OPERATION 

Lifting 
1.    Assemble 2 pc handle. Ensure that 
spring clips align with slots. 
2. Secure the load to prevent inadvertent 
shifting and movement. 
3. Position the jack near desired lift point. 
Close the release valve by turning it 
clockwise until it is firmly closed. 

 

CAUTION: use the handle provided with this product 

or an authorized replacement handle to ensure 

proper release valve operation. Do not use an 

extender on the air hose nor the operationg handle. 

When using to loft vehicle, lift only on the 

manufacturer’s recommended lift point and in 

accordance with the published guidelines in your 

vehicle owner’s manual. Always use jack stands to 

support the load immediately after lifting.   

 

4. Insert and secure handle into handle 
sleeve. Pump handle or squeeze the lift 
control valve until saddle contacts load. To 
end air operation, simply release the grip on 
the lift control valve. 

NEVER WIRE, CLAMP OR 

OTHERWISE DISABLE THE LIFT CONTROL VALVE 

TO FUNCTION BY ANY MEANS OTHER THAN BY 

USING THE OPERATOR’S HAND. 

5. Raise load to desired height, then 
immediately transfer the load to 
appropriately-rated support devices such as 
jack stands.   
 

 

This is a lifting device only. It is designed to lift part of 

the total vehicle (one wheel or axle), always wear 

safety glasses when using this equipment. Center 

load on saddle before lifting. Never work on, under or 

around load until it is properly supported. Transfer the 

load immediately to appropriate lyrated jack stands. 

Do not use this product for any purpose other than 

that for which it was intended. It is owner’s 

responsibility to keep labels and instructional material 

legible and available.Replacement labels and 

menuals are available from the menufacturer. Failure 

to heed these and all other warnings pertaining to this   

product can result in sudden loss of lifted load   

resulting in death, presonal injury or property 

damage. 

 

Lowering 
1. Raise load enough to carefully remove 
jack stands. 
2. Inert handle onto release valve and slowly 
turn handle counterclockwise, but no more 
than 1/2 turn. If load fails to lower, carefully 
transfer the load to another lifting device and 
jack stands. Carefully remove affected jack, 
and then the jack stands. Lower the load, 
again by slowly turning the release valve no 
more than 1/2 turn.   
 
 

Be sure all tools and personnel are clear before 

lowering load, dangerous dynamic shock loads are 

created by quickly opening and closing the release 

valve as the load is being lowered.The resulting 

overload may cause hydraulic system failure which 

could cause severe personal injury and/or property 

damage. 

3. After removing jack from under the load, 
push ram and handle sleeve down to reduce 
exposure to rust and contamination.   

MAINTENANCE 

Important: Use only a good grade hydraulic 
jack oil.Avoid mixing different typer of fluid 
and NEVER use brake fluid, turbine oil, 
transmission fluid, motor oil or glycerin. 
Improper fluid can cause premature failure of 
the jack and the potential for sudden and 
immediate loss of load.   
Adding oil 
1. With saddle fully lowered and pump piston 
fully depressed, set jack in its upright, level 
position. Remove oil filler plug. 
2. Fill until oil is level with the filler plug hole, 
reinstall oil filler plug. 
Changing oil   
For best performance and longest 
life,replace the complete fluid supply at least 
once per year. 
1. With saddlefully lowered and pump piston 
fully depressed, remove the oil filler plug. 
2. Lay the jack, on its side and drain the fluid 
into a suitable container. 

Note: Dispose of hydraulic fluid in accordance with 

local regulations. 

3. Fill with good quality jack oil.Reinstall iol 
filler plug.    We recommend Mobil DTE13 or 
equivalent.
