5. Take care that no obstruction
prevents a clean lift. Keep all
personnel at a safe distance
before lifting the vehicle.
NOTE:
The jack may move slightly
during operation. It is
important therefore, that
the floor is clean and free
from debris.
6. Position axle stands directly
beneath suitable supporting points on the vehicle, and very gently twist the
control valve release knob anticlockwise.
• This will open the control valve to lower the load onto the stands.
7. To stop the jack lowering at any point, turn the release knob clockwise
again. Always avoid a rapid descent by turning the valve control slowly.
8. Carefully lower the vehicle onto the axle stand, checking constantly,
preferably with an assistant, that the vehicles supporting point rests snugly
and cleanly on the stand, and that the supporting stand is stable before all
the weight is taken.
NOTE:
Ensure this operation is carried out under complete control. DO
NOT allow the load to drop suddenly as this could damage
internal parts.
9. Completely remove the jack from the vehicle.
MAINTENANCE
PURGING AIR FROM THE SYSTEM
If air bubbles become trapped inside
the hydraulic system during shipping
or transport, the efficiency of the jack
will be reduced and the jack will feel
spongy. Air can be purged from the
system as follows.
1. Turn the control handle counter-
clockwise, relieving the pressure
inside the jack, then remove the
cover plate and oil filler plug.
• A broad-bladed screwdriver is required for the plug.
2. Pump the handle several times to purge air from the system.
