MAINTENANCE

NOTICE:

 

Use only good quality hydraulic jack oil. Avoid mixing different types 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. Premium hydraulic jack oil is recommended.

Adding/ Changing Oil

For best performance and longest life, replace the complete fluid supply at least once per year.

1. With saddle fully lowered remove cover plate, then oil filler screw.

2. Lay jack on its side and drain fluid into a suitable container.

NOTICE:

 

Dispose of hydraulic fluid in accordance with local environmental regulations.

3. Set jack in its upright, level position.

4. Fill with oil. Proper oil level is just below the rim of the opening. Reinstall the oil filler screw.

5. Perform 

Bleeding/Venting Trapped Air 

procedure (page 2 & 3).

  

Lubrication

A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points, axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure that 

wheels move freely and the pump functions smoothly. To help ensure trouble free operation, an inline air dryer and 

oiler is recommended.

Cleaning

Periodically check the ram for signs of rust or corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe with an oily cloth.

NOTICE:

 

Do not use sandpaper or abrasive material on ram and pump piston surfaces.

Storage

When not in use, store the jack with saddle fully lowered.

ASSEMBLY

1. Remove handle and axle jack base from packaging.

2. Line up the square handle tube and the locking 

release member with the mating assembly on the 

base frame.

OPERATION

 

(ref. Figure 1)

Lifting
NOTICE: 

These jacks are equipped with handle position locks. To adjust the handle, release lock device by pulling the 

lever up, lever is spring loaded and will lock into desired position. Ensure lever locking mechanism is fully engaged 

before leaving.

1. Connect adequate air source to the air supply inlet.

2. Follow the vehicle manufacturer’s recommended guidelines for lifting. Engage the emergency brake and chock 

each unlifted wheel in both directions to prevent inadvertent vehicle movement.

3. 

Close the release valve by turning the handle knob clockwise until firm resistance is felt.

4. Center jack saddle under lift point, then squeeze the lift control valve until saddle contacts the lift point. To lift, 

continue squeezing the lift control valve until load reaches desired height. Simply release your grip on the lift 

control valve to end lift event. 

5. Transfer the load to appropriately rated jack stands.

WARNING:

  Never wire, clamp or otherwise disable the lift control valve to function by other than 

operator's hand.

WARNING:

  Only attachments and/or adapters supplied by the manufacturer shall be used. 

Lowering

WARNING:

  Clear all tools and personnel before lowering load. Open release valve slowly. The further handle 

knob is turned counter-clockwise, the faster the load will descend. Maintain control of load at all times.

1. Raise load high enough to clear jack stands.

2. Remove jack stands carefully.

3. Slowly turn handle knob counter-clockwise, but no more than 1 full turn.

  

If the load fails to lower

:

    

a. Use another jack to raise vehicle high enough to reinstall jack stands.

    

b. Remove the malfunctioning jack and then the jack stands.

    

c.  Use the functioning jack to lower vehicle. 

4. After removing jack from under vehicle, fully retract the jack to reduce ram exposure to rust and contamination.
