3.1. Before using the jack, purge the hydraulic system, in order to eliminate any air that may
have accumulated during transit, as follows:
a) Fit jack handle over release valve (fig. 1.1) and turn anti-clockwise to open valve.
b) Insert jack handle into the handle sleeve (2) and pump several times to ensure full
internal lubrication and to bleed air from the system.
c) Fit jack handle back over the release valve (1) and turn clockwise to close.
3.2. Lifting
WARNING! Ensure you prepare vehicle and use jack according to Section 1 Safety Instructions.
p
3.2.1. Check that the ground upon which the jack will stand is level and solid.
3.2.2. Position the jack saddle (4) under the vehicle manufacturer's recommended lifting point. Position jack so as
to avoid having to operate it from under the vehicle and so that the handle can be moved up and down
without hitting any part of the vehicle.
3.2.3. Using the screw extension as necessary (not SJ30T), raise the saddle to the lifting point. Ensure that the
saddle is correctly centred beneath the lifting point.
