Before Use
1.
Verify that the product and application
are compatible, if in doubt call Tech Service:
1-800-MAC-TOOL (622-8665).
2. Before using this product, read the operator's
manual completely and familiarize yourself thoroughly
with the product, its components and recognize the
hazards associated with its use.
3. To familiarize yourself with basic operation, locate
and turn the release valve (handle):
a.
Clockwise until firm resistance is felt to further
turning. This is the ‘
CLOSed
’ release valve
position used to
raise
the saddle.
b.
Counter-clockwise, but no more than 1/2 turn
from the closed position. This is the ‘
OPen
’
release valve position used to
lower
the saddle.
4. With saddle fully lowered, remove the oil filler plug.
Pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help release any
pressurized air which may be trapped within the
reservoir. Check oil level.
Fill until oil
nearly
covers
the inner cylinder as seen from the oil filler hole.
Reinstall the oil filler plug.
See page 4, Maintenance
Section for details.
5. Pour a teaspoon of good quality, air tool lubricant
into the air supply inlet of the lift control valve.
Connect to air supply and operate for 3 seconds to
evenly distribute lubricant.
6. This product is equipped with the popular 1/4" NPT
air coupler. When installing a different air coupler of
your choice, ensure that thread tape or compound
is used when servicing connections. To ensure
dependable, trouble free operation an inline air dryer
and oiler is recommended.
7. Ensure that jack rolls freely. Raise and lower the
unloaded saddle throughout the lifting range before
putting into service to ensure the pump operates
smoothly. Replace worn or damaged parts and
assemblies with authorized replacement parts only.
Bleeding / venting Trapped Air
With the release valve in the OPEN position (3b.) and
with saddle fully lowered, locate and remove the oil filler
plug. Pump 6 to 8 full strokes. This will help release
any pressurized air which may be trapped within the
reservoir. Reinstall the oil filler plug.
