Lift safely - Audi R8
Episode 1
How do I lift an Audi R8 with a 2-post lift safely and correctly?
Special features of the vehicle: The Audi R8 is a very low-slung vehicle. The pickup points are close to the centre.
Recommendation: As with all low-slung sports cars, use extra flat carrying arms for the R8. When using extra-flat arms, pay attention to the maximum weight load on the arms.
1. For optimum door clearance and ideal weight distribution, drive the vehicle exactly in the middle.
2. Position the vehicle with the rear view mirrors at the height of the column.
3. Place the carrying arms. Turn the pickup pads to the lower position before positioning the arms.
4. rotate the support plates as close as possible to the pickup points. This guarantees the best stability.
5. Lift the vehicle briefly. Now check the position of the carrying arms and whether the carrying arm locking devices are correctly engaged. Correct if necessary.
6. Lift the vehicle to the desired height.
