OPERATION
Raising the Ram Plunger
1. Assemble handle, ensure that spring clips align with slots.
2. Place vehicle in the park, with emergency brake on and wheel securely chocked to prevent inadvertent vehicle
movement.
3. Locate and close release valve by turning handle clockwise until firm resistance is felt to further thread
engagement.
4. Verify lift point, center jack saddle under lift point.
5. Squeeze the lift control valve in order to raise saddle to contact lift point. To lift, continue pumping until load reaches
desired height.
6.
Immediately
secure lifted load with appropriately rated jack stands.
Use only the handle provided by jack manufacturer. The handle provided with this jack will safely engage
the release valve. If handle is worn, operates abnormally, or will not positively engage the release valve,
STOP
, discontinue use of the jack until a factory replacement handle can be acquired.
Do not use an extender on the air hose or the operating handle.
Lowering
Make certain that all personnel are clear of the load before lowering.
Control
the rate of descent of the load
at all times
. The
more
you open the release valve, the
faster
the load descends.
1. Raise load high enough to clear the jack stands, then carefully remove jack stands (
always
used in pairs).
2. Slowly turn the handle counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn. If the load fails to lower:
a. Use another jack to raise the vehicle high enough to reinstall jack stands.
b. Remove the affected jack and then the stands.
c. Lower the load by turning the release valve counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn.
3. After removing jack from under the load, push ram and handle sleeve down to reduce exposure to rust and
contamination.
