IMPORTANT: Do not carry the jack by the jacking lever.
Lifting a Load
1. Position the load on the toe of the jack.
W W A A R R N N I I N N G G : :
IMPORTANT: When lifting by the toe, wedge the head of the jack on the load to avoid bending the column.
2. Turn the release valve knob in a clockwise direction until it is snug.
3. Pump the jacking lever in an up and down motion.
Lowering a Load
1. Slowly loosen the release valve knob by turning it in a counterclockwise direction. The more the knob is loosened,
the faster the load will be lowered. To stop the jack from lowering a load, tighten the release valve knob by turning
it in a clockwise direction.
IMPORTANT: The greatest single cause of failure in hydraulic units is dirt. Keep the jack clean and well
lubricated to prevent foreign matter from entering the system. If the jack has been exposed to rain, snow,
sand, or grit, it must be cleaned before it is used.
1. When the jack is not in use, keep the piston and pump rods fully retracted. Store the jack on its base and in a well
protected area where it will not be exposed to corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any other harmful elements.
2. Visually inspect the jack before each use. Take corrective action if any of the following problems are found:
a. Cracked or damaged housing
b. Excessive wear, bending, or other damage
c. Leaking hydraulic fluid
d. Scored or damaged piston rod
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
