JACK STAND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Install the support column (#3) into the stand base (#2), align the holes in the stand base (#2) with the holes at the bottom of the
support column (#3).
2. Install the bolt (#1) through the stand base (#2) and support column (#3) and thread the nut (#4) onto the bolt (#1) and tighten.
3. Place the saddle column (#8) into the support column (#3).
JACK SETUP
PLEASE REFER TO THE EXPLODED VIEW DRAWING IN THIS MANUAL IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY PARTS.
1. The saddle (#3) should be in its lowest position. Remove the oil filler plug in the reservoir of the hydraulic power unit (#29).
2. Look inside the oil fill plug hole. You should be able to see the top of the power unit’s cylinder. The hydraulic fluid level should be no
higher than the top of the cylinder. Correct the fluid level if it is not at the proper height.
CAUTION:
In order to prevent seal damage and
jack failure, never use alcohol, hydraulic brake fluid, or transmission oil in the jack. Use hydraulic jack oil, a light turbine oil, Chevron
Hydraulic Oil AW ISO 32 or Unocal Unax AW 150.
3. Close the release valve by turning the handle (#26) clockwise until it stops. Pump the jack against a load of at least 500 pounds
(225 Kgs). After the load is raised to maximum height, slightly turn the handle (#26) in a counterclockwise direction so the load is
very slowly lowered, while simultaneously and quickly pumping the handle 5 or 6 full incremental pump strokes. After pumping,
lower the lift arm to its full rest position.
4. Repeat steps 3) through 4) until all the air has been purged from the system. Reinstall the cover plate.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
This is the safety alert symbol used for the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS section of this manual to alert you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
IMPORTANT:
Before attempting to raise any vehicle, check vehicle service manual for recommended lifting surfaces.
JACK STAND OPERATION:
1. Make sure the work floor is clean and free of debris and obstacles.
2. Chock the vehicle's tires that will not be lifted. Make sure the emergency brake is on and the vehicle's transmission is either in the park
mode or in gear if a manual transmission.
3. Raise the vehicle to a safe working height and make sure the jack and vehicle setup are stable before positioning the jack stands.
DO
NOT CRAWL UNDER THE VEHICLE TO POSITION OR REMOVE STANDS.
4. Position the jack stands right below the areas of the vehicle support points as specified by the vehicle manufacturer.
5. Lift the saddle columns as close to the vehicle as possible without the saddles on the columns coming in contact with the vehicle.
Insert the locking pin.
6. Slowly and carefully lower the vehicle on the jack stands. Shock loads or loads dropped abruptly on stands can cause premature metal
fatigue or even stand failure depending on the weight of the vehicle and the speed of decent that impacts the stands' support columns.
The load should be supported in the center of the support column saddles, not the locating lugs of the saddles.
DO NOT CRAWL
UNDER THE VEHICLE TO POSITION OR REMOVE STANDS.
7
Check the load for stability. If the load is not stable, lift the load off the stands and correctly reposition the stands.
8. When work is completed, raise the vehicle high enough off the stands where the stands can be easily removed.
JACK OPERATION:
1.
To raise load:
Turn the handle in a clockwise direction until tight. Position the jack under the load. Proceed to pump the handle in order
to raise the lift arm to the load. As the saddle at the end of the lift arm gets closer to the load, reposition the jack so the saddle will
contact the load firmly and the load is centered on the saddle. Make sure the saddle is correctly positioned. Raise the load to the desired
work height. Place jack stands of appropriate capacity at the vehicle manufacturers's recommended support areas that provide stable
support for the raised vehicle.
DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING OR REMOVING THE
JACK STANDS!
Once jack stands are positioned, turn the handle VERY SLOWLY. Lower the load to rest on the jack stands. Inspect the
relationship between the jack stands and load to make sure the setup is stable and safe. If the setup is not stable or safe, follow the
preceding steps until corrected.
2.
To lower load:
Follow the procedures mentioned in "To raise load" section of the OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS in order to raise the load
off the jack stands. Once the load has cleared the jack stands, remove the jack stands from under the load and away from the work area.
Turn handle very slowly in a counterclockwise direction until the load is completely lowered to the ground. Once the jack's lifting saddle
has cleared the load, remove the jack from under the load.
CAUTION:
Keep hands and feet away from the hinge mechanism of the jack.
DO NOT CRAWL UNDER VEHICLE WHILE LIFTING VEHICLE OR PLACING OR REMOVING THE JACK STANDS!
