Ranger Floor Jack
6
P/N 5900393 — July 2017 — Rev. B
Setup
The Jack comes mostly assembled; all you need to do is to set up the Handle.
To set up your Jack
:
1.
Use the screw to connect the two halves of the Handle.
2.
Insert the bottom of the Handle into the Handle Sleeve.
Make sure the bottom of the Handle goes all the way down into the Handle Sleeve. The bottom of
the Handle needs to fit over the top of the release valve or the Jack will not work correctly.
3.
Insert the screw into the Handle just above the Handle Sleeve and screw it in; this holds the Handle
in place.
4.
Turn the Handle Grip clockwise (to the right) until it stops.
You only need to use a moderate amount of force; do not twist it too hard.
5.
Pump the Handle to make sure the Jack is working.
The Lifting Arm should go up. If not, purge air from the Hydraulic System.
If you continue to have problems, refer to
Troubleshooting
for assistance.
Operation
This section describes how to raise and lower a vehicle.
⚠
WARNING
Only use the Jack on a hard, flat, dry surface.
To raise a vehicle
:
1.
Move the vehicle to the desired location.
2.
Put the vehicle into park and put on the parking brake.
If the vehicle is a manual transmission, put it in a gear, not in neutral. Chock the wheels if desired.
3.
Position the Jack under the vehicle, with the Saddle Pad under a designated lifting point.
4.
Turn the Handle Grip clockwise until it stops; do not overtighten.
5.
Pump the Handle up and down. The longer the pump, the more the Lifting Arm goes up.
6.
Stop pumping when the vehicle is at the desired height.
Go slightly higher than the height of the jack stands you plan to use to support the vehicle.
Refer to
bendpak.com/shop-equipment/jack-stands/
for more information about jack
stands that are available from BendPak Ranger.
7.
Place the jack stands under the vehicle at locations recommended by the vehicle manufacturer.
⚠
WARNING
Do not get under the vehicle without it being supported by jack stands.
The Jack
is not designed to maintain heavy loads for long periods of time.
Do
not try to put jack stands under both ends of a vehicle at the same time.
8.
Turn the Handle Grip counterclockwise to lower the Jack, lowering the vehicle onto the jack stand.
9.
When the vehicle is on the jack stands, move the Jack out of the way.
