INSPECTION
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the jack, checking for leaking hydraulic fluid and damaged, loose or missing parts.
Each jack must be inspected by a manufacturer’s repair facility immediately, if subjected to an abnormal load or shock. Any jack which
appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE until necessary
repairs are made by a manufacturer’s authorized repair facility. It is recommended that an annual inspection of the jack be made by a
manufacturer’s authorized repair facility and that any defective parts, decals or warning labels be replaced with manufacturer’s specified
parts. A list of authorized repair facilities is available from the manufacturer.
SETUP
Please refer to the exploded view drawing in this manual in order to identify parts:
1. Assemble the two handle halves together by depressing the spring-loaded button on the knurled handle section (#7) and inserting the
upper handle section into the lower section (#8). The spring-loaded button should engage with the hole in the lower handle section.
2. Grease the inside of the handle yoke (#11) and remove the handle set screw (#10).
3. Install the handle assembly in the handle yoke until the bottom of the handle engages with the universal joint assembly (#13).
4. Reinstall the handle set screw in the handle yoke making sure the screw secures the handle to the handle yoke. Tighten the screw.
5. Air may become trapped in the hydraulic system during shipping and handling. Trapped air will affect the pumping performance of the
jack. If this occurs, follow the air purging procedure below:
a) Remove the four screws that secure the cover plate (A) to the jack frame (B) so the oil filler screw can be removed from the
hydraulic power unit reservoir tube (#12).
b) With the lift arm (C) in its down position, look inside the oil fill screw hole. You should be able to see the top of the power unit's
cylinder. The hydraulic fluid level should be no higher than the top of the cylinder. Correct the fluid level if it is not at the
proper height.
c) Pump the jack against a load that is at least 500 lbs. (225 Kgs). After the load is raised, slightly turn the pump handle in a
counterclockwise rotation so the load is very slowly lowered. While the lift arm is lowering, quickly pump the handle 5 or 6 full
incremental pump strokes. After pumping, lower the lift arm to its full rest position.
d) Install the oil fill screw. Rotate the handle in a clockwise rotation until tight and pump the lift arm to maximum height.
Repeat steps "a" through "d" until all of the air has been purged from the system.
e) Install the cover plate (A) with the four screws.
OPERATION
This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT:
Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check
vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
1. To raise load: Turn the handle in a clockwise direction until tight. Position the jack under the load. Proceed to pump the handle in order to
raise
the lift arm to the load. As the saddle at the end of the lift arm gets closer to the load, reposition the jack so the saddle will contact
the load firmly and the load is centered on the saddle. Make sure the saddle is correctly positioned. Raise the load to the desired work
height. Place jack stands of appropriate capacity at the vehicle manufacturers's recommended support areas that provide stable support
for the raised vehicle.
DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING OR REMOVING THE JACK STANDS!
Once jack stands are positioned, turn the handle VERY SLOWLY. Lower the load to rest on the jack stands. Inspect the relationship
between the jack stands and load to make sure the setup is stable and safe. If the setup is not stable or safe, follow the preceding steps
until corrected.
2. To lower load: Follow the procedures mentioned in "To raise load" section of the
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
in order to raise the load
off the jack stands.
DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING OR REMOVING THE JACK STANDS!
Once the load has cleared the jack stands, remove the stands from under the load and away from the work area.
Turn handle very slowly in a counterclockwise direction until the load is completely lowered to the ground. Once the jack's lifting saddle
has cleared the load, remove the jack from under the load. CAUTION: Keep hands and feet away from the hinge mechanism of the jack.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
This is the safety alert symbol used for the PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE section of this manual to alert you to potential
personal injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
1. Always store the jack in a well protected area where it will not be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive vapors, abrasive dust,
or any other harmful elements. The jack must be cleaned of water, snow, sand, grit, oil, grease or other foreign matter before using.
2. The jack must be lubricated periodically in order to prevent premature wearing of parts. A general purpose grease must be applied to all
zerk grease fittings, caster wheels, front axle, elevator arm, handle base pivot bolts, release mechanism and all other bearing surfaces.
Worn parts resulting from inadequate or no lubrication are not eligible for warranty consideration. See page 5 for lubrication instructions.
3. It should not be necessary to refill or top off the reservoir with hydraulic fluid unless there is an external leak. An external leak requires
immediate repair which must be performed in a dirt-free environment by an authorized service center.
