Default Kwik Lift and casters???

OK, I bought my Kwik Lift second had and it came with the casters.

The casters are obviously sized for the front and rear stands.

How the heck do you use them??

I'm at a loss on this one?? Are they meant for the car only or for under the lift??

Thanks.

It's pretty simple. You put the front casters under the stands. Obviously you can't put the rear under until they are jacked up and lowered into position. So after the fronts are in place you just drive up. Once the weight gets on the ramps they don't slide because they're dug into the concrete. After all 4 sets are under the stands it still takes some effort to roll the whole thing around. At first I aways worried the ramp and car would roll out of the garage but it has never moved.
