A technician needs to raise the front end of a vehicle to perform an undercarriage inspection. Arrange the following steps in the correct chronological order to safely lift and support the vehicle.
- 1Park the vehicle on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and place wheel chocks against the rear wheels.
- 2Position the hydraulic floor jack beneath the manufacturer-specified front lift point and raise the vehicle.
- 3Position rated jack stands beneath the designated structural support points and lower the jack until the weight rests entirely on the stands.
- 4Gently push or rock the vehicle to verify that it is completely stable on the stands before performing any work.
Cevap
The correct sequence begins with immobilizing the vehicle and chocking the wheels, raising the vehicle with a floor jack at the specified lift point, placing jack stands and lowering the vehicle onto them, and finally verifying stability before beginning inspection.
The correct sequence ensures full safety at each phase: first immobilizing the vehicle to prevent rolling, second using a hydraulic jack only for dynamic lifting at reinforced points, third transferring the load onto mechanical jack stands for static support, and fourth performing a physical stability check prior to work.
