Check Oil Level resp. Fill in Oil

1. Place the floor jack on an even ground.
2. Insert the pumping handle (1) on the release valve (7). The open end of the
pumping handle fits on the square bar of the release valve.
3. Turn the release valve (7) slowly counter clock-
wise. Place a cloth (cleaning cloth) under the re-
lease valve in order to absorb leaking oil and to
avoid soiling the ground.
4. If the release valve is completely unscrewed,
remove it. If oil drops out resp. if the oil is up to
the release valve hole, the oil filling is enough.
If not, place a cleaning cloth under the release
valve and remove the cover plate of the hydrau-
lic cylinder (3) by using a big screwdriver with
dull end. The cover plate is fastened with
four pins on the housing.
5. Carefully prise the oil filling plug (A) out by
using a dull screwdriver. Do not use spiky
or sharp objects in order no to damage the
oil filling plug (A). Fill in high-quality hy-
draulic oil until the oil appears in the re-
lease valve opening. (7). Never fill in brake
fluid, motor oil, lube oil etc.
6. Screw the release valve lightly back and insert the oil filling plug (A) into
place. Move the handle socket (2) with the pumping handle (1) up and down
for several times in order to lubricate the internal mechanism of the hydraulic.
Place the cover of the hydraulic cylinder (3) in place. If necessary, bleed the
floor jack.
