My cabinet shop is an old service station with a center post hydraulic lift. I want to switch out my tires.

Where do I set the lifts arms to raise the BMW safely?

There is no information in the owners manual.

Thanks,


Richard

There are four lifting pads at the edge of the kick panel, 2 on each side.
