IMPORTANT: BEFORE FIRST USE

Perform the following System Air Purge Procedure to remove any air that may have been 
introduced into the hydraulic system as a result of product shipment and handling. This step is to 
be completed without any weight on the jack.
1. Turn release valve counter-clockwise on full turn to the open position.
2. Rapidly pump the handle 6-8 times. Leave handle in down position to expose oil fill plug.
3. Remove the cover plate, then use a flat blade screwdriver, push the oil fill plug slightly to the
side to purge trapped air from system. (Use caution not to tear or puncture the oil plug.)
4. Turn release valve clockwise to the closed position.
5. Jack is now ready for use. Check for proper pump action. (Repeat steps if neccessary).

SYSTEM AIR PURGE PROCEDURE

OPERATION

RAISING THE JACK

1. Block the vehicle’s wheels for lifting stability. 
Secure the load to prevent inadvertent shifting 
and movement.
2. Position the jack near desired lift point.
3. Set the Parking Brake in the vehicle.
4. Refer to the vehicle manufacturer owner’s 
manual to locate approved lifting points on the 
vehicle. Position the jack so that the saddle is 
centered and will contact the load lifting point 
firmly.
5. Assemble the handle; ensure to align with 
slots.
6.  Close the release valve by turning it 
clockwise until it is firmly closed.
7. Before raising the vehicle double check and 
verify the saddle is centered and also has full 
contact with the lifting point.
8.  Pump handle to lift until saddle contacts 
load. Continue to pump the jack handle to lift 
the vehicle to the desired height. After lifting, 
support the load with appropriately rated 
vehicle support stands before working on the 
vehicle.

LOWERING THE JACK

1. Raise load high enough to allow clearance 
for the jack stands to be removed, then 
carefully remove jack stands.
2. Remove support stands.
3. Grasp the handle firmly with both hands.
Securely hold on to the jack handle so your 
hands do not slip and ensure the release valve 
does not rapidly lower.
4. Carefully open the Release Valve by slowly 
turning the handle counter-clockwise. (Do not 
allow bystanders around the jack or under the 
load when lowering the jack.)
5. After removing jack from under the load, 
keep jack in the lowered position to reduce 
exposure to rust and contamination.

CAUTION:

                                 NEVER WIRE, CLAMP 
OR OTHERWISE DISABLE THE LIFT 
CONTROL VALVE TO FUNCTION BY ANY 
MEANS OTHER THAN BY USING THE 
OPERATOR'S HAND. USE THE HANDLE 
PROVIDED WITH THIS PRODUCT OR AN 
AUTHORIZED REPLACEMENT HANDLE TO 
ENSURE  PROPER  RELEASE  VALVE           
OPERATION. DO NOT USE EXTENSIONS 
ON THE OPERATING HANDLE.

WARNING:

                                   USE  EXTREME 
CAUTION WHEN LOWERING THE JACK. 
THE JACK HANDLE MAY TURN RAPIDLY. 
OPENING THE RELEASE VALVE TOO 
FAST CAN CAUSE THE JACK TO LOWER 
RAPIDLY. FAILURE TO HEAD THESE 
WARNINGS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS 
INJURY OR DEATH.
