OPERATION
Raise saddle:
1. Locate and close release valve by turning knob
clockwise firmly, then pump the pump handle until
the load is contacted.
2. Follow vehicle manufacturers recommended proce-
dures for removing the load as outlined in vehicle
service manual or repair guide.
3. Secure load with provided restraints. Ensure load's
center of gravity is centered on the saddle and load
is stable before moving jack.
Lower saddle:
1. Slowly, gently turn the release valve knob
counterclockwise, NEVER MORE THAN 1/2 FULL
TURN until the load is completely lowered.
2. Immediately transfer the load to an appropriate
repair fixture.
Be sure all tools and personnel are clear before
lowering load. 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.
MAINTENANCE
Important: Use only a good grade 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.
Adding oil
1. With saddle fully lowered, 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 saddle fully lowered, set jack in its upright,
level position. 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. Set jack in its level upright position.
4. Fill with good quality jack oil. We recommend Mobil
DTE 13 or equivalent. Reinstall oil filler plug.
Lubrication
A periodic coating of light lubricating oil to pivot points,
axles and hinges will help to prevent rust and assure
that wheels, casters and pump assemblies move
freely.
Cleaning
Periodically check the ram for signs of rust or
corrosion. Clean as needed and wipe with an oily
cloth.
Note: Never use sandpaper or abrasive material on
these surfaces!
Storage
When not in use, store the jack with pump piston and
saddle in lowest position.
Study, understand, and follow all printed materials
provided with/on this device before use. Do not
exceed rated capacity. Use only on hard, level,
seamless surface. Use of this jack is limited to the
removal, installation and transportation of
transmissions, transfer cases and transaxles.
Adequately support the vehicle before starting repairs.
Failure to heed these markings may result in personal
injury and/or property damage.
Ensure the center of gravity is centered on the saddle.
Use only chains and slings provided. If loaded jack
must be moved, make certain that load is secured by
appropriate means, is stable, is in lowest possible
position. This is a lifting and lowering device only.
Transfer load immediately to appropriate support
device for service or repair. No alterations shall be
made to this product.
