OPERATION
RAISING A VEHICLE
1. Ensure the vehicle is stable and is on firm level ground with the wheels
chocked before positioning the jack so that is directly beneath the lifting
point. DO NOT rely upon the vehicle handbrake alone to prevent vehicle
movement.
2. Ensure the jack is on solid ground. If not, place a suitable piece of solid
wood of sufficient size to provide adequate support beneath the jack.
3. Consult the vehicle owners manual to ascertain the location of suitable
jacking points and position the jack beneath the designated lifting point.
4. Locate the slotted end of the jack handle on to the release valve and turn
fully clockwise to close the valve.
5. Set the screw extension (CTB10 & 12 models) in contact with the lifting
point. Pump the handle and raise the ram so that the jack and lifting point
are in full contact. Before proceeding further, make one final check to
ensure that:
• the jack is completely vertical and stable.
• there are no obstructions to the lift and that the handle can move
freely up and down.
• all personnel are in a safe position.
6. When satisfied, continue to pump the handle and lift the load to the height
required.
7. NEVER allow anyone to get beneath the load until it is firmly supported on
suitable, properly rated axle stands.
LOWERING THE VEHICLE
1. The lowering speed is controlled by the amount you turn the release valve.
With the axle stands removed, check to ensure that there are no personnel
WARNING: ENSURE THE SAFETY PRECAUTIONS ARE STRICTLY FOLLOWED.
NO RESPONSIBILITY CAN BE ACCEPTED FOR INCORRECT USE OF THE
JACK
WARNING: ALWAYS LOWER IN A SLOW AND CONTROLLED MANNER, AND
CHECK THAT THERE ARE NO OBSTACLES IN THE PATH OF THE LOAD’S
DESCENT. BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL WHEN LOWERING HEAVY LOADS.
