GENERAL OPERATION
NOTICE During shipment or handling, air in the pump can become trapped in the
hydraulic system causing the pump to malfunction.
BEFORE USE
Bleeding The Pump:
1. Set Pump (1) flat on a level surface.
2. Remove the Fill Screw (A). The O-ring (B) should come off with it.
3. The fluid level should be near the bottom of the opening. If required, add high grade
hydraulic fluid.
4. Make sure the O-ring (B) is still in place around the Fill Screw (A) and thread the Fill
Screw into the Pump securely. Do not use thread seal tape.
5. Firmly close the Release Valve (C) by turning it clockwise.
6. Press the tip of the Coupling (D) against a hard surface and pump the pump handle.
7. Continue pumping, until the hydraulic fluid coming out the end of the coupler tip is free
of air bubbles.
8. Recheck the fluid level and add fluid if
necessary.
9. Turn the Release Valve counterclock-
wise to release the pressure in the pump
and hose.
10. Change the hydraulic fluid yearly.
Remove the Fill Screw (A) and tilt the
Pump (1) to drain out the old fluid. Refill
the hydraulic fluid and bleed the system
several times to ensure all air is out of
the system.

b. If using the Flange Base (15) or
Flange Head (14): Thread the Flange
Base onto the Ram completely and
align the Flange Head to it. The
Flange Base and Flange Head must
only be used together to prevent off-
center load.
c. Position the Ram (2) so that the Base
is resting against a frame member
opposite the damaged area. It must
also be in line with the direction in
which the damaged area needs to
be pushed. The vehicle body part
