Operating instructions
Important:
During shipment and handling, air
sometimes gets into the hydraulic system
causing poor lifting performance. Before initial
operation, purge any air from system by fully
opening pump release valve (turn handle
counter-clockwise). Then, while holding saddle
down, pump handle rapidly several times.

Raising the jack
1. Close release valve by turning handle
clockwise until resistance is felt. Do not over
tighten.
2. Place jack directly under object to be lifted,
and pump handle to raise saddle to contact
point. Make sure saddle accepts weight
firmly and centrally.
3. Check positioning under slight load to
confirm jack or load will not slip, or move
suddenly.
4. Raise jack by pumping handle until desired
height is reached.
5. After lifting, secure and transfer load to jack
stands or other appropriate means.
Do not
use jack as the only means of support.
