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.
PROPER STORAGE
It is recommended that the jack be stored in a dry location with all wheels touching the ground on a relatively level surface.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Important: Service jacks are self-contained devices used for lifting, but not sustaining, a partial vehicular load. In accordance with
ASME-PALD Load Sustaining Test: “A load not less than the rated capacity…shall not lower more than 1/8" (3.18mm) in the first min-
ute, nor a total of .1875" (4.76mm) in 10 minutes.” Lowering within this range is considered normal operation and is NOT a warrantable
defect.

ACTION:
Purge air from hydraulic system by following procedure under SETUP.
PROBLEM: UNIT WILL NOT SUSTAIN RATED LOAD OR FEELS “SPONGY” UNDER RATED LOAD.
