Assembly
Seize cylinder with both hands (OBS: Mind the
fingers!). Place piston rod in hole and tighten the wing
screw (64). Place pumping handle in tipping gear and
screw locking screw completely into slot in handle.
Lubricate all moving parts.
Use
Lifting: Activate lever tube up and down using full
strokes. For a high lift, lift load to maximum with the
low saddle, support it safely, then lift by the saddle on
top of cylinder.
Lowering: Pull lever tube up, then slowly turn
clockwise.
Transport
When transporting jack, step on the nut (73) and pull
back the handle to lock it. The jack can now be driven
on the two big wheels.
Maintenance
Maintenance and repair must always be carried out by
qualified personnel.
Daily: Inspect jack for damages.
Monthly: Lubricate all mechanical parts with a few
drops of oil, and grease the end of the pump piston.
Oil refill: Correct oil level is up to lower edge of filling
hole (68) with the jack fully down and vertical cylinder.
Too much oil causes poor pumping.
Quantity of oil: 0,5 l.
Any good hydraulic oil of viscosity ISO VG 15 can be
used.
NEVER USE BRAKE FLUID!
Safety Inspection
According to national legislation – minimum once
a year though – the jack must be inspected by a
professional: damages, wear and tear, adjustment
of the safety valve, hydraulic unit for leakages.
Furthermore that all safety labels are legible.
Trouble shooting
1. The jack does not lift to maximum height: check oil
level.
2. Poor pump function (half strokes): vacuum in the
reservoir. Loosen filling plug (68) and drain any
excess oil.
3. Problems with the release system: Readjust the
play between handle in neutral and release bracket
(16) to be 2 – 4 mm by loosening or tightening the
two nuts (45) (Please observe: the release shaft
(30) shall not rotate).
4. Air in the hydraulic system: Bleed the system.
Pump to half stroke; turn jack upside down resting
on the cylinder and then release.
5. The load is dropping: leaking pump valves or worn
seals.
Spare parts
Maintenance and repair must always be carried out
by qualified personnel. Replace worn or broken parts
with genuine jack manufacturer supplied parts only. All
major parts may not be provided after discontinuation
of a model.
Destruction
Oil must be drained off and legally disposed of.
