Maintenance
To maintain your Jack:
• Daily. Keep the Jack clean. Dirt, rust, and moisture can cause slow movement or rapid jerks,
both of which damage internal components. Make sure all labels are in place and visible.
• Weekly. Inspect the Jack for cracked welds, hydraulic fluid leaks, missing or damaged parts.
• Monthly. Lubricate the Jack with light oil.
• Every three months. Fully clean and lubricate the Jack.
• Storing. Store your Jack in the fully lowered position; this protects the Jack from corrosion.
Air can make its way into the closed hydraulic system during shipment or after use, which can slow
the speed of the Jack or make it feel "spongy". Purge excess air from the system.
To purge air from the hydraulic system:
1. Make sure there is no load on the Jack.
2. Move the Joystick to the Down position; hold it there for several seconds.
3. Raise the Jack is at its full height.
4. Move the Joystick to the Down position again; lower the Jack to the ground.
The pistons should retract in a smooth motion.
5. If the pistons do not retract in a smooth motion, repeat the procedure.
If the Jack continues to work abnormally, refer to Troubleshooting for additional information.
