SETUP INSTRUCTIONS

1. To prevent oil leak during shipment, the breather plug
is tightened down to ensure the best sealing function.
Before the first use, losen the breather plug 1 full turn.
2. The reservoir tube is shipped filled with hydraulic
oil. Before using the jack for the first time, press the
release pedal to open the release valve, and operate
the foot pump eight full strokes to distribute the oil.
BLEEDING AIR FROM THE
HYDRAULIC SYSTEM
Air can accumulate within a hydraulic system during
shipment or after prolonged use. This entrapped air
causes the jack to respond slowly or feel "spongy." Use
the steps below to bleed the system.
11. Pump the jack to the highest point where the first and
the second piston rams are both at maximum height.
12. Get the help of another person to keep the release
pedal depressed, and activate the foot pedal about 20
times.
13. Let go of the release pedal; the air in the oil system
should be bled successfully
