WARNING: To prevent personal injury and/or damage to equipment,
• Read, understand, and follow instructions and safety precautions, including ASME PASE, Part 10 for service jacks. If the operator cannot
read these instructions, operating instructions and safety precautions must be read and discussed in the operator's native language.
• Before using the service jack to lift a vehicle, refer to the vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces on the vehicle chassis.
• Wear eye protection that meets ANSI Z87.1 and OSHA standards.
• Inspect the jack before each use; do not use the jack if it's damaged, altered, or in poor condition.
• Use the jack for lifting purposes only; use approved safety stands to support the axles before working on the vehicle.
• Never exceed the rated lifting capacity of the jack.
• Use the jack on a hard, level surface. The jack must be free to roll without obstruction while lifting or lowering the vehicle. The wheels
of the vehicle must be in the straight-ahead position, with the hand brake released.
• Center the load on the jack saddle. Off-center loads can damage seals and cause jack failure.
• Lift only dead weight. Do not move the jack while it is supporting a vehicle.
• Stay clear of lifted loads. Use approved safety stands to support the axles before making repairs. Do not use blocks or other extenders
between the saddle and the load being lifted.
• Do not adjust the safety valve.
• Lower the jack slowly and carefully while watching the position of the jack saddle.
• Use only approved hydraulic fluid (Chevron AW Hydraulic Oil MV or equivalent). The use of alcohol, hydraulic brake fluid, or transmission oil could
damage seals and result in jack failure.
• Do not modify the jack, or use adapters, unless approved or supplied by OTC.
