehicle enough to place jack stands under the frame
crossmember as indicated.
Lower the jack and test the stability of the vehicle on all
four jack stands.
If only the front or rear of the vehicle is to be raised, place
the chocks in front and behind each wheel not being
raised to stabilize the vehicle.
Lower the vehicle by reversing the lifting sequence.
