Transport
1. Replace the Bottom Bar into the Frame. Turn the Release Valve fully
clockwise
using the jacking handle.
2. Fit the jacking handle into the handle socket and ‘pump’ up the jack.
3. Continue jacking until the Limit Plates just come into contact with
the Bottom Bar. Refit both check screws and tighten against the
Squeeze Bars.
4. Using the Jacking Handle turn the Release Valve on the Hydraulic
Jack in an
anticlockwise direction.
This will release the oil
pressure in the jack.
Storage
IMPORTANT! When not in use always:
1. Store the tool in an upright position.
2. Ensure the pressure in the jack is released.
3. Ensure the tool is clean and dry before storing.
Routine Maintenance
1. Before each operation, ensure that the jack has sufficient oil, remove
the filler plug and check that the oil level is correct.
2. Lubricate all moving parts at regular intervals.
3. Grease check screw threads at regular intervals.
Note: Checking the oil level in any way other than quoted in this
manual may severely limit or render the jack inoperative.
