FEATURES & OPERATION

Operation

Raising the Jack

• Close the release valve by turning the handle clockwise as far as it will go
• Block the vehicle's wheels for lifting stability
• Refer to the vehicle manufacturer owner's manual locate approved lifting points on the vehicle. Position the jack so that the saddle is centered and will contact the load lifting point firmly.
• Pump jack handle until saddle nears contact with the vehicle Check to see that the saddle is centered and will contact the load lifting point firmly.
• Continue to pump the jack handle to lift the vehicle to the desired height. After lifting, support the load with appropriately rated vehicle support stands before working on the vehicle

Lowering the Jack

• Carefully open the release valve by slowly turning the handle counterclockwise

How it Works

With Release Valve Closed

• An upward stroke of the jack handle draws oil from the reservoir tank into the plunger cavity. Hydraulic pressure holds the valve closed, which keeps the oil in the plunger cavity.
• A downward stroke of the jack handle releases oil into the cylinder, which forces the ram out. This raises the saddle.
• When the ram reaches maximum extension, oil is bypassed back into the reservoir to prevent an over extended ram stroke and possible damage to the jack.
• Opening the release valve allows oil to flow back into the reservoir. This releases hydraulic pressure on the ram, which results in lowering the saddle.

MAINTENANCE

To Add Oil

• Position the jack on level ground and lower the saddle Remove the Breathing Screw.
• Fill the oil case until oil level is just beneath the lower rim of oil fill hole. Replace Breathing Screw.
• Perform the Air Purge Procedure described below.

To Replace Oil

• Fully open release valve by turning handle counterclockwise as far as it will go.
• Turn the jack over so that old oil will drain from the oil fill hole.
• Refill through oil fill hole. Keep dirt and other material clear when pouring. Fill to just beneath lower rim of hole. Replace Breathing Screw.
• Perform Air Purge Procedure described below.

Lubrication

• Add lubricating oil (WD-40) to all moving parts when needed.
• For light duty use lubricate every six months.
• For heavy and constant use lubrication recommended every month.

Rust Prevention

• Check ram and pump plunger on the Power Unit Assembly every two months (or sooner, based on usage) for any signs of rust or corrosion. Lift the jack as high as it goes and look under and behind the lifting arm If signs Of rust are visible clean as needed and wipe down with an oily cloth or WD-40
• When storing the jack, always have the saddle and pump plunger in the down position.

ALWAYS USE A GOOD GRADE HYDRAULIC JACK OIL. DO NOT USE HYDRAULIC BRAKE FLUID, ALCOHOL, GLYCERINE, DETERGENT, MOTOR OIL OR DIRTY OIL. USE OF AN UNRECOMMENDED FLUID CAN CAUSE DAMAGE TO YOUR JACK.

Air Purge Procedure

During shipment or after oil refill, air may get into the hydraulic system causing poor lifting performance Then system air purge is required as follows: Turn the release valve fully counterclockwise to fully open the release valve.

2. Pump handle rapidly several times.
3. Turn the release valve clockwise to close the release valve.
4. Pump handle until the lift arm reaches maximum height and continue to pump several times to remove trapped air in the ram.
5. Turn the release valve fully counterclockwise to lower lift arm to lowest position. Use force on saddle if necessary.
6. Turn the release valve clockwise to closed position and check for proper pump action. It may be necessary to perform the above. steps more than once to assure air is evacuated totally.

TROUBLESHOOTING

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Read Operating Instructions
Study, understand and follow all instructions in this manual before operating the jack Failure to heed these warnings may result in loss of load, damage to the jack and/or jack failure resulting in personal injury or property damage

Use Support Stands
After lifting the vehicle always support the load with appropriately rated vehicle supports stands before working on the vehicle.

Do Not Overload Jack
Do not overload this jack beyond its rated capacity. Overloading this jack beyond its rated capacity can cause damage to or failure of the jack

Use on Hard Level Surface
This jack is designed only for use on hard level surfaces capable of sustaining the load. Use on other than hard level surfaces can result in jack instability and possible loss of load.

Center Load on Jack Saddle
Center load on jack saddle before lifting vehicle. Off-center loads and loads lifted when the jack is not level can cause loss of load or damage to the jack

KEEP HANDS AND FEET CLEAR OF THE JACK HINGE MECHANISM AND GROUND CONTACT AREA WHEN LOWERING THE LOAD!
