BEFORE USE
FIT THE HANDLE
1. Insert the lower handle into the
handle socket and tighten the
locking bolt shown to secure the
handle in position.
2. Add the upper handle section
and secure with the bolt shown.
CHECK THE OIL LEVEL
1. Remove the filler plug and check
the oil level.
• Oil should be up to the edge of
the filler hole.
2. Top up if necessary with Clarke
hydraulic oil available from your
local Clarke dealer (part number
3050830).
• Oil grade SAE10, capacity
480ml.
PURGE AIR BUBBLES
During shipment, air bubbles can occur in the hydraulic system which will
cause the jack to feel “spongy” and it may not achieve its maximum lift.
1. Pump the operating handle several times to purge any air from the
hydraulic system.
2. Twist the handle counterclockwise to open the release valve and lower the
jack. Check that the jack descends to its lowest position.
• The jack is now ready to use.
