If you put a long bolt through the centre-stand mounting lugs it acts just like a centre-stand when you position the 'V' of the lift under the bolt. if you want extra security you can 'grip' it with locking mole/jubilee/lockwire/ties/WHY.
Where I live most of the year there is no-one to help so I use yachting rope through a tie-down over the handle bars fixed to wall hooks/tree to keep the bike upright when I remove wheels etc.
