3.4. Jacking
Weight Distribution
Up to 80% of the lifted load is carried by the front jack wheels, placing exceptional stress on the point of contact with the supporting
floor. for this reason use on a hard level concrete surface only.
3.4.1. Turn the handle clockwise to close the valve and commence pumping the handle up and down using maximum strokes until the vehicle
reaches the working height.
Note:
If the jack becomes overloaded, a safety excess pressure valve will open, and stop the vehicle from lifting further.
3.5. Lowering
3.5.1. The lowering speed is controlled by the amount you turn the handle. Lower carefully, avoiding sudden release.
WARNING!
Ensure that there are no persons or obstacles beneath the vehicle, or in the path of its descent.

ImpoRtANt!
Only fully qualified personnel should attempt maintenance or repair.
4.1. When the jack is not in use, the ram and the handle socket should be in their lowest positions to minimise
corrosion. remove the handle to deactivate the jack.
4.2. Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts with a good quality oil on a regular basis.
4.3. To check the hydraulic oil level, fully lower the jack and remove filler plug (fig. 3). The correct oil level should be approximately 5mm
below the filler opening. If oil level is low, fill as required. Pump unloaded jack 5 or 6 times to expel air and then refit plug.
Note:
Use a good quality jack oil, such as sEALEY HYDrAULIC JACK OIL.
WARNING!
DO NOT use brake fluid, or any fluid other than hydraulic jack fluid as this may cause serious damage to the jack and will
invalidate the warranty!
4.4. Before each use, check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose parts, or any visible damage to welds, ram, pump, saddle, lifting arm, frame
and all parts including nuts, bolts, pins and other fasteners. If any suspect item is found, remove jack from service and take necessary
action to remedy the problem.
DO NOT use the jack if it is believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock. Inspect and take appropriate action.
4.5. Every three months remove the locking rings on the caster wheels and lubricate the ball bearings with grease.
4.6. After a year of extensive use, the oil should be replaced in order to extend the life of your equipment. To drain the oil, remove the filler
cap and valve. Make sure that no dirt is allowed to enter the hydraulic system. see 4.3. for refill instructions.
4.7. Periodically check the pump piston and piston rod for signs of corrosion. Clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.
