Your going to need about a 200-300 lb weight on the front prop. If you try to jack it without the weight or the tasil stand the airplane is going to sit on its tail and you'll end up with some major damage.

We use both a nose weight with at least two straps to the engine and back it up with the tail stand under one of the boots at the boom tiedown point. You can use an adjustable tail stand ontop of a 55 gal drum. You go up slowly and adjust the tail stand as you go up. The strut doors have to be about 34" above the ground. You deffinitely want to do it in a hanger

Once you have the aircraft at the proper height, then you add the nose jack at the forward jack point to stabilize the aircraft and so you can get in it without the nose going down. If you have a cargo pod, place a 2x4 by about 36" long laterally between pod and jack.
