required. Replace cover. NOTE: Use a good quality jack oil, such as SEALEY HYDRAULIC JACK OIL.

TROUBLE SHOOTING

IF JACK WILL NOT LIFT LOAD
6.1.1. Oil level may be low. Check oil level as described in section 5.6. and top up if necessary.
6.1.2. To ensure complete distribution of the oil go through the following procedure:

four times.
This procedure also thoroughly flushes the valves and in most cases will restore the jack to full working order. The jack may have air
