3. Every jack owner is responsible for keeping the jack labels clean and readable. Use a mild soap solution to wash external
surfaces of the jack but not any moving hydraulic components.
4. Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use the jack if any component is cracked, broken, bent, shows sign of damage or leaks
hydraulic fluid. Do not use the jack if it has loose or missing hardware or components, or is modified in any way. Take corrective
action before using the jack again.
PROPER STORAGE
It is recommended that the jack be stored in a dry location with all wheels touching the ground on a relatively level surface.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Important: Service jacks are self-contained devices used for lifting, but not sustaining, a partial vehicular load. In accordance with
ASME PASE-2019 Load Sustaining Test: “A load not less than the rated capacity…shall not lower more than 1/8" (3.18mm) in the first
minute, nor a total of .1875" (4.76mm) in 10 minutes.” Lowering within this range is considered normal operation and is NOT a
warrantable defect.
PROBLEM
ACTION
1. Unit will not lift rated load.
Purge air from hydraulic system by following procedure under SETUP.
2. Unit will not sustain rated load or feels “spongy” under rated load.
Purge air from hydraulic system as above.
3. Unit will not lift to full height.
Purge air from hydraulic system as above.
4. Unit will not lower completely.
Check oil level. Make sure hydraulic system is not overfilled.
5. Handle tends to raise up while the unit is under rated load.
Pump the handle rapidly several times to push oil past ball valves in
power unit.
6. Unit still does not operate.
