Keep the jack clean and lubricate all moving parts with acid free oil on a regular basis.
6.1.3.
Before each use check for broken, cracked, bent, or loose parts, or any visible damage to 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.

use the jack if believed to have been subjected to abnormal load or shock load.
6.1.5.
Periodically check the pump piston and the ram for signs of corrosion. clean exposed areas with a clean oiled cloth.
