1. Always ensure your CoverUp Key is in good condition and set up correctly before use. The interchangeable tips and locking pin will eventually show signs of wear after repeated use. Replace these parts accordingly.
2. Make sure you've cleared the area around the manhole, moving and avoiding any potential trip hazards.
3. Select the tip most suited for the manhole you intend to lift. Secure the tip in place by using the locking pin.
4. Insert the tip of the CoverUp Key into the key slot of the manhole. Turn the key 90° to lock it in place. Do not lean over, bend or use the CoverUp Key as a lever at any time.
5. If you find that you are not standing square to the cover, try removing the tip from the CoverUp Key, rotating it 90°, and securing back in place with the locking pin.
6. Stand in front of the manhole with a straight back and your legs parallel to your hips. Do not stand on the manhole.
7. Select the pair of handles which you find most comfortable to use, and taking a firm grip of both handles, lift with a sharp upward action using only your arms. The CoverUp Key will travel upwards exerting a hammer-like effect on the manhole. This may need to be repeated several
   times to release more resistant covers.
8. Once the manhole has been freed, you may use the lower handles of the CoverUp Key to remove some lightweight covers. Larger, heavier covers may need alternative lifting equipment.
