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.
OPERATION
1. Put vehicle transmission in park or in gear and then apply the emergency brake.
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 jack handle VERY SLOWLY in a counterclockwise
direction to 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.
Once the load has cleared the jack stands, remove the jack stands from under the load and away from the work area. Turn handle very slowly in a counter
clockwise 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.
DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING
OR REMOVING THE JACK STANDS!

DRAGSTER GRAPHICS
1. Remove the 2-piece handle from box. Depress the upper handle lock button and insert the smaller diameter end of the upper handle into the lower handle
end with hole. Make sure the button engages the hole.
2. Grease the inside of the handle yoke so the handle will rotate freely inside the yoke. Remove the handle yoke screw. Insert the end of the lower handle all
the way in the handle yoke until it engages the release valve assembly. Secure the handle in the handle yoke by reinstalling the handle yoke screw and
tightening the screw. Rotate the handle to see if it is rotating the release valve assembly. Pull on the handle to make sure it is secured in the handle yoke.
If the release valve assembly is not rotating and/or the handle pulls out of the handle yoke, repeat step 2.
3.
IMPORTANT:
In most cases the jack should work normally right out of the box but it is not unusual for air to get trapped in the jack’s hydraulic system during
shipping and handling. There are several symptoms of an air trapped hydraulic system which include only partial incremental pump stroke, jack will not
lift load, jack will not sustain load, or pumping feels spongy under load. Pump the handle from its vertical position to its horizontal position to raise the lift
arm. It should take 4 to 4-1/2 full pumps for the JSA350LR to reach maximum height without a load. If the jack does not go to maximum height without a
load in the number of required strokes, follow the instructions below:
a) Rotate the handle in a clockwise direction until tight. Rotate the handle in a counterclockwise direction two complete revolutions.
b) Pump the handle approximately 10-15 complete pump strokes.
c) Rotate the handle in a clockwise direction until tight. Proceed to pump the jack to maximum lift height.
d) Repeat steps “a” through “c” until all air has been purged from the system.
IMPORTANT: Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
