CAPACITY: 10 TON
PORTABLE AIR LIFT JACK
9.
After work is done, depress the air valve to raise the vehicle just high enough to clear the jack stand saddles. Be sure load is stable. If it
is not, lower the load back onto the jack stands. Make appropriate setup corrections and repeat the step again. Remove the jack stands
from under the vehicle, being very careful not to move the vehicle. After the jack stands are removed, very slowly and carefully lower the
vehicle down to the ground.
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
This is the safety alert symbol used for the PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE section of this manual to alert you to potential personal
injury hazards. Obey all instructions to avoid possible injury or death.
1. Always store the jack in a well protected area where it will not be exposed to inclement weather, corrosive vapors, abrasive dust, or any
other harmful elements. The jack must be cleaned of water, snow, sand, grit, oil, grease or other foreign matter before using.
IMPORTANT:
Water can enter the jack's cylinder through the shop's compressed air system or the top of the jack where the ram is located.
Water can enter the top of the jack if left out in inclement weather or used near a wash rack or place where water/fluid pressure is used to
clean the underside of vehicles or other components. Water in the jack's cylinder can cause the interior wall of the cylinder to rust and cause
damage to the ram's air seal rendering the jack inoperable. An inoperable jack caused by rust or contamination is not eligible for warranty
consideration. A jack believed to contain water must be serviced at an authorized repair center as soon as possible.
2.
The jack must be lubricated periodically in order to prevent premature wearing of parts. A general purpose grease must be applied to
the axle where the wheels rotate and a very thin coat on the ram. Do not lubricate any portion of the lift saddle and make sure the
saddle is free from grease, any kind of lubricant, or debris before using the jack. Use a high quality grease to lube the cylinder wall.
3.
An air leak requires immediate repair which must be performed in a dirt-free environment by qualified hydraulic repair personnel who
are familiar with this equipment. Authorized Service Centers are recommended.
4.
Every jack owner is responsible for keeping the jack label clean and readable. Contact Sunex for a replacement label if your jack's
label is not readable.
5.
Inspect the jack before each use. Do not use the jack if any component is cracked, broken, bent, shows signs of damage, or leaks air.
Do not use the jack if it has loose or missing hardware or components, or is modified in any way. Take corrective action before using the
jack again.
6.
Do not attempt to make any repairs unless you are a qualified repair person that is familiar with this equipment.
INSPECTION
Visual inspection should be made before each use of the jack, checking for leaking hydraulic fluid and damaged, loose or missing parts.
Each jack must be inspected by a manufacturer’s repair facility immediately if subjected to an abnormal load or shock. Any jack which
appears to be damaged in any way, is found to be badly worn, or operates abnormally MUST BE REMOVED FROM SERVICE until necessary
repairs are made by a manufacturer’s authorized repair facility. It is recommended that an annual inspection of the jack be made by a
manufacturer’s authorized repair facility and that any defective parts, decals or warning labels be replaced with manufacturer’s specified
parts. A list of authorized repair facilities is available from the manufacturer.
PROPER STORAGE
It is recommended that the jack be stored in a dry location with all wheels touching the ground on a relatively level surface.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Assuming the source of compressed air is functioning properly and supplying air pressure to the jack's air valve, the only causes for a
jack's inability to lift a load would be the jack's air valve is blocked or its ram seal is damaged. In either case, the jack must be taken to
an authorized service center for repair.
OWNER/USER RESPONSIBILITY
The owner and/or user must have an understanding of the manufacturer’s operating instructions and warnings before using this jack.
Personnel involved in the use and operation of equipment shall be careful, competent, trained, and qualified in the safe operation of the
equipment and its proper use when servicing motor vehicles and their components. Warning information should be emphasized and
understood. If the operator is not fluent in English, the manufacturer’s instructions and warning shall be read to and discussed with the
operator in the operator’s native language by the purchaser/owner, making sure that the operator comprehends its contents. Owner and/or
user must study and maintain for future reference the manufacturers’ instructions. Owner and/or user is responsible for keeping all warning
labels and instruction manuals legible and intact. Replacement labels and literature are available from the manufacturer.
